Axiom’s Edge Science Fiction and Fantasy

Finales for Chuck and Heroes Tonight: The first two thirds of NBC’s Monday night Science Fiction and Fantasy block will wrap up their current seasons tonight. The producers of Chuck promise that tonight’s finale will offer a series changing sequence of events, which is of course assuming that the series will return for another season. Fans are also using this opportunity to get a message to show sponsor Subway to save the series (for more information, check our Save My Show site). Heroes, which currently has a better chance of returning for another season, will offer the culmination of Volume 4: Fugitives tonight. In this one, Nathan Petrelli must face the situation he helped create which has turned people with abilities into fugitives.  The two finales kick off at 8 PM EST on NBC.

Eureka, Warehouse 13 Premiere Dates: The long delayed second half of the third season of Eureka will finally air starting in July. Season 3 was originally truncated last Summer because of the writer’s strike, so the Sci Fi Channel decided to extend the original episode order beyond thirteen and air the second half of the season later. The first of ten episodes (cut back from the originally planned thirteen) for Season 3.5 will bow on July 10th as Eureka makes the move to Friday nights. Three nights prior to that, newcomer Warehouse 13 takes up Eureka’s old timeslot with its two hour premiere. That series will follow two government agents assigned to a warehouse that contains a large assortment of mysterious, supernatural artifacts. The Sci Fi Channel’s latest installment in the Stargate franchise, Stargate: Universe, was originally announced as a Summer series, but the website for the show is now indicating a Fall 2009 bow. Check back in May for our Summer 2009 Science Fiction and Fantasy Television preview.
