Just found a lovely little article about the stigma of being a TV science fiction fan, and how little the image actually matches the reality. Here's a sample:
Ultimately, the basic reason people are reluctant to take TV shows seriously is that most TV shows are garbage. But perhaps that's so precisely because we're afraid to expect or demand anything else, because we aid and abet TV companies in treating shows as interchangeable and disposable. You miss "Farscape"? Here, shut up and have a series about man-eating, giant earthworms instead.
Ain't it the frellin' truth...
