Iâve waited YEARS for someone to finally bring this to the big or little) screen, and from everything Iâve seen so far, it looks to be one hell of an awesome miniseries. Fantastic cast, too. If youâve never read the (quite short) novel itâs based in, by Arthur C. Clarke, do so immediately. It premiers on the SyFy channel this December.
You wonât be disappointed.
That said, you also may never be able to look at your kids again without a little bit of involuntary existential trepidation. wink
Check out the teaser for Childhoodâs End, starring Charles Dance of Game of Thrones.

Written by Arthur C. Clarke and hailed as a revolutionary work of science fiction since its publishing in 1953, Childhoodâs End follows the peaceful alien invasion of Earth by the mysterious âOverlords,â whose arrival begins decades of apparent utopia under indirect alien rule, at the cost of human identity and culture.

CHILDHOODâS END Trailer | The Golden Age â Coming In December 2015 | Syfy.
âChildhoodâs Endâ by Arthur C. Clarke is one of my favorite books, and a masterpiece of science fiction. But truth be told, I have a bad feeling about this SyFy adaptation based on this trailer. Iâll watch it, but it looks like the producers took a few too many liberties with the story. The scene in which millions of people are suddenly possessed to say, âThereâs no need to be afraid,â is not in the book. The very cerebral tone of Clarkeâs story seems much creepier here. I guess Iâll have to reserve judgment until December, but I suspect poor Clarke may end up spinning in his grave.
