I saw an article somewhere earlier this year stating that when fringe  
ended, it was the last of Science Fiction on TV. Maybe I have to work on  
getting Bue-Haria out there :)

Who knows. There still is the SciFi Channel on cable...

Bu-Haria would make an interesting series indeed. A wealth of plot

Skylark and Lensman books) to Moorcock or LeGuin I believe...
