Is anyone watching this? It's a new digital sub channel that gears toward scifi movies. So far, they've shown Octaman, Robot Holocaust, Zone Troopers, and The Initiation of Sarah. I guess The Initiation of Sarah is a bit of a stretch, but I like a good witchy showdown.

It kinda seems like what MyTv used to be, before they decided to become just another  local UHF channel.

Yesterday, I was able to catch the 2nd half of Robot Holocaust.

So far, I've only been able to catch bulk reruns of Stargate SG1 & The Outer Limits, which I've already seen when they used to be on MyTv.

It looks hopeful, but I really want to see more movies than reruns.

Yup, got it here too. Fun choice of flicks, with good prints to show. Not that I still wouldn't LOVE to see reruns of MST3K!

Yeah, there is a lot of Outer Limits and Stargate SG-1. I was hoping they would show some even older movies like The Monolith Monsters, but they did show Night of the Comet and I love that movie.

Comet TV is starting to get on my nerves. The promos keep saying they're gonna show "A Message From Space", but it seems like all they have is The Outer Limits & Child's Play stuck on loop. Hatred

Aw, well, no joy here in Topeka, KS, where watching paint dry, grass grow, and street lights change color are still top attractions.

We got it here-I watched the VAMPIRE AND THE BALLERINA (1960),KONGA (1960),and SUPERBEAST (1972)-I just wish they would play more movies and less Stargate and the updated Outer Limits.

I keep seeing The Return Of Dracula, followed by reruns of SG1...

This is starting to turn into that soft oldies radio station that your boss makes everybody listen to that plays Sarah by The Jefferson Starship two or three times an hour even though it's an FCC violation because they can't find enough sponsors to buy a bigger record collection... Hatred

Yeah, this station has gone to pot with the quickness. I did manage to watch Futureworld and it were a real snooze.

Yeah-but its better than most TV-it showed the H-MAN (1959),THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN,and MOTEL HELL-so-thats better than Sasquatch hunters,midget families,singing contests...it had the Quartermass movie-the first one-with the blob that eats this guy up-the CREEPING UNKNOWN! That was great! Thumbup

Eh, the weekends are improving, I just wish they'd quit treating the weekdays like they're on autopilot. Lookingup

Yeah, THE CREEPING UNKNOWN is a keeper, along with some others. For 'free TV' that's some improvement.

I really like a Canadian channel called CFTV - they play lots of classic movies and last Saturday I caught the original Outer Limits and Kung Fu on there.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
