I think the problem with SyFy is NBC, ever since NBC bought SyFy and G4 during the Cable TV boom, both channels have gone down hill and the purchase was done to eliminate some up and coming competition. NBC saw the rise of cable of TV and channels like SyFy and G4 as a threat, so why not buy them when the bidding is low and run them into the ground. Was the Will Wheaton Project the best on TV, no not really, however it was entertaining and innovative and had ratings comparable to Talk Soup, bottom line is that NBC will not let good shows air on syfy andwould rather have disposable reality TV shows, wreatling or bad movies. I remember when shows on SyFy were innovative and they had original shows and movies, with someof their best shows lasting over five years, like Star Gate. Now any show on SyFy is on the five year time clock and will eventually get replaced by reality shows and wrestling, I also remember that they would do innovative movies, sure they were not the best, however they were innovative, now they make completely bad movies. SyFy used to be good, now that it is under NBC, NBC calls all the shots. If you want blame anybody blame NBC because they have ran obth SyFy and G4 into the ground.
