Lavender,
i totally agree with u. and i am so tired of hearing 'ghost hunters' and
'ghost hunters international' - WE NEVER SEE ANY GHOST. it is a total waste of
an hour of time.
Fate.

I remember the very first
day when the sci-fi network came out. I was so excited. I thought that this
would be a network that would show those old sci fi black and white movies. I
was so disappointed when it showed neither that at all. I think the thing that
makes me wonder about the network is that the shows that are truly sci-fi in
nature are the ones that are not getting any promotions from the network. I can
care less about wrestling. If I really wanted to see something like that I can
go to Spike. The network for men--or so they say. My point being, back in the
90's there were the Action Pack Hour. Shows like Xena and Hercules. Lets not
forget Cleopatra 2525. Don't get me wrong, I love sports and action but if we
are going to do wrestling lets at least try to make it sci-fi in nature.

Agreed. Like I
said, I find myself spending more TV time with Cartoon Network's lineup (Star
Wars, Secret Saturdays, Batman, Ben 10: Alien Force, Camp Laslo),
Nick, NToons, and Boomerang. I do like the "Enterprise" reruns, and the
occasional "Jeremiah" marathons, but other than that, very little appeals to
me.
I knew all was lost when ECW and those wretched "Ghost Hunters"
programs got so much love from the network...

This would be a good time for an OMNI channel. Because now that I see
what Skiffy is planning under their new name, which is more of the
same
stuff that is not sci-fi and every once in a while, Galactica,
I don't see
why we even need it. There's more sci-fi on Showtime
every week than on this
channel. I'll bet that I could get more
original hours of weekly sci-fi
programming based on webisodes alone
than SyFy will have in June.

People may lie, but the
evidence rarely does.
