The first trailer for the new SyFy show Helix is here and it leaves something to be desired. Now I am going to fully give this show a chance when it comes out, but if we are going by first impressions alone on this teaser then it looks like the black oil from The X-Files is infecting researchers at an Arctic base….and I know I am not the only one that thought the opening words were from a Fringe episode right?

But if it is like any Ronald D. Moore show on SyFy then I will get heavily attached to it only to have them cancel it for budget reasons and have to end early on a quickly put together finale that tries to tie up years of mythos in two hours.

Frak.

    Definitely the same 3D text effect from Fringe, only black instead of light gray/white. I’ll definitely check it out on hulu/netflix, as I’m always in need of a well done epic sci-fi conspiracy series. Maybe Moulder and Olivia will take on a zombie army infected with an alien virus from an alternate universe, only to have a Walter Bishop enhanced Milla Jovavich save the day. I’ll pop the popcorn.
