Now it has Ugly Betty and Gossip Girl, as well.

I

Gilmore Girls, but for me Alexis will always be Rory.

I'm really looking forward to Twilight

For those of you in the US, Sci-Fi Channel is going to start airing JoA on Friday, July 11, in it's old time slot of 8:00pm, sandwiched between Stargate and Doctor Who. I have no idea why Sci-Fi is airing it, since it's owned by NBC, and JoA by CBS, and the fact that JoA is hardly what I would call science fiction. Of course, Sci-Fi also airs wrestling.

Oh, well. It will be a good bit of nostalgia to watch the show on TV with commercials again, and in its old time slot to boot. And hopefully the theme song in every episode. I have the DVDs, but I'll definitely watch until Sci-Fi decides to stop airing it.

That's fantastic that they're going to start airing it.

Maybe it'll get more fans.

But Sci-Fi?

How exactly is JoA sci-fi?

shadowcrawler05 · 06-23-2008, 12:21 PM

Well, Sci-Fi did air the soap Passions a couple years ago in an effort to attract female viewers. I guess we simple womenfolk don't like real science fiction. But that's for another forum.

My only idea as to why Sci-Fi decided to air JoA is because it has an incredibly slight supernatural feel to it. Sort of. G-d appearing in human form to a teenage girl could be considered supernatural. I suppose. Sort of.

Or maybe someone at the network was a fan.

Haha, yeah they've all starred in a tv show. But, I don't watch those two so I wouldn't have such a problem. It's just that I really liked both Gilmore Girls and Joan of Arcadia so it's a bit harder.

Yeah, it's not really sci-fi in my opinion, but it is kinda fantastical so I guess in that respect it could work.

I agree with Shadow on this one... but i like the second reason better

Sisterhood premiere

Amber looks really pretty, in a more natural way that we usually see her, but okay, seriously, that dress pant suit thing?

**Just Peachy.** · 07-28-2008, 11:51 PM

Thanks for that

I have to say that I don't like it, I think it makes her look older then what she is.

I don't like her outfit at all. But I like her hair and make up. I think she looks really pretty, not that she's not usually pretty.

**Just Peachy.** · 07-29-2008, 12:59 AM

I like her make up as well

We don't get the movie until October

shadowcrawler05 · 07-29-2008, 06:24 AM

Hair and makeup are nice. I think just about anyone looks better with less rather than more.

I do think that outfit would look better if it weren't monochromatic. As it is, it kind of looks like a leotard, and makes me wonder if Amber was planning to ride a pommel horse home.

**Just Peachy.** · 07-29-2008, 06:39 PM

I'm having a bad morning and that just made me laugh!

KC and LP Fan · 08-10-2008, 07:33 PM

Just saw the commercial for Joan of Arcadia on Sci-fi

Totally excited despite owning the DVD's

**Just Peachy.** · 08-10-2008, 07:44 PM

That's great that they're advertising it
