    What the hell does cheap soft porn have to do with Sci Fi? I'm sick of sitting down every night hoping to catch something slightly interesting and then all of a sudden some crap comes on that's got nothing to do with what I want to watch are they that stuck for programming? Hey I'm no prude but this stuff has its place and it ain't here it's a tad insulting that the channel decide anyone up after 12 just wants to watch this sh1te to the best of my knowledge the US version of the channel doesn't have this.

    Isn't it Emmanuel from the future. I agree though that it doesn't belong on the Sci Fi Channel.

    The good news is that Veronica 2030 is on at 12.30 am! Its rather better than the Emmanuelle related crapolla. :)

    Softcore porn anywhere, on any channel should be banned imo.

    Emmanuel brings me back to my youth.

    See, what you don't realise, is that it's actually comedy in disguise. Ever watched fellatio happening on those shows, the girl's head is normally just tossling about, it's more likely that she's blowing baby kisses on the guy's belly than actually getting up to no good.

    The illusion is shattered.

    Give me a few hours of Outer Limits reruns or cheesy sci-fi B movies instead of this sh*t.....

    You're absolutely right. From now on, go to channel 6 for your soft porn needs.

    Hehe Sci Fi have been showing the same stuff (Emmanuelle in Space a number of times) for the past 3-4 years at least. :p They could at least bump up the anime or manga stuff before it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    I e-mailed them about thier relentless repeatition of the Emmanuelle themed films and they got fewer after a while. If they want to show erotica with a sci-fi/fantasy twist ther are other films out there.

    Isn't SciFi all about presenting pasty white guys with images and ideas of things they'll never experience eg far off planets, time-travel, naked women etc?

    Well Emannuelle is in Space & the year 2000, you don't get much more sci fi than that. Plus like science fiction you have to suspend disbelief during the "sex" scenes.
