The Crotchety Old Fan really loves science fiction, and really really hates what the Sci Fi Channel calls science fiction.* So he’s scoured the Web for classic science fiction shows and has created a wonderful repository of links to old movies and TV episodes. There are hundreds of hours of programming to choose from, and he’s adding more all the time.
(I like his T-shirt design, too.)

*No, I mean he really hates it. His site contains an explanation of why he decided to put together the repository, and it’s titled:
THE SCREED
or
Why Redefining Science Fiction as ‘What If?’ is the most idiotic, moronic, lame-brained, ill-considered, ignorant, wrong-headed, ‘congratulations, you’ve just won a Darwin Award, please go kill yourself now’, stupidest idea ever conceived of by man
or
How To Destroy Your Audience by Insulting Them To Their Faces
He isn’t amused.
