They are eliminating SciFi, and changing it to SyFy so they can have video game shows or something? Anyone know what the deal is? Our wonderful B-movie channel is going away July 7th, and will be replaced by this uber-stupid SyFy!

So stupid, but this is even worse. I used to hang around their boards and the locals called SciFi, Skiffy. I've been pissed at them ever since they canceled Farscape, dammit. And this new SyFy name is just freaking stupid. I don't want wrestling, or video games shows or those dumb reality shows (except Ghost Hunters) on what is supposed to be a science fiction channel. Network execs are just dumbasses.
