I think we are seeing the end of traditional network tv because of the internet.

Back in ‘78-’79, a sizable group would gather in my dorm room to watch “Battlestar Gallactica” on a new, 19” RCA ColorTrak color TV, which I’d paid for with the sweat of my summer job.

I’m not sure I ever got used to seeing Ben Cartwright in space.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

I wish.
Presently, the only downloadable purchase of episodes of favorite series is in the "IClod" format. Not buying that.

Disagree.

i think we're seeing the end of the Nielsen rating system, and other such monitors of viewing habits in favor of download statistics.

Unfortunately, even for SciFi, Bonnie Hammer is married to an out-moded rating system even more faithfully than she is to her husband.

What Ronald D. Moore could have done with a full five years...

Rachel dear, i think you probably want to be a part of Kevin's two ping lists.

Isn’t there a ton of shows out there over three years old doing well?

House, 24, 2 and a half men, numbers and so forth.

With the DVD sale of TV series (both old and new) these guys have a whole new and lucrative revenue stream. I can see the day when a TV is just used as a means to introduce people to a series they can only get on DVD or by download.
