I was reading Orson Scott Card's latest review and it got me thinking.

I know that's a dangerous thing for me to do.

I remember seeing Orson Scott Card on that Sci Fi
Buzz on the sci fi channel and you know whatever happened to that show?

I dont get cable so I was wondering if anyone still watches the sci fi channel and if you do
is that show still on??

I haven't, but I don't doubt that it would've been very interesting. I think it's really great to listen to authors' opinions of their books - it's kind of fun to see the differences in what they were thinking when writing and what you were thinking when reading.

Here's a link to SciFi

IMO, SciFi has lost its way ever since they cancelled Farscape after they had promised a fifth season and then reneged on their promise just as the producers of Farscape were putting the final touches on Season 4. Then they brought in some really terrible programming (if I can even bring myself around to calling it that) that tried to cash in on the "reality show" craze. [Mad]

So, is it possible for an entire channel to jump the shark?
