In the small town of Wolf Lake, things are seldom what they seem. Behind the peaceful veneer of this sleepy Pacific Northwest town lies a secret hidden from the outside world for hundreds of years. This secret has formed the backbone of the town’s existence, yet it remains unknown to many people who live in the community it most affects. The secret has infiltrated every aspect of the townspeople’s lives, with sometimes dangerous and deadly results. That secret is about to surface in a manner that will change the fate of everyone involved for years to come.

Time is quickly running out for Keller and Atlantis.
SCI FI Channel wraps up the week on Saturday July 19 with a special FRIGHT NIGHT featuring such films as
“Dawn of the Dead” followed by “SAW” and “SAW II”.
Wow, that’s a lot of marathons. It’s like. . . a marathon of marathons. Is that even possible?
“Wow, that’s a lot of marathons.”
Actually, that’s pretty much standard operating procedure for SciFi. They do a lot of daytime marathons, particularly of shows they have a financial interest in, like Andromeda and The Outer Limits. I’m just glad to see them playing actual scripted sci-fi programming on four of the five evenings. That almost never happens!
“From 7 to 10PM ET are 3 more episodes of “Star Trek: The Next Generation†— ACQUISITION – OASIS and DETAINED.”
I think that’s supposed to be “Star Trek: Enterprise”.
As Scotty would say — “I think year right laddie!”
I only really watch four TV shows: Stargate Atlantis, BSG, Doctor Who, and the Daily Show. That’s all I have time for (Although if SciFi gets season 2 of the Sara Jane adventures, I’ll make room for that). I didn’t realize SciFi had marathons like this. Hmm…almost makes me want to reevaluate my schedule.
