Life could be this beautiful without NBC-TV in it.

And guess what, they are all on Sci-Fi Channel!!
1) Ronald D. Moore's "Battlestar Galactica"
What? "Battlestar Galactica" is in the title? Ronald D. Moore's series produced for Sci-Fi Channel is a pathetic, cliched, hodgepodge of a mess flea marketed together from bits and pieces of "Star Trek", "The Thing", "Invasion Of The Body Snatchers", "Space: Above & Beyond", "X-Files", the endless teen dramas produced by Aaron Spelling, daytime soap operas, etc. Ronald D. Moore should watch the movie "Space Mutiny" available on VHS. In it, Moore will learn that he is no better than the hack producer who made that movie. While "Space Mutiny" stole all of the space footage from the 1978 epic "Battlestar Galactica", Ronald D. Moore stole the title and some character names from the same saga. More "Star Trek" than anything else and wrapped in a package called "Battlestar Galactica", Ronald D. Moore's first outing as a solo producer will hopefully be his last. Complaints far and wide coming from the very few viewers who have watched his series accuses Ronald D. Moore of being the most notorious plagiarist in Hollywood history.
2) Bonnie Hammer's "Saturday Night Movie"
From "Frankenfish" to "Mansquito", the crap being broadcast on Sci-Fi Channel every Saturday night has been a sad moral commentary of what can happen when the wrong people own and manage a Science Fiction channel. Making Ronger Corman's horror flicks from the 1960's look like King Lear, the people responsible for the Sci-Fi Channel's Saturday night movies should be tarred, feathered, and burned at the stake. Slowly making her rounds through the entire animal kingdom, Bonnie Hammer's fetish for mutated critters has resulted in the broadcast airwaves being wasted on the Sci-Fi Channel's crap every Saturday night. Is it enough that the subject matter of these movies has been nothing short of ridiculous? Adding insult to injury; bad producing, writing, directing, and acting plague the Sci-Fi Channel's original movies.
3) William Shatner's "Full Moon Fright Night"
Back when William Shatner hadn't made an ass out of himself for quite some time, somewhere around his pre-"Boston Public", post-"sing-a-long Price Line" commercials; he regained his crown with this utterly ridiculous romp. A totally forgettable trash fest devoted to the horror movies of Charles Band, Shatner showed off his lack of intervewing skills with guests such as Roger Corman in between long stretches of Charles Band movies that seemed to go on forever. My only question is, why did Bonnie Hammer hold Charles Band in higher regard than Roger Corman?
4) "John Edward"
This guy was supposedly discovered by Bonnie Hammer, which only adds to the absurdity of how this guy ended up on television in the first place. Claiming to talk to the dead, only to be debunked on "60 Minutes" as being a quack; Edward disappeared as quickly as Bonnie Hammer's ratings routinely do on any of her tv series.
5) "Dream Team"
A spin-off of "John Edward", the one or two episodes that "Dream Team" lasted barely gave viewers enough time to even know what the show was about. Was it something about astrology? Regardless, it looked so stupid I'm glad it only lasted one or two episodes.
6) "Scare Tactics"
Ha!! Ha!!! Hee!! Heee!!! Lets scare the shit out of somebody and laugh our heads off. Is this garbage still on the air?
7) "Sciography"
A two episode wonder from Bonnie Hammer. A "Biography" style program devoted to Science Fiction television series, this series showed so much disrespect towards "Battlestar Galactica" and "Quantum Leap", viewers demanded that the show be cancelled. Viewers got their wish after two episodes!!!
 "Black Scorpion"
47 minutes every week of soft porn from Bonnie Hammer and Roger Corman. A "Batman" style knock-off with a cute little gal in black leather fighting bad guys. The series would have lasted if only the producing, writing, directing, and acting was at a bare minimum, professional level.
9) "Stargate: Atlantis"
How can you keep milking to death an idea from Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich that wasn't terribly interesting in the first place?
10) "Stargate: SG1"
Ditto
