I hate the whole commercials being 3 time louder than the feature thing, but **** man do they even listen to their programming at all?

Sounds terrible.

Seems the loudness war permeates everything
i hate having to ride the freak-in remote just to what t.v..
you are not alone.
but it is not limited to the sci-fi channel it is all the channels.
