Ask yourself how many popular sci-fi shows that plenty of geeks enjoy still get canceled in their infancy, because they don't bring in enough money almost immediately for those who bankroll them to continue writing the cheques until the series is established.

What actually springs to my mind is, how many of those popular, canceled sci-fi shows were actually successful (in terms of being well in the black when all expenses and all venues of distribution are considered) and were only killed because they didn't bring in as many viewers as the more successful non-scifi shows.

Yeah, what's with all that "music" and "movies" and "books" and "video games" etc crap? I just can't understand how anyone in their right mind could need to make or enjoy that stuff, when they could instead go work for a couple more hours per day in the fields or in the mines or something equally real and worthwhile. If everyone worked 16 hours per day instead of just 8 and then wasting the rest, just think about how much more advanced a civilization we'd be.
