Actually, many areas of the country do not recieve UPN, over the air or over cable. Alot depends on the city you live close to and whether or not that city broadcasts UPN. If it doesn't, then even your local cable station most likely will not carry an UPN station (unless your lucky?). So I can see why a Sci-Fi show would have hella more viewers than a show on UPN.
