One of three new drama series from Syfy is a spaceship-based show from Deep Space Nine ’s Robert H Wolfe

When Stargate: Universe came to an end earlier this year, we were all mourning the fact that for the first time in 24 years – since the premiere of Star Trek: The Next Generation – there was n⭕o spaceship ship in production on 🌜US TV.

But the channel that was being accused of killing the genre – Syfy – has rectified the situation. Today, the channel announced three new drama series, and among them is an as-yet-untitled spaceship-based show from Robert Hewitt Wolfe, of Deep Space Nine and Andromeda fame (or infaꦬmy, depending on how you want🍒 to look at it).

The press🎃 release (posted in full on ) describes the show: “After decades of war, the newly-formed Unity Democracy orders a volatile mix of humans and trans-humans to lead the Starship Defender on ꦐan expedition in search of lost worlds requiring law and order.” Yep, that sounds like a space-based version of US foreign policy.

The other two shows are:

• Seeing Things (working title), about a cop who becomes a ghost after his violent death and the only person who can help close his last case is a socially awkward man who realises that the hallucinations he's had all his life may not be a figment of his imagination. Exec producers include David Slack ( Law & Order , Person Of Interest , Lie To Me ) and Scott Rosenberg ( Happy Town , the US Life On Mars ), while Slack and Gabrielle Stanton ( Haven , Castle , The Vampire Diaries , Moonlight ) are the main writers,

• Ghost Projekt : Based on the popular comic series, a female KGB agent and male American weapons inspector form an unlikely partnership when a deadly force is unwittingly unleashed from a Siberian research facility. Brett Matthews (who’s been an assistant to Joss Whedon on Angel , Buffy and Firefly , and has written for Supernatural ) is executive producer and writer.

So, any of ’em take your fancy?
