According to a Dev Blog last week, EVE TV was finishing up Season One, and would be on a break until February:
November 24th will see the end of EVE TV Season One. Admittedly, we started a little shaky and took a few episodes to find our feet. But, we can all agree that the core EVE TV team (Xyliana, Loxyrider, StevieSG, Julian, Mike the Greek and Cynthia) did a wonderful job. Each member deserves a huge pat on the back. We would also like to thank all the guests who have made considerable strides to offer their expert opinions, humorous interviews and interesting debates regarding the EVE-verse.
Unfortunately, there were obstacles early on that we hadn't expected to encounter. We struggled to select the right distribution model for the EVE community and clearly missed the mark. Learning from our experiences we transitioned to the Brightcove system, which includes advertising to create a revenue stream, thus allowing the viewer to watch for free. Unfortunately our timing was off and our instincts told us to remain cautiously vigilant. After serious consideration, the choice was made to re-evaluate the project and place EVE TV on a temporary break until February.
However, there has been growing concern on the EVE-O forums about the future of EVE TV, with reports that the venture has been canceled outright. There is even a nifty web presentation and an online petition. I've had the pleasure of meeting the EVE TV crew on several occasions and they were always fun to be around. I wouldn't take the tinfoil off the TV antenna and start making a hat out of it just yet though, I'm sure that this rumor is just static.
