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.

If you like wrestling and shows about the paranormal, more power to you. However, Sci-Fi stopped putting money into high-quality new programming and have relied on reality-based & low production cost shows instead. McDonalds is very successful and is having a record year but that doesn't mean the food is that great. As I said, I'll wait until fall and see if the new iteration is "better"; I am right in their demo too.
