A fair number of them are films made by other companies on the cheap
in some foreign land to cash in on tax deals then the US cable rights
are acquired on the cheap by Sci-Fi and the airings act as what
amounts to an ad for the otherwise direct-to-DVD release.  So even if
almost nobody was watching, they're darned profitable.  I don't think
anybody debates the business acumen of the programmers, just the level
of their crimes against acting, plotting, decency, and science.
