Except for '50s Twilight Zone marathons.
Same here. Or, maybe, 60s Star Trek if they even show that anymore.

That's a lot cheaper than it used to be. Very tempting, I must say...

I think they decided not to change their name since everytime I have been flipping channels it still says SciFi. Probably because of the huge response they got from the idea of changing the name to syfy.

It's like Star Trek playing on SpikeTV all the time. I'm sorry, but if you're the "manly man" audience this channel caters to, Star Trek is on the bottom of favourable shows to watch.

Not saying their line-up is all that great anyways...

To be honest, those Star Trek reruns were about the only thing I ever watched on Spike :lol:
