Sci Fi Channel Launches Website For The Triangle
The Sci Fi Channel has launched the official website for its upcoming mini-series The Triangle. Sci Fi ’s new mini-series will premier on Monday December 5th. The Triangle is a 6 hour miniseries starring Eric Stoltz, Catherine Bell, Michael Rodgers, Bruce Davision, Lou Diamond Phillips and Sam Neill.
The series is executive produced by Bryan Singer, Dean Devlin and Rockne S. O’Bannon and the screenplay for The Triangle was written by O’Bannon based on a story by Singer and Devlin. The story of The Triangle is about a group of professionals investigating the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle:
Billionaire Eric Benirall (Neill) is losing his cargo ships, and their crews, at a frightening pace-and now, he wants answers. His bemused, handpicked team of subject-specific experts include lead skeptic and tabloid journalist Howard Thomas (Stoltz), ocean resource engineer Emily Patterson (Bell), scientist/adventurer Bruce Gellar (Rodgers) and psychic Stan Latham (Davison). Pulled together with the promise of unlimited funding for their research and the chance for once-in-a-lifetime riches, the team sets out to solve this most daunting of anomalies.
When a jetliner disappears over the Triangle, bizarre, unexplainable occurrences begin to affect each member of Benirall’s team. When the government takes an alarming interest in their work, our crew is drawn into something far more dangerous than they had believed possible. A research expedition with the promise of riches soon becomes a frantic, head-turning ride through the unstoppable force that is The Triangle.
These mini-series are usually the crown jewel of the Sci-Fi Channel’s programming. While they haven’t all been a great success (Earthsea springs to mind), many of them have been. Dune, Battlestar Galactica and Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars are three particularly successful mini-series. Given the talent involved in this latest mini-series, I’m really looking forward to it.

So far, pretty good. The cast is (suprisingly) quite a list of good actors. As of now, it
seems to touch on the questions we all have. I hope it doesn’t draw to an end that is
to “humor” the “I don’t want to know-give me a comfortable ending” people. We will see…

I enjoyed watching this series immensely! I thought Eric Stoltz acting job was terrific and really held it all together. Seeing a beautiful, brainy woman in the mix of these unlikely adventurers kept me interested where it may have gotten a little dull here and there.. The special effects were sensational. A psychic too, gave it a surprising eclectic twist. As with any story attempting to create sense and continuity out of the possibilities and results of inter-dimensional and/or time travel. . .it’s always head spinning. Marvel Comics will probably want to speak to you!
