NEW DRAMATIC SERIES

Discovery's Science channel, normally a conventional wow-the-world-sure-is-weird stream of shows like How It's Made (the stories behind everyday stuff), Oddities (extraordinary science artifacts), and Punkin Chunkin (designing devices to hurl pumpkins at things), has been steadily increasing its sci-fi footprint in an attempt to draw new viewers--imaginative and passionate folks who could be successfully reminded that the first word in sci-fi is "science."

Science's latest savvy move is to rescue a contemporary, hard-science Canadian series that was successful in the north but that's virtually unknown in the States: ReGenesis. The show, which aired for four seasons on Canada's The Movie Network from 2004 to 2008, follows a team of scientists at the North American Biotechnology Advisory Commission (NorBAC) as they investigate global use and abuse of advanced biotechnology.
