This is less than 20 episodes from the end of the series." SG Online Updates #104 (Oct. 22) and #105 (Nov. 11) announced news about Sci Fi's cancellation, directly from DCP. DCP and SG reiterate: Sci Fi's broadcast contract for DS is expiring and the network will not renew. It is pursuing new and different programming across its schedule, not just in DS' timeslot. "Discussions are underway to hopefully find a new TV home for DS reruns. SG will keep fans updated in each postal-mail published SG issue and on this SG DS Updates List. "When DS ends on Sci Fi, viewers who are left hanging can purchase those episodes on VHS from MPI Home Video (www.mpihomevideo.com or 1-800-777-2223 weekdays)." Detailed descriptive summaries of those and other episodes are found in Kathleen Resch's illustrated book "The DS 1840/1841 Parallel Time Concordance." It is available directly from her for $25 (includes padded envelope and Media Mail postage). Kathleen Resch, P.O. Box 1766, Temple City, CA 91780-7766.
