Smackdown is moving to Cable

[Big Sexy]

According to the main site Smackdown will be moving to the Syfy network sometime this fall. Same time slot but now everyone will be able to see it.

Even though it's not a major network, Syfy is light years ahead of MNT. nice upgrade.

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

Better than Bravo.

EDIT: American version of Bravo, which sucks. Heard British Bravo is pretty cooltacular or something.

They'll look for any excuse to bring back The Zombie.

 

[Slyfox696]

I'm surprised they couldn't get this on USA Network.

I'm very happy with the move. I haven't been able to watch Smackdown in God knows how long, but I do have the Syfy channel, so I'll be able to watch it again if I choose to.

This is great news for WWE and fans. Not so great for My Network TV. I have had different cable and satellite services and still haven't had My Network TV. I don't think I have been able to watch an episode of Smackdown since it was on WB.

I have MyNetwork TV, and I still don't watch it.


I wonder what would happen if Smackdown was on Tuesday, and NXT on Friday...

 

[klunderbunker]

The whole Friday night thing can be kind of annoying.

 

[Big Nick Dudley]

With how family-oriented Smackdown has become (even more so than Raw), I feel like I'm watching TGIF all over again (full house and such). I don't like it on Friday nights, but having it on SyFy will give more people an opportunity to check it out.

I'll be happy if they do move the show to syfy, Now I'll be able to watch SD. My local channel sucks and SD looks crappy and I just don't watch SD because of that.

 

[TLC]

This is good news, they might beef up the roster with some more stars in the draft now.

 

[Coco]

The Score's been considered "cable" for ages. Don't understand why this excites anyone.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Good move, although SyFY still seems a rather odd place for a wrestling show.

and yes, while we are at the changes, please go to Thursday

TNN seemed like a strange place, too.

 

[Mighty NorCal]

Not really. Hillbilly hick programming on the hillbilly hick channel

 

[D-Man]

Hey... I resent that.

 

[RVDgurl]

SD! to SyFy- Thank you, thank you, thank you.... I've been in complete Punk withdraw for way too long.

 

[Turd Ferguson]

RIP MyNetworkTV

(At least Sam Kinison is alive and well)

 

[Shocky]

I have explained the Smackdown to SyFy move fantastically in the official thread in the Smackdown section.
