Personally I hate it with a passion. I saw they were showing the orginal Star Wars trilogy so I tuned in. That was a mistake. The commercials and the tv adverts for their shows were awful. Its agony to sit through a tv breaklet alone watch any of their orginial programinglike "Manswers" & "something ways to die" or whatever its called.

Try watching that crap at night. Nothing but UFC previews and ads for Extenze. I hate their shows and everything about it is so unappealing to me. Its self image is almost to over the top to begin with.

I've never gone back to it.

So what do you posters think of Spike TV?

Actually all they show is CSI: or CSI: New York. I remember when they'd show Star Trek DS9 or even Voyager. Now they show neither. :(

I like watching Gametrailers with Geoff and that warrior thing.

Other than that I couldn't care less.

The only time I remember watching that channel was for The Star Wars Trilogy, but other than that most of their shows are gross and offensive.

I like it. I watch CSI: NY and GTTV, 1000 Ways to Die is really interesting, and Manswers isn't too bad, the guy's kind of annoying though.

I only watch their James Bond marathons. Otherwise there is nothing on it that interests me (although 1000 ways to die is pretty good)

They seem to have more advertising per hour than other networks, the last time that they said they were airing the original trilogy it was actually the 97 re-edits, the dirty pigs!

They need to do those 3 hour marathons of Star Trek TNG again.

They have a lot of shows I watch, but they milk the heck out of everything with adverts and such. Also, they try too hard to flaunt sex appeal.

I HATE their 'tuff guy attitude: Guys rule! Woo, steroids! etc. The only time I watch Spike for any length of time is to watch reruns of CSI. I'm new to the series.
