What happened to sci-fi? They cancelled Farscape and funneled all of the funds from that into shitty tv shows based off of movies (tremors and stargate) and their lame-ass original movies.


Sabertooth? What the fuck was that?

Anyone see the movie they did a couple of years ago where the world was all women and one man was left? That was cool.

What I miss is the old days with Comedy central episodes of MST3k, cheesy old horror movie sundays with both alligator movies (and maybe critters). Those cool commercials with the eye turning into the scifi logo, or the "real videos" commercials for sci-fi.com with people being attacked by bbugs or videotaping ufos...
Sci-fi is a victim of it's own success. What they did with Farscape is basically what Comedy Central would have done if they cancelled Southpark halfway through it's fourth season because it was expensive, and used the money from that to make a bunch of lame-ass movies and maintain "Ishtar: the series " and Police Academy, PA1.....
