Did you now. Were you experiencing a paucity of middle-age hipness? It seems to me that everything they want to add in order to make themselves "more gooder" is already found elsewhere on the cable menu. I'll hold final opinion until fall but my gut tells me it was good while it lasted.

What makes you say that?
With DATA like this: "Sci Fi is coming off the best year in its history. In primetime it ranked 13th in total viewers among ad-supported cable networks in 2008. It’s a top-10 network in both adults 18 to 49 (up 4%) and adults 25 to 54 (up 6%).
During its fourth-quarter earnings call, parent General Electric said Sci Fi racked up a double-digit increase in operating earnings despite the beginnings of the recession."
This is before the name change. They must be doing something right. Yes they do lay some eggs at times. For a "Sci Fi" channel, they show way too many cheezy horror films, but, maybe that will change.
