Sad customer
- - Shift from many shows to mostly movies is disappointing.
- - The Ark is great, but it may end after three seasons, and reruns would be welcome.
As a customer since the channel started, it's a bit disappointing. You used to make a lot of shows.
Now you show movies almost all of the time. You finally made a new show, The Ark, and it's a great show. Now I'm hearing that it's probably going to be ending after 3 seasons. Again, disappointing.
Why have you gotten away from making great shows? You don't even show the ones that you already made as reruns.
I believe people who missed them the first time would really enjoy them. Thank you for listening.
- Way too many movies
Preferred solution: More shows less movies
User's recommendation: Look up old Syfy shows

Endless *** and nothing else
The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.
We used to enjoy your channel and its programming. All that has been on lately are endless repeats of ***.
One would think that you have a large inventory of movies.
Why the constant Hardy Potters? Im craving Dracula, 50s *** monsters, or maybe some new programming.
- Classic science fiction
- Endless harry potters
Preferred solution: Variety of monsters old and new
User's recommendation: Variety

Hating the sci-fi channel playing mostly ***. I hardly watch it anymore.
This new programming of just *** is so annoying. If we want to watch it over and or we will buy the series collection. I dont watch sci-fi channel anymore because of *** being on constantly.
User's recommendation: Stop playing Harry Potter constantly. It’s so redundant.

Verified Reviewer[PERSON_NAME] movies
- - The reviewer is unhappy about Harry Potter movies airing all week on SyFy.
- - The films also air on USA, E!, and SyFy three days a week.
To say I'm a pissed consumer is a damn understatement, it's complete bullshit that those damn stupid [PERSON_NAME] movies have been shown on the SyFy network all damn week, they have shown nothing else but those stupid ass movies. People need to grow the hell up, and whoever chooses the content that the network shows should be fired cause 3 days a week those damn movies are shown enough Is enough with the stupid [PERSON_NAME] movies.
I wish they would never be shown again but to show them for a whole week thats bullshit and that definitely needs to be stopped.
Every week those damn movies are shown on three different networks, USA network, E entertainment network and the SyFy network, that's bullshit they show the movies instead of something better. I absolutely hate the damn [PERSON_NAME] movies
Preferred solution: For them to stop showing the damn Harry Potter movies 3 days straight every week

Too Much ***
*** over and over and over. Too Much.
This is NOT Syfy normal content. Need more disaster and space movies or even Outer Limits or Twilight Zone
User's recommendation: BAN SYFY until content changes back to its original scheduling

Was told it was a technical support line only gave me the run-around as always! I have emailed y'all and contacted by phone, and no one wants to take responsibility for airing [PERSON_NAME] 24/7. I guess I will call the cable company and tell them to cancel my Syfy subscription because I can go to Netflix or Hulu!
- Harry potter
User's recommendation: Do not get Syfy all they play is Harry Potter 24/7 , the channel is awful with a million Syfy movies all they have is dumb Harry Potter for kids! Ridiculous!

Complain about showing the same movies over and over again, especially Harry Potter.
Same shows/movies over and over, especially [PERSON_NAME]. It's been on for a couple of days straight, and now the series is starting again.
I used to love this channel; I watched it all the time.
Now, if I could get rid of it, I would. What a waste.

Agreed. All week long.
Nothing but Harry Potter! I'm blocking this channel for good!!!

I’m sick of seeing [PERSON_NAME]. When the main character went on to be in “miracle workers “ he destroyed his legacy as [PERSON_NAME], and brought shame to his name.
Stop playing [PERSON_NAME] so much!!! SyFy plays the series entirely too much. Its not like they dont have any other movies to show.
User's recommendation: The only recommendation I have. Is when they do a potter marathon change the channel
Olathe, Kansas
Syfy just plays [PERSON_NAME] all the time.
Play actual si fi movies and series instead of [PERSON_NAME] all the time. The syfy channel use to be ok, not great but just ok. Now it is not worth watching.
User's recommendation: Don't buy syfy channel, not worth it
Agreed. I'm sick of this stupid movie!
I'm blocking this channel from now on!
Go to Pluto TV. They have better Sci-Fi channels.

SICK OF REPETITIVE [PERSON_NAME] MOVIES
We should not have to pay for stupid repetitive [PERSON_NAME] movies. SYFY sucks!
The channel is stuck on [PERSON_NAME] on weekends or like this week 24/7! The channel uses the stupid 3 hr movies that are memorized by everyone now to set & forget having to schedule any updated movies or new programs!!!
User's recommendation: DON'T PURCHASE SYFY SUBSCRIPTION

Complaint
- - Back-to-back ads are frustrating.
- - They may cause viewers to change the channel.
- - Viewers may seek alternatives, risking revenue.
Let's talk about irresponsibility and why would you allow commercials to play back to back in the same time frame. Advertisements by themselves are bad enough and annoying but to play them twice or more just makes me want to change to another channel..
Don't you realize you're ruining television as we know it by this.
After a while people will find something else to do with their time and you will lose revenue .. Duhhhhh!
Smithville, North Carolina

I'm 75 I was watching Syf since you started. You don't have SYF MOVIES ANYMORE ITS JUST [PERSON_NAME] OR SOME OTHER KIDS SHOW GO BACK TO THE REAL SYF MOVIES THANK YOU
