They pay for the show, they can do what they want. You're not missing anything.

No US channel ever airs new episodes of a show on a holiday weekend. They feel that very few people are at home to view it.

whats happening?

It's Labor Day on Monday.

Sci-Fi can't afford to waste a new episode on a weekend when a big chunk of the audience is not going to be at home.

It's a bit silly. Surely these networks should know by now that the larger share of audiences don't watch a show live, but record it instead to watch at a later time.

They know. They just don't see any reason to increase that percentage.

And zap the ads, so those people are irrelevant to the bottom line anyhoo...

It's not that much larger of the audience in the ratings department.

A 33% increase is substantial and in line with some of the most-TiVOed shows, like Lost, The Office and Heroes.

Like the story says, the Live Plus 7 Day figures aren't as important as Live Plus Same Day - you have to assume some people zap ads, plus some ads are time sensitive - but it has some impact.
