    To their credit, the Horror Channel does put on a fair bit of sci fi content in the form of both series and films.

    Yes Horror really stands for Horror and/or Sci-Fi.

    Yay, a show I will actually watch

    I downloaded a few episodes last year. One of the campest shows I have ever seen in my life but I actually really liked it. I shall set SERIES RECORD.

    Xena: Warrior Princess doesn't fit in either category so it should Horror, Sci-Fi and Fantasy :D

    They show a lot of similar material earlier in the evenings, with the horror later.

    I'd like the channel more if it were HD.

    I agree, although fantasy is often subsumed by sci-fi in media labelled "sci-fi."

    I guess it's difficult to come up with a short snappy name for a TV channel that shows all three.:)

    I suppose it might happen at some point. But all the CBS channels could do with higher PQ, even if just to the standard of terrestrial SD.

    Should the show be in 4:3? When I turned it on it was 16:9 unless it's been cropped?

    In 2006, the sci-fi channel in the US, it's highest rated show was wrestling.

    People complained about it, which did nothing but lead WWE to try to add sci-fi elements to the wrestling. Which was odd.

    Well horror channel has been airing sci-fi shows such as The Twilight Zone, Xena, Angel and Firefly for years before they even acquired Wonder Woman it's a little late to get hung up about the channel name now

    I suppose they could change the name to the Cult Channel which would fit all three genres we've mentioned

    Season 2 is being shown now, this is set in the present (70s) rather than WW2 like Season 1.

    The Horror Channel should rebrand as CULT TV or something like that.

    That's the one with the crap theme music isn't it?

    (And less appearences of Diana Prince wearing glasses, but no one twigs she & WW bear a striking resembalance to one another, apart from the one episode in the previous series where the villians twig so!)

    Be fair the inhabitants of DC Comics world are notoriously stupid... after all they don't realise that Clark Kent is Superman

    It's not that they're stupid it's just that it's an inherent aspect of that universe that glasses (and eye masks) are an impenetrable disguise :D
