NBC's New Day One Sci-Fi TV Show By Rick Brady At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Day One is the latest TV show to be produced by NBC and "Universal Media Studios" who also produced "The Office", all versions of "Law and Order", and Heroes, among many others. Jesse Alexander (of "LOST", "Heroes", "Alias") will be the executive producer and Alex Graves (of "Journeyman" and "Fringe") will direct the 13 episodes that NBC plans to broadcast in 2010 as a replacement series for "Heroes". It's pure speculation at this time as to whether or not NBC will produce more episodes or seasons of Day One. For now, they simply are saying that they envision it as a 13 episode series. Sci-fi fans can only hope that Day One will do so well in the ratings that it will continue!

The plot for Day One involves the occupants of an apartment building in California who band together for survival after a massive meteor storm destroys the entire technological infrastructure on Earth! No more grocery stores full of food or gasoline to power your car or electricity for heat/air-conditioning/lights/etc. Yes, it's back to the stone age unless these survivors can find some way to preserve some remnant of modern human life!

Audiences should find the watching of Day One interesting as there have been hints that the cause of the meteor shower might not be a simple act of nature. It's true cause may be "cloaked" in mystery just as the origin and purpose of the island is shrouded in mystery on the series, "Lost" and who knows how many other twists and turns the writers may throw at us? Fans of the short-lived series, "Jericho" should enjoy another TV try at depicting what life might be like for a small group of human survivors after a severe calamity!

The Day One TV show will feature a cast full of talented actors and actresses! Some of those who might be better known are Catherine Dent who played "Officer Danni Sofer" on "The Shield" will play "Jennifer" on "Day One", Sunkrish Bala who played "Eric" on "Notes from the Underbelly" will play "Jamil" on "Day One", Xander Berkeley who played "George Mason" on season 2 of the "24 TV Show" will play "Clarke" on "Day One", Leila Birch who played "Teresa" on "EastEnders" will play "BBC Reporter" on "Day One", Adam Campbell who played "Cal Vandeusen" on last season's "Harper's Island" will play "Zach" on "Day One", and Carly Pope who played "Samantha 'Sam' McPherson" on "Popular" will play "Bonnie" on "Day One".

NBC announced the production of the Day One TV show on May 4, 2009. At that time, NBC also said that they would be featuring another three brand new drama series during the 2009/2010 TV season titled "Parenthood", "Trauma", and "Mercy". NBC also stated that two new comedy series called "Community" and "100 Questions" would be added to their schedule and they would also broadcast 6 brand new live episodes of "Saturday Night Live Weekend Update Thursday" in primetime!

In any case, sci-fi fans can't help but be happy for at least a few episodes of yet another show in what appears to be an ever-expanding menu of fantasy and science fiction on television!
