[QUOTE="frandelgearslip, post: 2186930, member: 19631"] Best: 1. Babylon 5 --definately the best science fiction I have seen. The fifth season was not the best, but thats because everything got shuffled with the almost cancelation at the end of the fourth season. I mean there was so many moments that rank among my favorite all time moments from kosh's death (both the good version and the later evil version) to vir waving at whats his face's severed head on a pike after promising a couple seasons before that he would do that very thing. 2. Adventures of brisco county jr. Yeah I know but this is from my childhood and is the first television show that I watched that had actual real contiuntity and I am a sucker for continuity. 3. Star trek ds9 -- The best of the treks, in fact the only one that I ever really liked. Also the only one that didn't drown the viewers in a pile of technobabble. Plus Garik was one of my favorite characters of all time. Plus the only trek with continuity (did I mention I love continuity). Plus sisko would kick the ass of picard, kirk, janeway and scott bakula's character all put together in a heartbeat. 4. firefly -- had great promise. 5. I forgot this at first mystery science theater 3000. Excellent show, techinically science fiction, plus lots of the movies were science fiction. I thought the cut scenes in between the movie were some of the korniest crap ever but there reviews of movies are awesome note: Buffy/Angel is fantasy so I didn't list them otherwise 1. angel, 2. buffy, 3. babylon 5... Worst: 1. Star trek voyager: I despise this show with all my heart. nuff said. (Oh and also those one aliens that were given a number designation were such ripoffs of babylon 5.) Hell I could do a thread of just the top 100 reasons I hated the show, but I won't since the show has few defenders. 2. earth final conflict -- the first season was okay and the premise was great (ie. the classic benovalent aliens come down to save humanity from themselves, but turn out to be evil) But through its five seasons the shows quality decreased exponentially ( and it wasn't great to begin with) 3. Alias -- I watched the first two seasons, but the show has the same bad quality that I have as a dm. I get excited about new ideas too easily and if I let myself I'll rewrite my campaign world every other month. Alias does this every half season. 4. Farscape -- John crichton, especially in the early seasons, is an awesome character, but I don't know how many episodes one can have where some portion of the crew goes insane or turns evil. Farscape seemed to think that every other episode was a nice balance. 5. Dark angel -- Show sucked, jessica Alba hot, you know what thats enough to redeem it in my book, so strike it from my list. New number 5 -- Battle star Galactica any version old, 1980, new, super ultra new whatever, there is about 100 other shows that deserved to be remade than this pile of garbage. [/QUOTE]
