The network in August gave a straight-to-series order to Jerry Bruckheimer-produced Harvest as its first drama series in a decade. Spike TV has had a rou gh re-entry in the scripted series arena. We are pausing to ensure we get the script right and to deliver fans what they want - a fantastic show that fully captures the spirit of these wonderful books.” “The Red Mars trilogy is one of the most beloved, modern science fiction properties, in part because of its tremendous scope and ambition. “We will continue to develop Red Mars with Skydance,” a spokesman for Spike TV said in a statement to Deadline.
