The Magicians In The Media


Recommended Posts

Right?? It's a very unusual feeling for those of us who like science-fiction/fantasy shows.   Not just renewal, super early renewal.  Way to go, Show.  

 

Marked difference from what they did with The Dresden Files years ago where, I kid you not, they never even told the cast it was canceled.   Just aired the 13 episode series, didn't put out a press release about cancelation and whereas everyone involved did figure it out, they just let the cast contracts quietly expire without ever having officially told any of them "Yeah, that show was canceled" and only then did the officially announce "Oh yeah, we aren't renewing that."  

 

Admittedly, it was not a good adaptation of The Dresden Files books, but still good for The Magicians and good for Syfy for apparently developed more professional standards since back then.

A really interesting interview with Hale Appleman (Eliot). I was fascinated to read that he and Arjun Gupta (Penny) originally tried out for each other's roles. WARNING: There's a pretty major book spoiler in one of Hale's answers.

Syfy promo (it's just about S1 being available on demand and online, but I feel like the fact that they're putting any effort into promoting the show during the off season is a positive sign):

 

Per IGN, S1 is uncensored (meaning no bleeped out curse words) on Syfy:
