S.C.I.F.I. World was a daytime programming schedule for the Sci Fi Channel that started on July 17, 2000 and ended on December 21, 2001. It aired reruns of science fiction series blocked in mini-marathons through the week.
Format
Divided into five different segments in accordance with the days of the week, each day centred on a particular science fiction theme, which the marathons followed, airing from 10 AM to 4 PM. These themes were named in such a way that, when assembled, they formed an acronym matching the SCI FI of the channel's name.
Fantastic Land, which deviated from the usual science-fiction focus unto more fantasy-based shows like Night Gallery, Otherworld, and Darkroom. The first marathon aired thereon was of Quantum Leap. These shows could be seen on Thursdays.
Inhuman Land, akin to Creatureland's theme, every Friday focused on monsters but more along the lines of a conspiratorial scope and concerned the humanoid kind as was depicted in an animation of Carl Kolchak trying to evade a werewolf in the shadowy alleys of Inhumanland. Shows aired included Dark Skies, Alien Nation, and Something is Out There. The first marathon aired thereon was of Manimal.
To reinforce this novelty, the programming schedule was advertised by way of animations depicting it as a theme-park which various science-fiction characters such as James T. Kirk, Duncan MacLeod, and RoboCop inhabited. Aside from this, graphic teasers, trivia, and on-air questions were aired to amuse and inform the viewer and promote the SciFi.com website.
Despite criticisms made by viewers in favour of reverting to a more varied programming schedule, this format of airing marathons five times a week continued for many years, although S.C.I.F.I. World was no longer used as a title.
