I think that get high ratings for the shows and syndication is probably cheaper. They chased me away long ago. I check in avery once in a while, but they are very reliable with their horrible programming (from my perspective) From: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com [mailto:scifino...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Keith Johnson Sent: Monday, September 07, 2009 7:18 PM To: scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Subject: [scifinoir2] Is SyFy Trying to Chase Away Viewers? So we had a long holiday weekend, and, going into it, I prepared myself for another weekend of marathons. You know: Twilight Zone all day Saturday, "Enterprise" or TNG on Monday. Maybe some "Eureka" or BSG thrown in for good measure. But know what we got instead? All day Sunday, the "reality" show "Destination Truth", and all day Labor Day, "Ghost Hunters". WTF??? Look, SyFy has a huge backlog of scifi series, successful and canceled, that they can show. There's "The Dresden Files", "Special Unit 7". there's even that creepy show with Matthew Fox that took place in a weird hospital. What about old eps of "First Wave"? I'd take that over searches for urban legends and local myths. Hell, they can pull out Space: Above and Beyond if they want. I'd watch it over those idiot Ghostbuster wannabes. Fortunately I wasn't home very much, so didn't have to depend on the telly for entertainment. B ut when I was home? I watched marathons of "Ben 10: Alien Force", "Wolverine and the X-Men", and science fact shows "The Universe" and "Planet Earth" instead. Sad that I'm more excited to watch cartoons more than a supposed science fiction channel all weekend. _________________________________________________________________ Get back to school stuff for them and cashback for you. http://www.bing.com/cashback?form=MSHYCB&publ=WLHMTAG&crea=TEXT_MSHYCB_BackToSchool_Cashback_BTSCashback_1x1
