Paradox (106)
Status: agreed with Paul 3 November 2026, built in 0.84.0 to 0.84.2.
Identity: cult sci-fi, supernatural mystery and strange television, the channel you switch on at 11pm and look up at 2am. Tagline: "Expect the unexpected", shown under the logo in its ident.
Core: The X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, Doctor Who (2005 onward, including the 2023 series), Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Supporting: Fringe, Stargate SG-1, Sliders, The Twilight Zone, Warehouse 13, Eureka, Angel, Farscape, The Outer Limits (1963 and 1995), Torchwood.
Surprises: Twin Peaks late at night. Later: Quantum Leap and Tales from the Crypt, from Orbit 2.
Time of day:
- 06:00 to 18:00: standalone adventures you can join halfway through.
- 18:00 to 23:00: cult drama in order, in consistent slots: Buffy, Angel, Supernatural, Fringe.
- 23:00 to 06:00: the strange stuff: Twin Peaks, The Outer Limits, Torchwood, Farscape, The X-Files.
Order: daytime standalones mixed, including The X-Files everywhere for now. Prime-time shows in order. Later, the smarter engine should tell standalone episodes from arc episodes, so The X-Files can run mythology episodes in order.
Crossover: preferred home of The Twilight Zone, Sliders, The Outer Limits and Twin Peaks, which may still appear on Orbit 2.
New arrivals: cult and episodic science fiction, supernatural drama, time travel and strange-investigation series.
