It has not been cancelled. It is getting average figures. They actually
changed it a bit from the pilot - got rid of the female cop with dark hair
and brought in the blonde from "Tilt".

It is a fairly average serial killer show. All a bit silly but quite
entertaining if you like that sort of thing.

Yup. To be fair Sky did not know that. The figure were not that bad. Will
run for 13 eps (even though only 9 show in the US).

ITV have Surface for showing on either ITV2 or ITV4.

Earl has gone to C4. Suspected to go into the 9pm fiends/will & grace slot.

HIMYM has gone to Paramount Channel and BBC for second showing rights.

Five have Prison Break, were planning to show it in January but as they are
messing around with the second half of the season in the states it might be
delayed.
Fox ordered a full season but are using the slot for 24. Possible it could
be summer until the remaining episodes are shown which would be a bit dumb
(and would mean Five showing the second half of the season almost 1 year
after the first half).
