Point, and I won't argue the issue as far as value. (I feel the same exact way about the new Battlestar Galactica.) What we're talking about here is pure economics: if Skiffy has to pay anything on it, it doesn't get a chance, which is why we get lots of pilots and lots of "Boa vs. Python" movies. (Back when SCI FI Prime was running in '99 and afterwards, every last show run on the Channel was completely paid for by others. Farscape was paid for by Australia Channel 4 and EA, Lexx was a Canadian video tech workfare program, and everything else, from The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne to Black Scorpion, were shows made years before that couldn't get another venue to bite and pay for further episodes. I won't even talk about the primetime rejects, such as Stargate, The Outer Limits, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and Sliders, that Skiffy took for free after the original venues running them realized that they had already jumped the shark.)
