Thanks for visiting SciFi Stream. You may have noticed a new look to the site this week, and there are a few other changes to go with it.
But first, a little background. For the last few years this site has served two purposes: 1) to provide quick-reference episode guides to all my favorite science fiction and fantasy series, and 2) to aggregate top news headlines from some of my favorite genre news sites, including Airlock Alpha, Blastr (formerly SCI FI Wire), TrekMovie, and the Stargate site that I also run, GateWorld. From time to time we’d also publish some original news items and interviews, but for the most part the headlines that came streaming onto the home page were links to other sites.

You’ll also find them sorted by your favorite show, below the scroll on that show’s home page. And you can subscribe to RSS feeds for those headlines, or just for the headlines from your favorite shows. That’s the cool thing about aggregating news: we do the sorting for you, so
