This looks good, and is something SYFY should have done a long time ago. Jonah Ray will be a guest, also.

You know... I really don't want to support Syfy, but this looks like fun. It reminds me of the programming that *the Sci-Fi Channel* used to have before the first reworking around the turn of the millennium. As much as I'd love for the channel to go back to its original format I know it's just not in the cards, so a little reminder of days gone by, like this, could be a good thing.

I concur! I am SO glad the people at Comcast finally decided to course correct and steer SYFY back towards genre fare and its culture, after the prior execs tried to permeate “channel drift”. I just wish the current folks had been in charge before the silly channel name change, but oh well. There are a myriad of other science fiction-related names they could have given the channel, when they rebranded the name for copyright/trademark reasons.
