    Look, I don't the channel is going to lose it's base. Not at all.
    I think what I (and TBO for the most part) am saying is that it's just really sad. It's another big nail in the coffin of anything that remains of interesting television. At least where identity is concerned.

    Does it look and feel this way because it serves the content and the viewers who dig the content? No, it's about roping in more people to make more money from media sales.

    This isn't the channel flying it's freak or "sci fi" flag in a new and interesting way at all. It's pulling the flag down to half mast and not (as some twerps like to call us/them) "so nerdy." Which it fucking never did, btw. It's watering the channel down to make it blend in more with the others. Remember MTV 20 years ago? It was pretty cool and different and changed a lot of shit. Look at it now.

    Look, I get it. I work in the industry. It makes sense and it will probably make more money for the channel and it's advertisers. Just saying it sucks (the move, not the work itself. Again, nice job Proud).
