Sigh. A measly eight million viewers. Consider -- With just shy of 3
million viewers (at 10 pm on a Friday night, no less) Battlestar
Galactic is a blockbuster hit for the Sci-Fi Channel. Hell, Stargate:
SG-1 was a top performer last season with about 2.5 million viewers in
the 8 p.m. time slot. And Stargate: Atlantis was even bigger at 2.6
million in the 9 p.m. slot.
Hopefully, Sony is doing some serious talking to Sci-Fi and USA.
