This is part 2 of a 3 part series about what\u2019s going on in the Sci Fi Network, what\u2019s working, what isn\u2019t and what\u2019s making me flip to the Game Show Network.<\/p>\n

Doctor Who
\nI am so annoyed, so annoyed.
\n***MULTIPLE SPOILER ALERTS***<\/p>\n

I am gonna break this down into good and bad for you.
\nGOOD
\nThe scripts and story arcs are so very well done!
\nThe cinematography is outstanding.
\nThe special effects can be breathtaking.<\/p>\n

BAD
\n2 Doctors in 3 seasons-3 Companions in 3 seasons
\nJust as I was getting to really like Chris Eccleston, BOOM, he\u2019s 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\u2026\u2026..sigh\u2026\u2026.Donna Noble (Catherine Tate)(btw, I already don\u2019t like her, I am mad enough that Rose is gone, so don\u2019t get me started, OK?)
\nTorchwood (the spin-off) is too \u201cadult\u201d for American television viewers
\nThe special effects can also look juvenile and silly.<\/p>\n

Look, I love this show, really, It is appointment TV for me and my family, but pleeeeze\u2026\u2026.. Just a bit of consistency?<\/p>\n

Mind Control with Derren Brown<\/p>\n

OMG! OMG! No Seriously OO MM GG!! This show is just amazing. This is the Americanized version of the hit British show, and,dare I say it again, OMG! This show is amazing fun, I stated watching the British version and got hooked watching him play 11 Chess Grand Masters and winning and then showing us how he did it, or look this show is just so hard to explain so listen, watch it twice give it 2 show and you will be hooked..I promise!<\/p>\n

2 outstanding reasons to watch the Sci Fi Network!
\nEpisode 3 \u2013 The shows in Syndication<\/p>\n

For Now,
\nDome Signing off<\/p>\n
