January 9th was the end of five seasons of devoted Friday night viewing of Stargate Atlantis. Of course, we have been given the dangling carrot of a movie to keep us ‘loyal’. The movie won’t be out until (most likely) 2010 and we’ve yet to hear of ANY of the main cast being signed on, but in all fairness the negotiations could be under tight wraps.
The question is: Now that my favorite show has been kicked to the curb for some new and insipid sounding series why would I continue to watch SciFi? ECW Wrestling?
I don’t think so. I wouldn’t watch wrestling on a sports channel much less of a SCIFI channel! SCIence Fiction people! Give me SciFi and Fantasy on my SciFi channel not sports. Of course, I suppose wrestling could be termed “fantasy” in a broad sense of the word.
So, it looks as though my Friday nights have now been freed up and my cable bill will be reduced since I no longer need the SciFi channel.
