I was scrolling through the telly channels just now and what did I see being broadcast on the Scifi Channel? "Robin Hood Prince of Thieves". How weird is that?

Maybe Kevin Costner gets abducted by aliens in this particular version? Possibly Friar Tuck is an android, or maybe Maid Marian is in charge of the Death Star. Beats the hell out of me.

Some of the stuff shown on "The Sci Fi" Channel is a Travesty! rubbish!
There was I, when I got it, expecting Old "Lost In Spaces", classics like "Forbidden Planet" and perhaps some more modern stuff, but none of that!
Sky One is more Sci Fi orientated then Sci Fi.

That said I haven't been very impressed with the new Battle Star Galactica...but that's another story...

I've quite liked BG, for an American show it's quite intelligent and there are no irritating brats with daggets this time.

Scifi channel is a letdown, I mean how is Fight Club scifi??

I watched the Feature length pilot of the new Battlestar and really loved it.

I've missed most of the series though, so will catch that on DVD.

I find that now I like to wait until a series comes out on DVD and then watch the lot over a short period - trying to watch each week is too much hassle.

Such a man of the 00's....lol

It seems to be repeated every day except Tuesday & Sunday so you're sure to never miss one.
