Language: en-US

Type of Problem: Incorrect_content

Extra Details: Hello,

I'd like make you notice that this serie is not composed by 26 episodes, but by 13 episodes with every episode formed by two segments. Consulting these two articles taken from wayback machine, they confirm this:

and

So could you fix the season?

SciFi is not the original broadcaster of this series. It was originally broadcasted on Fox in 2001. Do you have any informations about that broadcast ?

Well, I rebuild the story of this serie, rather troubled. It was scheduled to air on Fox in 2001 but it suffered many delays.

Anyway, since in 2001 the wayback machine didn't exist, the closest way for the story of this show is wikipedia. Wikipedia says that the last 3 episodes (and it means that every episode is composed by two segments) Fox never aired them.

Than SciFi purchased the show from Fox and it aired the serie from the beginning, inlcuding the last 3 episodes.

So the conlusion is:

1) I will add the SciFi channel other than Fox (this I can do iy myself)

2) I don't think that SciFi was wasted its time to change the airing of the episodes creating one episode taking two single episodes of Fox, it's more likely that SciFi took the series from Fox as it was and broadcasted in the same way.

The wayback machine already exist at that time, the Fox mainpage is archived since year 2000. Even if most of the archived pages aren't usable, maybe some subpage are eventually accessible.

1) I will add the SciFi channel other than Fox (this I can do iy myself)

This should not be done. Only the first network broadcasting the series should be listed. The episodes that weren't broadcasted by that network should be listed in the specials season.

2) I don't think that SciFi was wasted its time to change the airing of the episodes creating one episode taking two single episodes of Fox, it's more likely that SciFi took the series from Fox as it was and broadcasted in the same way.

What we need is not what you think, but proofs.And, unless there are absolutely nothing else available, Wikipedia is not a proof.

We currently have 2 pages with an episode list:

  • The Wikipedia page that list them as double episodes.
  • a Fandom that list them as separate episodes. The introduction of that page indicates that they were produced as double episodes, but doesn't indicate if they were broadcasted this way or if the 2 parts were considered as 2 episodes at broadcast time.

So, we will need proof to determine who is correct. Personnally, I will not have time before the middle of August to search the newspaper archives.
