I get three music video channels, two with nothing but reality TV, and the women's network, and I would gladly exchange all of them along with a dozen others for SNN. |
|
|
[+] Definite bun, especially if you can promise it won't succumb to the temptation to run hyped-up, bad-science 'science' stories. |
|
|
No, that's why the science channel has so many really old re-runs... |
|

There always seems to be something in the science section of yahoo news. Much cool stuff, too. Furry lobsters and whatnot. |
|
|
(+) I am really surprised; I always thought it was existing at least in the US. |
|
|
[+] Actually SNN might be the only network where having a reality show would'nt suck as bad. |

A great series for this channel would be "Mad Scientists". I envision a team of 4 or 5 nerds who tackle some wild scheme each week - build a railgun, make liquid sodium depth charges, homemade thermite, etc. Sort of Mythbusters meets Jackass: science slaved to the service of spectacular mayhem. |
|
|
For once I would like the camera person to be a part of the team, too. Offering witty off camera comments, poking a face around into the lens from time to time, etc. |
|
|
I'd imagine there would always be a phD student somewhere willing to get his work on the air. |

We get Brainiac here (AU) too. It's lame. Rough Science was better - drop a group of working scientists on a deserted island and let them use their skills in survival related tasks. |

Cool, they're reshowing the one where Neil Armstrong landed on the moon. |

How did this get so many buns, and my Nerd Radio idea got boned? :*( |
