Subject: [WSFA] Fwd: Announcing The Wil Wheaton Project

Excerpt:
The Wil Wheaton Project is a weekly roundup of the things I love on
television and on the Internet, with commentary and jokes, and the
occasional visit from interesting people who make those things happen.
It’s sort of like Talk Soup for geeks, with a heavy focus on those
hilariously bad paranormal reality shows (in fact, that’s where the whole
thing started a year ago, but as we worked on the show more and more, we
discovered that there were lots of scripted paranormal shows that provided
a ton of comedic material. When we expanded to cover the scripted shows,
we discovered that nobody was doing a show like this that was just focused
on the genre shows that nerds like us love, and we decided that we’d make
that show because of reasons.)
<...>
The series premieres Tuesday, May 27 at 10PM ET/PT on Syfy.
<...>
I really love that I get to be part of something that brings Science
Fiction back to Syfy, and if I read correctly between the lines during our
meetings with the Syfy executives, this is just the beginning of the
network formerly known as Sci-Fi returning to its science fiction roots,

And they're going to make fun of the scripting supernatural "reality" shows!
