Movies

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Why is the stupid Harry Potter movies shown so much on this network, everytime there shown they show all the movies and for 3 days straight. Those movies are good and shouldn't be shown for that many days in a row, I absolutely hate those movies cause they have been shown to freaking much, they are absolutely stupid and make absolutely know sence to me.

From Wed the 27th to Sun the 31st there are showing all the Harry Potter movies for five straight days thats ridiculous, and they don't deserve to be shown that many days straight. People need to grow up and stop showing those stupid movies.

If I owned the SyFy network those movies would never be shown again. I'm tired of seeing them shown like this

Preferred solution: For the SyFy network to stop showing the Harry Potter movies so much

Ridiculous number of commercials and repeated incessantly, this Chanel is unwatchable due to the stupid number & length of breaks

Agreed. If isn't the Harry Potter movies.

Then its the stupid sharknado movies they got to have on every year! These stupid movies are getting old! I want the old Sci-Fi channel back!

Ever since Sci-Fi went to Sy-Fy it totally sucks now and I hate this station! I wished they would go out of business!

Why does the channel play a lot of non syfy movies? Today I have a line up of no science fiction shows.

I thought this was the science fiction channel. It’s turning into every other channel.

Objectionable Programming

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Dear Sci Fi overseers, I want to voice a major complaint over your programming of "The Predator" (on Thur., Jan 2.) on the SciFi Channel in the early afternoon. My children, and myself, liked the "Predator series" but I wasn't expecting over 200 *** bombs throughout the movie laced with other profanities.

However, the "F" word was the obvious word of choice for this entire movie. I was embarrassed that I turned it on and exposed my family to it for as long as I did. I recorded it for myself to see just how much crude profanity was used. It should have been "X" or "R" rated!

Why show this when young people are still in front of the television? Why not later in the night for "adult entertainment?

Why can't this station edit out the foul language? When the Trump administration takes office, I will lobby the FCC to restrict this kind of senseless, profane movie unless the vulgar words are edited out!

Too many reruns

I've been watching SyFy for well over 20 years. You have taken off the really great shows.

Now all you do is show the same movies over and over and over again every single week.

We as SyFy freaks are tired of the same old thing ever single day and month!!! When are you going to start showing something worth our while?

Tom Hanks and the America’s program

I love to watch beautiful documentaries about our wonderful Country, but when you choose a person who deliberately goes on a stupid saturday night live, and basically mocks over half of the American public as racist MAGA people, I wont be watching it, or anything else the man does! I am so sick of those holier than thou *** who have made millions and millions from everyday people, who just want some entertainment without their *** politics! Maybe one day before they become insignificant, theyll figure it out!

The worst programming of any channel!! Plays the same thing ad - nauseam.

Please rename the channel as it's general programming now.

How many times can you run Harry Potter ? Unbelievable!
