Funniest show on television. Congratulations all.
Soon, the only science-fiction on SyFy will be advertising any of their drek as “original”
It’s fake
not uhh
Scare Tatics is the funniest show ever on television. HANDS DOWN, THE ABSOLUTE FUNNIEST SHOW ON TV TO DATE. Thank you Tracy Morgan and everybody else who is making the 5th season happen.
Funniest show on tv to date? You are an idiot.
dan i feel like an idiot for saying it but i agree nothing has ever made me laugh so much. yet for some reason i dont care to have it on dvd
This garbage gets renewed and wrestling is all over the place, but all three Stargate shows get cancelled and Dr. Who is hardly ever on anymore? What is the point of even pretending this is still a channel about Science Fiction?
How about more Doctor Who, Sarah Jane Chronicles, re-boot the Stargate franchise, and maybe expand the episode run for Warehouse 13 and Eureka.
I don’t think it is too much to ask to have Science Fiction on the Science Fiction network.
Dr. Who and Stargate have been on TV for 20 Fu*ken years. No one watches those sh1t shows anymore
They’re producing the show 18 months in advance? Why?
This show was only funny in the first season when it was an absolute trainwreck. Shannon Daugherty was maybe one of the worst hosts in the universe, but even better was when they would scream “you’re on Scare Tactics!” to the victim and he would just ignore it and tell them to shut up and call 911. They had to explain that Scare Tactics was a TV show where they prank people in pretty much every setup.
why did season 4 only have 7 episodes, & its going to be a year & a half till the next season??
first off. scare tactics isnt fake. secondly, they played a few episodes from season 4 lately, you can get up to S04E10.
