If you are seeking a thrill, excitement, adventure and are tired of boring summer reruns, then BBC America is the channel to stay tuned to this week.

British thespian Kenneth Branagh has been honored at the U.K.'s Broadcasting Press Guild Awards (BPG) - beating Doctor Who star David Tennant to take the coveted Best Actor prize.

Pop star Lily Allen has been linked to a starring role in iconic British sci-fi series Doctor Who.

LONDON (AP) - Britain's best-known time traveler is ending his journey. The BBC has announced that Scottish actor David Tennant will leave long-running science fiction series "Doctor Who" in just over a year.

It will be one "dark knight" this October as Spike TV presents the third annual "SCREAM," a celebration of the best in horror, sci-fi, fantasy and comic genres.

What makes a TV show great? Is it the number of viewers or awards it has received? Not necessarily. In its last season, less than 3 million people tuned in to an episode of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," but it is unarguably one of the best sci-fi/fantasy shows of all time.

NEW YORK - February 4, 2008 - SCI FI Channel has acquired the fourth season of "Doctor Who" and the phenomenally popular series' new spin-off "The Sarah Jane Adventures" from BBC Worldwide America. Both series are slated to premier on SCI FI in April 2008.

"Extras: The Extra Special Series" closes out the hilarious series with Andy Millman the 40-something-year-old actor who is finally able to claim the fame and money he has worked so hard for.

British actress Billie Piper will be reunited with David Tennant when she reprises her role in cult TV show Doctor Who. The 25-year-old quit the hit BBC show in 2006 after two years of playing the Doctor's assistant Rose Tyler, but is set to return to series next March.

While most of us might enjoy watching a good primetime drama show like "Law & Order," "CSI" or "Grey's Anatomy" we cannot forget that there are also some amazing sci-fi shows currently playing on television.
