So, What is the Sci Fi Network Doin’ Right, anyway? – Part 3 “The Syndications”

This is part 3 of a 3 part series about what’s going on in the Sci Fi Network, what’s working, what isn’t and what’s making me flip to The Golf Channel.

First, a sidebar. SFN has become a home for many canceled sci fi network shows. Some are good, some are bad and some are just cringingly ugly.

The Noobs:
The 4400
Currently First Run episodes of Season 4 of this amazing series are running on USA Network. When they end they usually get a repeat run on SFN a few months later. What an awesome idea this was!!!. This is a real sleeper favorite of mine. MY hope is for a SFN Marathon, running all 4 seasons sometime soon.

So, What is the Sci Fi Network Doin’ Right, anyway? – Part 2 “The Imports”

This is part 2 of a 3 part series about what’s going on in the Sci Fi Network, what’s working, what isn’t and what’s making me flip to the Game Show Network.

Doctor Who
I am so annoyed, so annoyed.
***MULTIPLE SPOILER ALERTS***

I am gonna break this down into good and bad for you.
GOOD
The scripts and story arcs are so very well done!
The cinematography is outstanding.
The special effects can be breathtaking.

BAD
2 Doctors in 3 seasons-3 Companions in 3 seasons
Just as I was getting to really like Chris Eccleston, BOOM, he’s gone and replaced with a completely different Doctor as portrayed by David Tennant. Then, just as I was adjusting to the differing relationship between Doctors 9 and 10 with Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) BOOM AGAIN, she is killed and is replaced by Martha Jones ( Freema Agyeman) who I am just getting to like a lot (and you will love in the season endgame spanning 3 episodes) and then, BOOM, she is about to be replaced by……..sigh…….Donna Noble (Catherine Tate)(btw, I already don’t like her, I am mad enough that Rose is gone, so don’t get me started, OK?)
