I'm Old School Science Fiction nerd, and I hate the term 'sci fi'. SF is the real deal, sci fi = lowbrow shite.
Based on my (admittedly limited) experience of Sci Fi channel, they've chosen a perfectly apt title. The only good programming I ever saw out of them was, as Trillsie says, rebranded from some other source.
I have a recurring fantasy that somebody will me control of the channels' resources and carte blanche to do whatever I want with it. Good or bad, it's going to have to be an improvement on MANSQUITO and SCORPION ON A PLANE and vehicles for some guy who had a bit part as a monster on a STAR TREK episode in 1977.
