some clarification is needed. on the US Sci-Fi Braveheart was never shown, nor was Passions
"(Braveheart has been shown on SCI FI in the past and the NBC soap opera Passions is currently shown) "
Changed name to: 1. Use Correct Corporate Name 2. Help avoid confusion with U.K. channel, which is not the same
I was under the impression that the U.K. channel was simply called Sci Fi without the word "Channel" -JonMoore 08:55, 20 Jan 2004 (UTC)
Both channels are called, simply, "Sci Fi" -- the "channel" and country designation is for disambiguity. Davodd 06:11, Jan 21, 2004 (UTC)
I made the mistake of moving the German version to "Channel" from "channel" for consistency only to find that the UK version had been moved in the opposite direction (capitalisation-wise). Perhaps as the name is simply "Sci Fi" we could move all three to something like Sci Fi (United States television channel), Sci Fi (United Kingdom television channel), and Sci Fi (German television channel)?

I added the founding year of the channel and some more recent show titles, and also changed the name of Deepwater Black to Mission Genesis. (The show was called MG in the US and DB outside the US, so I think this is more appropriate, since we're talking about the US version of Sci Fi.)
Other Movies Shown on SciFi?
Does this merely include B-movies not produced by their film productions or simply anything aired thereon that's a film? DrWho42 23:52, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
Back in '92 when the channel launched, just before they started the movie star wars, they had a 10 second bumper that read "Dedicated to --" with three names listed. My memory isn't great, but I think two of the names they mentioned were Issac Asimov and Ray Bradbury. If anyone could remember or find out the names this should be something added to the trivia section. MindScream 14:19, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
SCIFI World
Doesn't any remember this format of marathons that eventually became the habit of the channel?
It stood for:
Superheroland
Creatureland
Intergalacticaland
Fantasticland
Inhumanland
And during the early run of these came with little animations and facts during the shows run but eventually faded away as time progressed..DrWho42 10:28, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
