I Suspect That Even Ron Meyer of Universal Studios And All of His Immediate Subordinates Have No Clue How Many Sliced, Diced, And Elongated Versions of "Saga of a Star World" Are Floating Around The Universal Lot

Yes, Ron Meyer (the Head CEO of Universal Studios) knows everything there is to know about what goes on at Universal Studios...his studio....Except when it comes to knowing whether or not a complete version of...."Saga of a Star World"....(the pilot episode of the..."The 1978 Battlestar Galactica"....series) is still floating around his own studio 37 years later.

http://www.byyourcommand.net/cylongallery/displayimage.php?album=434&pid=18696#top_display_media

A complete sub-plot involving the..."Ovion Queen"....was filmed for...."Saga of a Star World"....Among many other never before seen scenes this blog has documented time and again.

In addition to the crappy box art, Universal Studios also only put out the...."Lazy Man's Edit"....of...."Saga of a Star World"....the ABC-TV butchered edit of the pilot Universal Studios has always found the easiest to pull out of its film vaults. Research never being one of the strong suits of Universal Studios since that would involve too much intellectualism in getting a handle on what it actually owns.

Yes, Nothing Quite Says a "Post-Turkey Day Marathon" On What Used To Be a Science Fiction Channel 15 Years Ago Than a "Die Hard" Movie Hacked Up For Commercial Breaks

http://www.syfy.com

...And all of the bad violence also edited out....

Here's a tip for the "SyFy Channel's" miniscule viewership....just watch a..."Die Hard"....movie on DVD (anytime you want to) instead without the commercial breaks and without the edited violence.

Contrasting The Present Hunk of Junk Cable Channel Infamously Known As "SyFy" With What The Great "Sci-Fi Channel" Used To Be Is Flat Out Disgusting

NBC-Universal is to blame for wrecking this once great Science Fiction cable channel with its...bland....general interest....ceaselessly contradictory and clashing,,,,rotten programming....that has still not successfully defined what sort of on-air identity this..."SyFy Channel"....is supposed to have.

Even in the film clip above, we can tell that even the filler material in between the regular programming on the once great..."Sci-Fi Channel"....was just as entertaining as the regularly scheduled shows themselves. The damage done to this once great channel by NBC-Universal is painfully apparent now. Wrestling anyone?

I've Got It. The Way The SyFy Channel Can Rip-Off Three Horror Franchises At The Same Time!!

"Lizzie Borden vs. Ash vs. Darkman" ....

And then put all three characters into a...."Sharknado"....movie while they're duking it out. You can't lose!! I'm talking a ratings juggernaut here!!

Thank God Universal Studios Doesn't Own The Rights To "Lost In Space"

http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/20/netflix-lost-in-space

If it did...the endless layers of conflicting and chaotic management within Universal Studios would have torpedoed this project as well...along with..."Battlestar Galactica 1978"....

You Mean, The SyFy Channel Has Never Issued Press Releases Boasting About How Often Its Productions End Up In The "Wal-Mart Discount $5.00 DVD Bin?"

I guess the little details in life frequently overlook the SyFy Channel. (Rolling my eyes)

The SyFy Channel Tries To Course Correct Itself For The Umpteenth Time With Yet Another Middling Effort Not Enough To Steer SyFy Away From Wrestling and "Sharknado" Flicks

http://variety.com/2015/tv/reviews/the-expanse-review-syfy-thomas-jane-1201644484/

We've heard this story dozens of times in SyFy Channel press releases. The SyFy Channel has finally..."recommitted itself to the goal of the original Sci-Fi Channel from 1990's. To offer space based entertainment and jettison the crappy horror movies the channel is infamous for"......Of course, no explanation is ever given by the SyFy Channel as to why it allowed itself to be detoured (in the first place) into the crappy likes of...."Sharknado"....anything else from...."Asylum Films".....wrestling etc....into a non-Science Fiction channel.

What I've pointed out in the past and what needs to be pointed out again is that the solutions to the SyFy Channel's woes does not involve (in all likelihood) a temporary return to space based entertainment with fare like..."The Expanse"....which will only and ultimately succumb to low ratings anyway because it was never terribly compelling in the first place....and then ultimately yank the SyFy Channel to one side once again forcing the channel to resume wrestling and crappy horror movies....abandoning its umpteenth promise to resume its mission of space based entertainment.

No, the solutions to the SyFy Channel's woes still involves a complete change in management from top to bottom. The present ancient management at the SyFy Channel still sees Science Fiction in two ways...1.Either not do it all or 2. Do it in boring, cliched, and unexciting ways which will ultimately return the channel to being...."Wrestling World"....of the basic cable landscape. The return always being a symptom of bad management.

