Best Sci-Fi television series EVAR!

ST: TNG- Since I never really watched the orginal series till after this came out I thought this was coolest thing since sliced bread.

I dunno. Sliced bread is pretty cool.

 

[Staffan]

Firefly- Had this show stayed on the air longer I think it would be on the top of my list. I hope there is a layer of hell reserved for the people who cancelled this show.

A special level of hell.

Well if I'm not mistaken X-Files set the bar, raitings wise, for what they expect from genre shows. Which of course is totally unfair since X-Files was an anomaly. Hell even the X-Files didn't start with great ratings. It wasn't until what, the third season, before it started getting the amazing ratings?

That's what I was hinting at, they seemd to judge the newer shows on the success of an established show while ignoring it's own rocky start, thus proving their own stupidity.

Babylon 5 and Farscape here

 

[Sir Osis of Liver]

Farscape is number one all the way!

G vs, E gets props a s number two in my book though.

 

[Larry Fitz]

What about Johnny Socko and His Flying Robot? Or the classic Gigantor.

Seriously, while B5 did stand on the shoulders of giants (and not necessarily robotic ones) it had everything good drama needs, and the story came first, so it gets my nod...

edit: spelling and special effects

No, it's not just you. Ariddrake may have liked it, but he was not exactly in the majority.


As for 'G vs. E'...it was a great show that missed being brilliant by a teeny tiny bit, I think. Too bad it got done dirt so often by so many...and I'm not talking fans or reviewers, I'm talking network programmers, executive producers and studio representatives.

I just said LEXX because I have just watched the entire 2nd season on dvd and it's still in my head. I didn't watch it on TV my friend said it was off so I checked it out. The timing for the episodes were kind of skewed and there is some wierd bondage thing I think the writers were trying to work out.
