Stargate SG-1‘s Michael Shanks (“Daniel Jackson”) is headed back to series television in Saving Hope, which has been picked up for a 13-episode first season by Canada’s CTV (story). Now production company Entertainment One Television has released the first trailer for the show.
Until it hits YouTube, visit Entertainment One for a high-quality version of the trailer!
Saving Hope also stars Erica Durance (Smallville) in the story of expert surgeon Charlie Harris (Shanks) who becomes a coma patient in his own hospital following a car accident, only to roam the halls as a disembodied spirit. NBC is reportedly thinking of picking up the show in the U.S.

A little too soapy for my taste but I wish him a great deal of success with it!
Sylvia | January 31 @ 8:20 pmif its not stargate its none of my business
grif | January 31 @ 10:52 pmGood luck mr shanks, I agree with Sylvia it sounds too soapy for me as well.
Jackoneill | February 1 @ 2:23 amGood luck Michael – absolutely thrilled for you!….soapy or not, anyone who can make a tuxedo look that good is worth a watch from me….shallow?….oh yes indeed, but it’s only a TV programme and worth a watch….as is all the stuff that my favourite Stargate Alumni are in…I’ll give everything that they appear in a go at least once!….
Deeds xx
discodiva | February 1 @ 5:18 am“You died, we did everything we could. Sorry about that” – nice to see a bit of Stargate humour there
Jedi_Master_Bra'tac | February 1 @ 8:10 amI giggled a little at that….and he’s the best man to go to with “how to cope with being dead/nearly dead again..and again…and again…. :)
discodiva | February 1 @ 10:57 amSo funny that Michael Shanks is always getting parts that leave him semi-dead. Never alive (in human form), never dead, always stuck someplace in the middle! :P
SamJackShipper93 | February 1 @ 1:39 pmYeah I liked that “Sorry about that” bit too…a little bit of Daniel peeking through. It does look a little soapy to me as well, but with Michael Shanks in it you know I’ve got to give it a try. :)
galadriel77 | February 1 @ 2:50 pmGrey’s Anatomy with a bit of Supernatural and the X Files thrown in. – However, for the actors and production personnel, its work to the pay bills. I hope it succeeds for all involved on that basis.
Thunderbird 2 | February 1 @ 4:35 pmNice to see Michael getting a starring role in a network show. I was so disappointed after he auditioned for Danno in Hawaii 5-0 and Scott Caan ended up getting the role.
Joe Friday | February 2 @ 3:03 amNot for me!
daffymjb | February 2 @ 6:29 pmI agree, too SOAPY! Zzzz!
Looks cool! Grif, always a pleasure to read your comments.
Blur1528 | February 3 @ 10:27 pmI’d actually be surprised if Saving Hope garned that many extra fans from the Sci Fi genre anyway..I’d assume that your average GW fan probably wouldn’t fancy a “soapy” hospital drama, although a few just might give it a go to support an actor who worked on a series for a long time….One hopes that he and his fellow actors will gain fans from other areas/genres as, or if, it takes off…and soaps aren’t all bad…after all, didn’t a certain Richard Dean Anderson appear in a little drama called “General Hospital” for a while or so?…;)..didn’t do him any harm did it?…
discodiva | February 4 @ 5:28 pmI’ll agree it does look too soapy… but I’ll give it the standard 3 show shot. If I’m not into it by 4 I’ll just wish him well. :-)
/\rra|<is | February 4 @ 6:41 pmI hope NBC picks this up. My mom has never seen Michael Shanks before, and I think she would like him as an actor. I want to see him in something not Stargate, though I do love my Stargate (I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t!).
DancerChick1982 | February 4 @ 7:34 pmYeah, Michael Shanks of Stargate Atlantis Fame. Really??? in its own promo they don’t even get his past credit right.
dzd | February 4 @ 11:33 pmI am gonna LOVE this show soooo much!!! I really hope NBC gets it too but if not, maybe watch it online. Not too soapy for me :) I watch everything that Michael is in!

Seriale tv – TvBlog » Saving Hope – Un nou serial de la CTV | February 11 @ 5:53 pmPeople say it seems to soapy. Can’t be any more soapy than Startgate Universe.
jimv1983 | February 19 @ 9:05 pmLooks like it’s getting picked up in US for a summer series. Great to be seeing Michael. Hope there will be some room for his excellent comedic chops!
