I saw the first episode on Sci Fi a week or so ago. It seemed promising, so I set the DVR to record it. It seems they stop airing it though. Any know if that’s permanent or if they’re bringing it back?

[Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Jade) says;

> The show started in 2004 and was aired on the Canadian Space Channel. It premiered on the Space Channel April 16, 2005 and is also currently being shown in Eastern Europe, France, Italy, on SABC 3 in South Africa, on Fox Japan (since November 30, 2006), and on AXN in Hong Kong. The show began airing in The United Kingdom in October 2007, on FX. The Sci Fi Channel in the United States premiered the show on June 6, 2008, but after 2 episodes on Friday prime-time, has moved it to overnight Mon/Tue.

If you’re watching it in the US on the Sci Fi channel, be aware that its timeslot has moved. I’m guessing that there probably won’t be more episodes given that it was first out in 2004.

I just checked and it’s been moved to Mondays at 3 AM. Wow.

Scifi didn’t produce it so I imagine they paid and agreed to show it but had the option of showing it at a ridiculous hour which is the same thing as killing it.

I say “killing it” because the show was already over and done with by 2004 or '05. There’s nothing to cancel.

I’d suggest alternate means of viewing.

3AM? 😕 That’s pretty bizarre, they’ve got something better to show in its place?
