If you hadn't heard, the re-imagining of the 80s mini-series V will premiere on ABC next week. Of course, if you hadn't heard you're either deaf, in a coma, or haven't left your house in weeks. ABC's marketing department has opened its eyes, finally, and thrown out all the stops on their new sci-fi drama about a group of aliens that arrive on Earth playing nice, but who secretly want to eat us (yeah, as in literally eat us). So…
Read: Has ABC Finally Figured Out How to Market Sci-Fi with V?
Well, Defying Gravity will be airing its 13th and final episode this week on Canada's 'Space' channel, five episodes after it was unceremoniously pulled from the ABC schedule. Sadly, there is still a demand for those final five episodes here – and the demand is being answered with silence. If ABC plans on finishing off the series for US fans, they apparently don't intend on telling anybody about it. With that in mind, we thought it might be some…
It seems that ABC might be just as confused about the future of Defying Gravity as the rest of us are. Yesterday TVOvermind reported that Defying Gravity had been canceled. Although no official announcement from ABC had been made, it seemed clear by ABC's actions, and the show's ratings, on what had happened, and many other sites also reported the cancelation (we did mention that nothing official had been announced, by the way). After publishing our article I personally attempted…
Read: 'Defying Gravity' Not Actually Canceled Yet According to ABC
For the small (and we mean very small) group of fans who loved this show, it is a sad day, as it seems that ABC has canceled Defying Gravity without airing all of it's planned (and filmed) thirteen episodes. While no official announcement has come from ABC yet, the decision was made clear during the September 13 broadcast where ABC announced it as being the Season Finale and didn't show any previews for the next episode at the end.
The move doesn't…
The summer space series Defying Gravity is a show that I have been enjoying quite a bit over the past few weeks. However, despite my love of this series, and its centering on the lives of these astronaut's exploring our solar system, it seems that none of the rest of you are watching it…at all. News broke a few days ago that Canada's CTV will be moving the series to Friday night's in Canada, which seems to be a dreaded sci-fi dumping ground. So what will ABC do with this great little series? Your guess is as good as mine (and the folks over at TVbythenumbers).
On Sunday, August 2 at 9 pm EST ABC will premiere it's new summer filler series, Defying Gravity which stars Ron Livingston and Laura Harris. But this new series is no filler, and just might be the best new show I've seen all summer. We'll save the full review for later, and instead focus on giving you a first look at Defying Gravity, and to hopefully make you want to tune in for its two-hour premiere on August 2.

Defying Gravity is a sexy, provocative thriller set in the very near future against the backdrop of our solar system, in which the eight astronauts from five countries undertake a mysterious six-year international space mission on the spaceship Antares.
They can't run from karma, however, as their past actions reveal intimate and interconnected relationships that have a strange effect on the present. As the astronauts travel towards Venus, we travel into their past with flashbacks to earlier years from the…
If you're a fan of sci-fi and haven't yet heard of the new summer filler, Defying Gravity, premiering on ABC on August 2, catch up fast. The series is well put together and fantastic! More on that later. For now, I have a few episode summaries for the two-hour premiere, as well as the third episode that will air on 8/9. The series starts on ABC on Sunday, August 2, from 9pm to 11pm (Eastern standard time) and then…
Fox TV Studios, Vancouver's Omni Film Productions and the Canadian network CTV are teaming up to bring you the show that's being dubbed "Grey's Anatomy in space". Yeah, that's a weird tagline, right? Perhaps a longer explanation is in order.
Back in 2004 the BBC produced a series called Space Odyssey: Voyage to the Planets, which is the inspiration for Defying Gravity. Space Odyssey was broadcasted as a docudrama about a group of astronauts traveling to different planets. Defying Gravity has…
