various websites recently?

Hi Thor, yes we are in full swing on a third and sensational season of
Tripping. It will release internationally starting in September 07 with
video sales in the US before xmas 07. Also look for trippingtherift.tv
at the beginning of February.

best regards,

Michel Lemire, Executive VP Creative Affairs & Production[/quote]

I do know the canadian SPACE channel & the US Sci-Fi channel do not always see eye to eye with each other. The reply from Cinegroupe also leads me to wonder if they expect the US release of TTR season 3 to be a straight to DVD ONLY release. (No US tv airings?) Us diehard fans may need to obtain our great TTR season 3 via that dvd method if Sci-Fi plays hard ball and does not pick up the US rights to TTR from Teletoon & Space.
