This mini-series was the best made for SCIFI channel movie/miniseries. This didnt require hardly any CGI or a big budget. Why doesnt NBC either sell SyFy or make more shows like this. It is hard to believe that NBC cancels anything good that it has and turns to reality programming and wrestling.
shareextreemely good point, they could have made another great original series continuation, but instead we get sharknado and all other syfy originals...sigh
shareDifferent producers with different wallets and different ideas on how to spend the money inside. For what it's worth 'Sharknado' got better ratings than 'The Lost Room', so blame the viewers, not the channel.
shareIf Sharknado got better ratings than The Lost Room then that shows that SYFY is aiming to a different audience. When they started airing wrestling, reality shows, and changed their name to not be a actual Science Fiction channel, it has caused me to lose all hope.
I liked the new BSG and Caprica. Caprica had some problems that could have been fixed with some small writing changes but if they only care about ratings then they might as well put on episodes of Friends and the Two and a half Men or whatever else is available in syndication.
It would be nice to have the channel actually dedicated to SCIFI.
I mean, technically, a Sharknado is science fiction...

Why don't you shut your stinking whole, you fruitcake! I've been watching reality shows since they first appeared, and my hole family loves them aswell. And about wrestlin, you better KEEP YOUR DAMN MOUTH SHUT, OR I'LL SHUT IT FOR YOU!
I don't wanna ever here you speak that way about wrestlin again, you nancy boy!
Wrestlin is the most perfect, wholesome, wonderful form of entertainment which Jesus has ever created, and I won't sit hear and listen to some fool speak badly of it. Wrestlin has been around for well over a hundred thousand years, and even in the catacombs of Egypt they have found ancient magazines with drawings of naked men wrestlin. It's older than anything else, and exists for a reason, you cross-dressing accountant who eats quiche!
My wife, sister, aunt, uncle, ex-wife, brothers, parents, 12 children, and everyone else who lives in our trailer ALL LOVE WRESTLIN! As does everyone in our town, in the glorious state of Alabama, including most all members of our church...Christs Divine Suffering of Holy Redemption Ministries Chapel, ltd.
Answer that and stay fashionable, Mr. Smarty Trousers!
They are like our hero's from the Bible, battling the forces of evil. So big, strong, handsome, and righteous!
So watch your filthy mouths, you pretentious pigs, with your artsy-fartsy programs filled with men who lay with other men, transbenders, and women in positions of power. That's not what Lord Jesus approves of!
I HAS SPOKEN!

Well, Caprica...
The other thing being a one-shot miniseries allows for better storytelling than a drawn out series, aka Lost.
