I Have Only One Word to Say: Good.

It seems that the Sci Fi Channel is being sued by one of the victims (and I use that word advisedly) of its new "reality" show Scare Tactics. To quote the LA Times:

Blank said she was led to believe by the organizers of the show, some of them allegedly using fictitious names, that she had won an invitation to an exclusive Hollywood party at a Southern California desert resort. She said she was traumatized after the car taking her to the party stalled along a remote stretch of desert and she was told by the people accompanying her, who are named in the suit as actors on the show, to run for her life into a nearby canyon to escape harm by an alien attacker.

Honestly, what kind of juvenile asshole thinks something like that is amusing and OK to do? Come on, Skiffy, grow up. Then again, I guess this sort of idiotic immaturity shouldn't be too surprising from the network that thought Farscape was too mentally taxing.

"The Sci-Fi Channel," the article continues, "could not be reached for comment." Doesn't surprise me in the slightest...
