Spike dropping DS9?
- Thread starter thew40
- Start date
Its possible... but Space missed a whole bunch, in the past couple of weeks.
Is Spike preempting it for a marathon of some kind maybe? They seem to be playing all the SW movies...
You're not the only one who noticed...

I was wondering this too. I noticed that they've dropped Voyager and DS9 late nights for Unsolved Mysterys. I hope they bring it back soon, but if they don't it will be a good excuse for me to de-program this horrible channel from my television at last! 
Something tells me it isn't temporary. Voyager is moving to the 3:00 am slot that was formerly held by Seven Days (now on Sci-Fi channel). Most Amazing Videos appears to have taken DS9's time slot. I had recalled reading that Spike was going to unveil a new lineup in the first weeks of January. I guess now we know what it is.
Spike always scares me when it comes to Trek. They move DS9 and Voyager all over the place and don't play them that often. Of course, the Sci-Fi channel does the same thing to TNG and Enterprise. Perhaps they'll get a more regular showing once the new Trek movie airs in May.
Spike's 5 year contract window for DS9 is over this year (2004-2009), Voyagers is over in 2011 (2006-2011). Tng's was up in 2007 (2002-2007) and subseqently Scifi bought the rights to TNG (probably also for 5 years, not sure though) , Scifi also has Enterprise but if its also a 5 year window with them they would lose it in a year or 2. TVland has old TOS, while Remastered TOS still remains in local market syndication.
Was just over at the Spike TV website, and there's no mention of Star Trek in their list of shows. 
Well, I'd really be surprised if it was dropped completely before their contract was up this year.
But with the DVD sets so cheap now, it's hard to imagine why anyone would go through the hassle of watching it on Spike anyway. Funky hours, commercials, always getting pre-empted. Meh.

actually, I'm kinda glad they dropped it. if I had to watch one more big boobied female just 'cos I wanted to watch DS9 I was going to throw right up!
now skiffi needs to live up to its damned name and pick up one of the best science fiction television shows ever made.

Couldn't have said it better myself!
Spike is such a jerkwad of a channel. Here's hoping the Scifi Channel might eventually bring the show new life/new fans. Perhaps even some (*gasp*) female fans who wouldn't tune in to Spike and put up with the boob brigade.

Ahhh sister just look at her face not her breasts
Anyway breasts are breasts and should be the same when we think of other womens breasts. Why say stuff negative with big breasted women and fellow women never say nothing much about women that are AA or A cup.

I got nothing against breasts. I've a couple decent ones myself
however, to paraphrase Jim Kirk: too much of even a good thing is bad.
I'm waiting for skiffy to pick up the slack.
Nothing wrong with breasts as I too have decent ones also
My idea is that breasts should not be an issue with any female character
