# Innerspace (TV series)

Innerspace, styled as InnerSpace, is a Canadian talk show devoted to news in science fiction, which served as the flagship program of Canadian TV channel Space. The show covered film, television, video games, technology, comic books, gadgets, and other news related to the sci-fi genre. Its hosts were Ajay Fry, Morgan Hoffman, and Teddy Wilson. The show was cancelled on May 24, 2018, due to financial strain.

## History

InnerSpace began as HypaSpace in 2002. In 2008, it became The Circuit and brought Ajay Fry on to host. In 2007, with the show re-titled InnerSpace, Teddy Wilson joined as co-host. Two years later, Cynthia Loyst joined the team, before leaving to join The Social. Morgan Hoffman joined the show shortly after that.
Prior to 2009, Space aired a daily news segment called SpaceNews. Videographer Natasha Eloi looked at "what's new" in space and the sciences. SpaceNews Monthly was a best-of show based on these interstitials. Both programs finished their runs at the end of September and October 2005, respectively. Natasha Eloi joined InnerSpace as host and field reporter covering various events happening in the world of sci-fi entertainment. Natasha also hosted and produced a series of segments seen on InnerSpace focused on toy collectibles and high-end prop replicas. "It Came From The Basement With Natasha Eloi" showcased toy collections from fans and celebrities which aired from 2005 to 2010.
