The Syfy Channel is often associated as a place comprised entirely of fairytale and alien programming. Some might think it is a channel people quickly switch away from for fear of being labeled a nerd or geek. The honest truth, the Syfy channel has a little something for everybody.
Regardless of perception there is one show that might be worth checking out. Latest ratings have Penn and Teller’s show Wizard Wars commanding a weekly viewership upwards of 1.68 million people.
