Wouldn't that be nice? I had a mini Hammer Horror movie marathon with my folks last night, and was thinking if there was a channel that showed this stuff all the time I'd never turn it off.

Well, there is a "Horror Channel".....but I don't think it's available anywhere except on the Internet.  It's based in New Jersey and I'm in New York and I've never seen it listed anywhere on cable TV.

From what i have seen recently regarding wrestling...it definitely belongs on Sci-FI

Would love to see tag team of original Burke Devlin (Mitch Ryan) and 2nd Matthew Morgan (Thayer David) team up against Joe Haskell and Bob the Bartender at the Whale....cage match

Only Laura knows the truth regarding Davids paternity, and i am sure she remembers the back seat of that car Roger crashed.

I was disappointed when the Horror Channel never became a reality. What happened with that, anyway? I thought it was supposed to be a regular channel .

After spotting Law & Order: SVU on their evening schedule recently, nothing they add to their lineup surprises me.  Even with the NBC thing it was still too bizarre, and it's not like you can't get your L&O fix on another network most evenings anyway.  Unless this was a SciFi version:  "In outer space, sexually-based offenses are considered especially heinous..."

Haha Midnite but i'd love to see Elliot turn vamp i'd stand in line for that bite ;D

Ugh...why am I not surprised?  Ever since Sci-Fi cancelled *both* Mystery Science Theater *and* Dark Shadows, I have nothing to do with it.  It's such a crappy channel now.

At least they show the new Dr Who, right?

There are only a handful of great SF series that have ever been made.   unless you have all of them, or almost all, you don't have much of a "Sci-Fi Channel".     Trek, Dr Who (the original), early Space:1999, Blake's 7, Babylon Five.... who needs shallow Hollywood action movies dressed up as science-fiction with expensive effects?   You can't build a whole SF channel on that anyway.   I get the impression that's what the Sci-Fi Channel is.    Americans usually overlook the British stuff.

What do you think of RED DWARF? I've heard it's good -

The New Doctor Who is really good. Now I just wish they'd make a really good new Dark Shadows! It would also be nice if they aired the original Dark Shadows.

retzev--  I love Red Dwarf.   It changes wildly from season to season though, so if you see one and don't like it, that doesn't mean you won't like the rest or a lot of it anyway.   Seasons one and two are fundamentally different from 3-8.   Eight I don't like much but the rest are incredible.
