Chris, the show's been cancelled. According to Pat G. the Discovery
channel and ESPN have both expressed interest in it, so it may end up
on one of those channels.
They stated the ratings were good but the viewers were not Sci-Fi viewers so
they had no viewer retention after the shows ended. For a network it's about
holding the viewer after the show. If the regular Sci-Fi viewers leave
during the telecast it's regarded as a negative. It will return. I have
enjoyed watching them so far.
Yeah, putting a reality show on SciFi never made much sense to me,
since it's not SF. Maybe they figure they've already got all the
hardcore SF fans and were hoping to draw in some new viewers.

SCI-FI viewers were complaining on the Master Blasters forum at scifi.com
about pre-empting some other actual sci-fi show.
Wouldn't it be better to show the paid for episodes than reruns of some
other show? I can't believe reruns would make more moeny than a first run
show. I never watch reruns if I can help it.

If they want to do a *successful* reality show on the Sci-Fi Channel, it
would have to be about a bunch of overweight, pimply, pizza-eating,
34-year-old male virgins who rarely leave their mom's basement except
for their quarterly bath or to attend Star Trek conventions dressed as
Klingons in the hope of meeting their dream girl - a 225-pound ex-goth
chick who speaks fluent Klingon and hasn't owned a toothbrush since
being kicked out of her parent's home at age 16.
That totally mirrors a certain roommate I had several years ago ;/
Gave the uber nerd the boot when I discovered that this nerd never
discovered the need to take a shower, pay his bills, communicate with
spoken words, take care of his dog, COMPLETE lack of common sense.....
This uber nerd was ONLY concerned with a stupid fantasy computer game,
Everquest.
It eventually involved the local feds and certain weapons that uber nerd
had in my basement.
Any wonder why I have serious bias against nerds? Geeks on the other
hand are a-ok with me.
