    For several days SyFy channels has been running a trailer for their new movie premiering tonight. Sharknado seems to be about a whole bunch of sharks that have been swept up in a number of tornadoes that end up terrorizing Los Angeles. Who watches these things? :confused: http://entertainment.time.com/2013/07/10/the-64-best-seconds-of-the-sharknado-trailer-ranked[^] Anyway, to really get you ready for the new movie, they are airing all their bad shark movies. Right now it is Sharktopus (I believe Pete "enjoyed" this a while back), before that they were showing Malibu Shark Attack (a Tsunami releases pre-historic sharks :^) ). Yet to come today: Swamp Shark, Super Shark, Sharknado and 2-headed Shark Attack. Why? :confused: :confused: :confused: Soren Madsen

    If you ever watch SyFy on the weekends, the movies absolutely suck during the day, and then keep repeating them. I think SyFy now specializes in showing the movies nobody really wants to watch so they are really cheap. The movies keep repeating, so anything new in their lineup of really bad SciFi/Monster movies is an improvement. At least the old black and white SciFi movies were somewhat more amusing.

      Not just WWE, but how about pawn stars, American chopper, and any of the hundreds (I swear, it seems that many since I hate them, helped ruin the History Channel) of other reality shows.

      Yeah, there are a lot of those shows. I watch American Pickers and one of those storage locker shows - the one with a big guy and a smaller guy working together. Soren Madsen

        I do not think Defiance is that bad. It is not great but so far been entertaining. Somewhat similar in premise. (Revolution[^]) (Defiance[^])

        Ahhh, that is the 'Revolution' show - I have seen the trailers. I have not watched any of the episodes of either of those shows, so I can't really comment. Soren Madsen

                Nope. He mentioned SyFy so I ran with it. I pretty much will not watch any movie on that channel. I watched a movie recently, I know that it was on the Chiller channel and I have seen this movie on Showtime as well. Pretty much hit the trifecta. Bad acting, terrible script and if Alan Smithee did not direct it, he should have. Pretty big names in it too. Ben Kingsley being one of them. The only reason I suffered through as much as I did was that I saw that I had a cousin in it and I watched it until they killed his character, then I changed the channel. Like the classic song goes, "Got 13 channels of s*** on the tv to choose from" and I believe that they do their best to fill all of the channels they can with the most absolute crap that they have available.

                  I suppose. :sigh: Still, I am pretty sure it beats watching "Sharknado". :-\ Soren Madsen

                    This classic[^] was shown by them a couple of months ago - starring those acting giants Tiffany, Debbie Gibson and Micky Dolenz! What a movie!

                      Could be a close race. Have not seen the movie, so don't know how bad it is. Probably pretty bad. Gave up on watching the SyFy channel a while ago because of these crappy movies that just keep repeating (and the damned ghost hunters, and damned WWF), and gave up on the History channel because of their reality shows, and stupid aliens from space. Reality shows have pretty much ruined TV for me.

                        I had 100's of channels and nothing to watch. As I said in another post, reality shows have ruined TV for me, but probably just as well. Now do not have any sort of tv broadcast. Download stuff, rip stuff, and watch Hulu.

                            As far as I know the World Wildlife Fund has little to do with TV. Obviously I am a bit out of date with the professional wresting (http://sports.yahoo.com/news/1990s-pro-wrestling-debate-ecw-wcw-wwf-182100915.html[^]).

                                I am not going to watch the trailer again, but I seem to recall that they are inside the tornadoes and get blown out of there, flying towards people with their mouths wide open. It is completely ridiculous. Soren Madsen