Every attempt at Science Fiction on the SyFy Channel (including..."The Expanse"....) always and only looks like..."Blade Runner"...and..."Alien"...All of those attempts look like they are set in either universe. Overused after 15 years to say the least.

The Perfect Stocking Stuffer For Relatives Or Friends You Really Don't Like

We all have them. The relatives or friends we really don't like but we have a..."Christmas Moral Obligation"....to get them something anyway. 

This little bundle of yuletide horror should do the trick!! A collection of six crappy movies from the SyFy Channel movie library of..."All Things Crappy"....

Does The SyFy Channel Have Its Eye On Any Other Science Fiction Box Office Flops From Years Past It Would Like To Make Flop Television Series Out Of?

Show the SyFy Channel any box office flop from years past of a science fiction nature, and it will wrap its corporate arms around it and give it a great big smooch!!

Who can forget when the SyFy Channel dusted off Ridley Scott's old...."Blade Runner"...movie and had the nerve to call it..."Battlestar Galactica?"....What it was actually was...."GINO" - (Galactica in Name Only)....

"GINO"....was also a good chunk..."Rick Berman Era Star Trek"....and any other old science fiction movie or tv show Ronald D. Moore could remember watching as a kid on local UHF channels on Saturday afternoons back in the 1970's.

Let's look at the formula here that the SyFy Channel just couldn't resist turning into a flop television series. Perhaps the definitive box office science fiction flop from the mid-late 1990's starring Bruce Willis. I'm surprised the SyFy Channel didn't just make it a package deal and simultaneously make the other definitive science fiction box office flop from the mid-late 1990's starring Bruce Willis...."The Fifth Element"....into a flop television series as well.

The SyFy Channel dusted off John Carpenter's old box office flop from 1982 and called it...."Helix"...

Even better!! The..."Boredom Factor"....of this series was amplified 100 fold simply because Ronald D. Moore was involved with it. Typically, it limped along for two low rated seasons before no one noticed its cancellation. Much like..."GINO's"....cancellation after four low rated seasons.

With the SyFy Channel involved, there is always nowhere to go but down in the...."Pits Department"...

I submit this is the next batch of science fiction box office flops the SyFy Channel will try and turn into flop television series....

"Bad Management" Is Characterized By Either Not Doing Anything Constructive With a Property, Or Not Doing Anything At All With a Property

...And it has always been one or the other with NBC-Universal / SyFy Channel going back 35 years in its total mangling of the...."Battlestar Galactica"....property.

This lost cause of a corporation has a lot to show for its non-stop lunacy spanning those 35 years.

...."Battlestar Galactica".....still remains a sleeping giant (not an active franchise) undisturbed and unawakened during all of those 35 years.

No Matter How "Science Fiction-y" The SyFy Channel May Pretend To Be, It Wrecked Its Own Reputation By Putting Wrestling On The Air

http://www.syfy.com

No channel would ever be able to recover its reputation as a science fiction channel after putting junk like wrestling on the air....No matter how hard it would try and no matter how many new badly produced and badly written and alleged science fiction based television shows it may have in the pipeline.

The SyFy Channel is done....period. As it has been done for years. It has had too many lapses in good judgement spanning 15 years to ever recover from anything. It remains a badly managed general interest cable channel without a discernible and singular on-air identity.

If The SyFy Channel Wanted To Rip-Off "Supergirl" From CBS, What Would It Come Up With?

The Supergirl we all know and love from CBS. Accurately based upon the classic character from the comic books. A moral center, core values, justice for all.

This is the version of Supergirl the SyFy Channel would probably come up with if it wanted to rip-off the current CBS series....

Grunge Girl

1. Mysterious girl falls to earth after her spaceship gets caught up in the trail of a comet.

2. She has tracks on her arms because she is a heroin addict.

3. A trail of blood thirsty zombies falls to earth at the same time she does from the same trail of that comet.

4. Edward James Olmos is the...."Frowning Faced Assassin".....out to get her who mysteriously knows who she is even before she does. The zombies are his minions.

5. She has super strength, she flies....and she's a prostitute.

6. The great metropolitan newspaper..."The Daily Rag"....wants Grunge Girl to be their mascot.

7. Grunge Girl has an evil twin (if that is even possible) since Grunge Girl is bi-polar herself.

8. Grunge Girl robs banks (flattens them) since she can't get decent employment herself.

9. Grunge Girl has been designated a..."Person of Interest"...by the...."Bureau of Extraterrestrial Affairs"....for the raping of innocent boys.

10. Grunge Girl lives in an abandoned factory (no bed) with the zombies constantly closing in on her.

Is It Only a Matter Of Time Before The "SyFy Channel" Rips Off The "Starz" Network "Ash vs. Evil Dead?"

http://www.latinpost.com/articles/95239/20151117/ash-vs-evil-dead-spoilers-season-1-episode-4-ash-makes-a-new-alliance-watch.htm

From experience via observation...I know darn well that the..."Starz Network - Ash vs. Evil Dead"....series is very much something on the SyFy Channel's corporate radar right now. They are watching this series with drool pouring out of their mouths. It's a series that the SyFy Channel just won't be able to resist ripping off  for very long...

