the wonders of cable TV

ABC Family does some pretty crazy things at times. They come up with some wacky show ideas (one of the latest being some sort of show about whiny, shiny, too-skinny teen gymnasts). I turn on the TV this afternoon just in time to catch a commercial for...
Van Helsing on the family TV channel!
This channel usually shows things like Gilmore Girls and Funniest Home Videos, for goodness' sake! I don't object to the movie being on television at all--it's fun in the way that wonderfully cheesy movies are--but a movie with staking non-sparkly vampires and violence and Vatican jokes? Seriously?
(Understand, I can't stop laughing about this. I just remain baffled at the same time.)
