Aliens vs Wizards

*ZariusTwo* · 01-23-2012, 01:47 PM

There's a new Children's drama on the way from the BBC which will combine the classic tropes of science-fiction with the fantastical world of sorcery.

"Aliens vs Wizards", created by Russel T Davies (Dark Season, Queer as Folk, Doctor Who, Torchwood, The Sarah Jane Adventures) and Phil Ford (New Captain Scarlet, The Sarah Jane Adventures) features two young teenagers, one a scientist and the other a Wizard, battling the forces of the alien race The Nekross.

The series will consist of twelve 25-minute episodes and is rumoured to follow The Sarah Jane Adventures format of serialized two-part stories

A second season has also reportedly been commisioned

I'll watch it just as long as it's better than Cowboys & Aliens.

I'm looking forward to Sharks vs Vampires, Priests & Gremlins, Knights vs Mutants, Aliens vs Zombies, Aliens & Nazis, Aliens vs Fish, Aliens vs Apes, and Aliens & Abraham Lincoln. Yeah, those should be good.

Angel and Spyke had something with "Cavemen vs Astronoughts"

New CBBC Drama Trailer featuring clips from the show, now called Wizards vs Aliens because the copyright sharks were smelling blood in the water

The other show in the trailer is called "Wolfblood".

Four episodes in and this is pretty enjoyable so far. Really loved the little creatures Tom and Benny fought this week, they wouldnt look out of place in series like Super Sentai really.

The second series of this just wrapped and I'm currently marathoning through it. Some great stories to be had here, with some very dark endings for a kids show...and Benny, the brainy sidekick to the lead wizard hero, is revealed as gay in the finale, that's a bit of a first for a british kids show isnt it?

I believe they showed this on The Hub as well. I remember watching the premiere when we got a free trial of the channel, and I really liked it a lot. Too bad I could never watch the rest of it if it aired the whole way through.

I heard The Hub removed it from their schedule after only two whole stories due to low ratings. Shame too, as this series has been really something this year. Hopefully it comes out on DVD over where you are
