NBC's THE EVENT could continue as a SyFy miniseries
Fans of NBC's The Event may have something to look forward to. According to Deadline, the canceled show may find a second life on SyFy. Immediately after the show was cancelled, creator Nick Wauters and executive producer Steve Stark revealed that there was a chance that the sci-fi drama could continue elsewhere. Talks are currently going on for Syfy to pick up the show as a miniseries.
It certainly helps that Universal Media Studios produced The Event, because NBC Universal owns them and SyFy. The numbers are being crunched to make sure it is financially feasible for The Event to continue on Syfy. If the series migrates and ends up doing well as a miniseries, it is possible that another season could eventually be launched. SyFy has been very active lately, they are also considering taking on the Fox pilot Locke & Key.
I really enjoyed the first half of the season, but the second half was lacking in my opinion. It will be interesting to see what happens. I also hope that Locke and Key gets picked up. What are your thoughts on this possibility?
SyFy recently tweeted that they are not going to be picking up the show.
Here is their tweet:
To answer some questions I've been getting, at this time we have no plans to pick up The Event.
Thanks to @AARONskewediris for the heads up!
