My final thoughts: it’s a risky move, but let’s hope SCI FI rolls a “hard six”. 21 at 9, where it will lead into “Battlestar.” Stern said the cabler is hoping that “Dresden” will bring in a new and broader audience to the latter.īTW, HUT levels = households using television. Sci Fi Channel also will debut its detective drama “The Dresden Files” Jan. “Sunday is the home for premiere programming and for us, that’s ‘Battlestar.’ ” In addition, he added, Sundays have bigger HUT levels and will be less competitive come January when football leaves the sked.įrosh one-hour “Eureka” showed that “we can launch a show successfully on a new night beyond Friday,” Stern said. “Broadcast and cable networks realized Friday was not such a bad timeslot, so it’s not the easy lay-up it once was,” he said. Sci Fi exec VP of programming Mark Stern said there are two reasons for moving the series. UPDATE: Variety explains the motivation behind the move: One suggestion… how about re-airing Heroes in the time slot before BSG? Now that would be a Sci-Fi Friday! Now I’m sure BSG isn’t at risk of being cancelled, but it seems like SciFi would do better to bolster up their Friday evening programming, and move BSG back to 10pm. In general, moving a show to different timeslot in the same season is a recipe for disaster, and often a sign of that something isn’t working (and even impending cancellation).
Is it me? Or does this seem pretty stupid?
ET/PT, following the premiere of the new original series The Dresden Files at 9 p.m. SCI FI Channel’s award-winning series Battlestar Galactica will move to a new timeslot starting Jan.
