Sci-fi does do well in Ireland just not on RTE or TV3. If you were a fan of any Sci fi you were watching Sky One or other Satellite channels, Not RTE. Doctor Who would be the exception to that rule. It really didn't have a following in Ireland in general. When Alan Shatter the former Justice Minster (and big Doctor Who fan) made a joke about being Minster for Time back in 2013, it went right over the head of most people.
Star Trek, The Next Generation was only a few days/weeks behind US transmission for most of it's run on RTE. Generally US shows in the 80's and 90's from the states were only weeks behind and a few times were shown before US transmission.
