It's been on Netflix outside the US and Amazon Prime in the US since season 1. You can't blame this one on the lack of a streaming option.

Edit: Wow, those are some fast downvotes. Here are sources if you don't believe me

In all fairness, they’re just distributors in this case and don’t hold the purse strings. It seems like a fairly dysfunctional distribution arrangement all around.

I agree with what I think your broader point is though that a second tier cable channel like SYFY is probably not in the position to produce expensive fairly niche programming any longer.
