[QUOTE="Villano, post: 5669013, member: 505"] I like the way you think. I've been saying that SyFy needs a movie host for years. Unfortunately, as much as I love Elvira's new show, I don't think it would work too well on SyFy. She seem to be airing them in blocks of "a few new episodes, followed by a bunch of reruns, a couple new ones, a lot of reruns, etc.". It's been on for a year, but they've only shown 20 of the 24 or 26 they're scheduled to air. However, there are plenty of other hosts out there like Penny Dreadful, Zomboo, Ghoul-A-Go-Go, Mr. Lobo, Monster Madhouse, and Dr Gangrene. Just checking out their websites, many say they are available for syndication. If you have access to their back catalogue of shows along with the new ones, you'll have plenty of episodes to spare. And then there are people like Roxsy Tyler who are just doing their shows on the web. No reason you can't air them on TV. You could even bring back guys like Dr. Sarcofiguy, whose shows are cancelled. Of course, these people show old, public domain films, so SyFy might not even care. Honestly, I can't even remember the last time SyFy aired a classic old movie, let along a B picture. It seems they only care about direct-to-video, bad CG crap. :( [/QUOTE]
