Good, I'm glad BBCA is getting the advantage over SciFi. Skiffy treats the franchise with such careless abandon, gut-editing, and reckless timing that I could care less if that channel ever airs another episode of the series again. Let BBCA take it completely and use it and the more-popular-in-America Torchwood as a foundation towards growing the channel...
Don't know how many times this has to be said, but here we go again...
Yeah, blah-blah-blah, I've heard this little rant before. And I mean you no offense by saying that, but whether SciFi is more readily available to the US viewers than BBCA (which I won't debate with you, but I feel certain may not be quite as clear-cut as you seem to believe it be) it doesn't change the fact that BBCA is far superior in advertisements, timeslots, presentation of generally the entire material rather than a chopped down, assembly-line format from an NBC station, and takes the time to actually create a bookend commercial cap that edits usually quite seamlessly into the show.
I'm sorry you don't get BBCA. If it makes you feel any better, I don't either. But, the fact remains that SciFi treats it like some secondhand afterthought to buffer a slot between
Stargate: Canceled and fucking wrestling. They have never cared about the show, nor have they ever tried to create a fanbase for it. So, while there may be a chance that five extra people that don't already know of the show's existence who watch television on Friday nights
might stumble on it on SciFi (and stay the four minutes of show before the next commercial), I'd still prefer the lesser four people seeing it advertised on BBCA so much it peaks their interest, and make it a point to check the show out. If so, they'll encounter a show that's presented as primetime, grade-A material.....a flagship series, versus an eccentric curiosity.
Not to mention, it leads perfectly into Torchwood...
Just my opinion, mind you.
