joebelknapwallDear "SyFy," or whatever other silly thing you're calling yourself these days,
You suck. Seriously, you suck with a capital uck. God forbid you let Caprica have a little breathing room to find its feet. God forbid you let a story unfold and grow. I guess you need all that bandwidth to regale us with more Ghost Hunters, to keep dumb people on the edge of their seat, or more spectrum space for cheesy made-for-TV disaster movies with CGI effects straight out of a high school computer class. Ah, and don't forget about wrestling and "ultimate" fighting. We need lots more of that. You know, because you're not just about "sci" (ence) "fi" (ction) anymore—you're a brash modern network on the go, ready to give us cutting edge programming like...umm, like another grim outing in the tired Stargate franchise, or maybe another rerun of Ghost Ship. At least you're not broadcasting endless repeats of the worn-out Star Trek franchisees or making loathsome versions of beloved multicultural books where you make everyone white. I mean, that would be terrible! Heck, y'all should hire Marina Sirtis to do a Southern accent and make a movie about blowing up France and then the world. That would be awesome, right?
It's okay, though. The last five hours of Caprica, which you inexplicably pulled, and then belched out in a wad tonight, were riveting. I was actually riveted, which is unusual for me. Ends with a bang and a great big teaser to something we'll never see, but hey, at least I can watch some more crappy Japanamation afterward (and yeah, I know you're supposed to say "anime" or some such noble-sounding thing, but it's all just endless rehashed Marine Boy to me. So sorry.). Couldn't be bothered to wrap it up, or give us an inch. Thanks, SyFy. You truly suck.
Let's see, let me just edit the channel listing on my TiVo and...bye bye SyFy. Say "hi" to TLC in TiVoblivion while I'm ignoring you.
Sheeesh.
