Cable TV in general has become a vast wasteland over the last decade.
Remember when cable TV actually meant getting getting REAL movies that came out 3-6 months earlier?

Now all they play, unless you PAY MORE, is decades old crap.

Prime example of the SEWAGE that now inhabits HBO....what USED TO BE a first run movie channel.
Sad.

It's because they use the same grade writer/actors that are utilized in other "bad" scripts that are sown by the MSM

It reminds me of the long run of Godzilla movies that were so bad they were laughable. The first one with Raymond Burr was actually not bad. But then they put a guy in a bad dino suit and the multitude of sequels just got worse and worse -yet people still went to see them!

The irony with the SyFy channel is that they are virtually impossible to submit unsolicited scripts to. They seem to hole themselves out as a channel with plenty of talent to draw upon, so lesser known writers need not apply. Yet we've all seem what their stable of writers are turning out!

In the really bad ones, they use semi retarded people to act.
I watched a zombie one about 6 months ago and i honestly thought it was a piss take until I realised they were using retards as actors/actresses.

Re: Why do SyFy Ch's Movies Suck Soooo Bad?
I haven't been watching television for a long time, but I think part of this has to do with the production side of things.
They take risks, which is good, but they seem to be banking on the idea that their movies don't have to be good, since they are small budget and the audience is, pretty much, going to be their audience.

It's a sham. New ideas and good scripts don't take that much work and their budgets aren't that tiny. Many good productions have been had for less, but someone in power has to bother to care about them.

Without that it doesn't matter how good the script is, or the actors, it will fail at some point.
