Perhaps if "SyFy" were to actually broadcast only SciFi instead of the non-related dreck they do, they'd find themselves with a more dedicated and supportive audience!

Also, basing decisions on the "Nielson Ratings" is sheer folly! I mean, just how representative can statistically insignificant samples* be anyway, considering that many of those "households" may not even have access to a specific channel to begin with!

In the earlier days of television, networks would show a series every week in sequence. Now days, they seem to scattershot each episode willy-nilly, which makes it extremely difficult for the audience to remain "captive" and "engaged," to say nothing about achieving a sense of continuity!

I absolutely love some of the series on these days (such as "The Closer") but am constantly frustrated by the scheduling changes! I mean come on! What's up with showing six episodes, then suddenly re-showing the same episodes over the next six weeks...

...then not showing the next few episodes until months later!!!!!:isadizzy:
