4. I'm going to think of it as a back handed slap at the dimwits
that voted for this retard. Listen to his lilting
voice, see his range of expression from A to B.
Like that. :)

By the way, we are infested with freepers hiding and
pretending. How's that for stupid?

5. Expect the Sci Fi network to become MUCH worse
as it was part of the deal that went to NBC when they bought Universal and became NBC/Universal.

Oh isn't media conglomeration grand?!

I am a sci-fi fanatic. One of the main reasons I got satellite was to get the sci-fi station. The quality of the programming has always fluctuated. They show to much of the "jason" genre for me but there are some good shows on.
My take on the Arnold trilogy tonight is just to cash in on the publicity as much as possible. Me, I won't be watching.

7. I knew they would eventually.
Alot of creative minds find their way to the sci fi channel. It was just a matter of time for the conservatives to co-opt it.

8. Seriously? That sucks.
I'm not a huge sci-fi person, but I do like some things and its always a good alternative to turn to. I'm getting more and more depressed about ths country.

9. FCC rules
Yesterday they would have been considered candidate air time.

It's horrible beyond belief.

It would have meant Gallagher night on the Sci-Fi channel, followed by Different Strokes night.

Of course, then Flynt and that porn star would have had their own nights.