1. The lantern jawed hero
2. A chainsaw as his primary weapon
3. The main hero is a smart ass with one liners
4. The 50 year old hero working in a Wal-Mart style retail store
5. Graphic makeup effects
6. A remedially handicapped marketing gimmick for fighting the undead.


At the very least....I suspect a hero like Ash will eventually show up on multiple episodes of..."Z Nation"...driving a beat up Chevy and sporting a chain saw.

The SyFy Channel...never having a discernible identity of its own over the airwaves....just steals the ideas from other television networks that do have their own discernible on-air identities over the airwaves....like..."Starz"....and absorbs all of those stolen ideas into a...gloppy...gooey....incompatible.....smorgasbord-esque....mess!!....infamously known as...."The SyFy Channel's Daily and Nightly Schedule"....

....What the SyFy Channel lovingly and affectionately refers to as......"Brand Filtering".....

"Which SyFy Monster Are You?"

http://www.syfy.com/quizzes/which-syfy-monster-are-you

Yes...after 15 years of always having its corporate finger on the pulse of what Science Fiction and Horror fans always want (rolling my eyes)....

....After 15 years of cancelling..."Stargate"...."Farscape"....and screwing up both..."Battlestar Galactica"...and..."Flash Gordon"....and everything else under the sun remotely connected to Science Fiction....

....After a decade of wasting its time with Ronald D. Moore and all of his monumentally uninteresting programming ideas...

....After 15 years of stripping the identity from the former and once great..."Sci-Fi Channel"....from the early to mid / late 1990's....and leaving in its place a monumentally crappy.... nameless, faceless, and identity deficient cable channel of any sort....

....And after 15 years of making the worst and most cheap ass horror movies both by itself and with..."Asylum Films"...

....NBC-Universal / SyFy Channel now has the confidence and unmitigated gall to ask an audience of its sad sack cable channel (an audience that never really existed in any definable  "Business- Metric Definition" terms)....what...."SyFy Monster That Non-Existent Audience Would Like To Be"....

I'm telling you...in this life it always takes all kinds....and NBC-Universal / SyFy Channel has been no exception to the rule for the past 15 years....in its total MANGLING of anything having to do with this troubled channel of indefinable clap-trap it created.

http://www.syfy.com

The only thing missing from the SyFy Channel right now is reruns of...."The Maury Povich Show"....

Oh darn...Did I just give the SyFy Channel some funny (weird) programming ideas? Non-Science Fiction of course.

"Ghost Hunters" Is Investigating The "U.S.S. Constitution!!"

http://www.syfy.com

That would be extraordinarily difficult, wouldn't it? For the..."Ghost Hunters"....cast and crew to go through their usual..."Heavily Scripted and Camera Blocked Schtick"...in such cramped quarters as a Navy ship?

I think they will rise to the occasion...no problem!! Let's join the cast and crew REHEARSING!!

1. Security cameras rigged in all of the corridors. Specially rigged to not show anything paranormal since nothing paranormal in reality actually exists....CHECK!!

2. Let's practice...."Panning The Cameras One More Time Left To Right Always Too Late"...in these cramped corridors so that the audience never sees what the...."Ghost Hunters Crew"....claims they have just seen of a paranormal nature...CHECK!!

3. Let's rehearse the script one more time....beginning at the point where the Captain of the...."U.S.S. Constitution"....is complaining to the..."Ghost Hunters"....crew about seeing ghostly watch standers with binoculars standing watch on the port, starboard, and aft sections of the ship late at night....even in dock!! (Cue up post-production visual effects and dubbing stage)....CHECK!! 

4. Let's practice (one more time) the door to the bridge opening by itself with the rope on the floor attached to it (out of camera range of course) pulling it open!!...CHECK!!

Let's download all of the..."Ghost Hunters".....scripts going back the past decade just to see who has written them all since they never get screen credits....CHECK!!

It Just Goes To Show That When Steven Spielberg Isn't There To Rescue Universal Studios From Its Own Stunning Lack of Imagination And Inspired Thinking....

http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2015/11/10/jem-and-holograms-pulled-from-theaters-after-two-weeks/

....Universal Studios falls down and goes...."BOOM!!"....at the box office!!

Steven Spielberg can't be everywhere, right? He can't be providing box office hits to Universal Studios all of the time. Sooner or later Universal Studios will have to stand up on its own two feet in order to hit a home run at the box office all by its little lonesome. When that may happen in the future for the very first time is anyone's guess....after 75 years.
