Favorite Sci-Fi TV series

[Tom K]

Babylon 5 was a great series because unlike most television shows, it was written with a 5-year story arc in mind. It actually had a planned ending and was not just strung out as long as the gravy train would last. J. Michael Straczynski wrote most of the episodes and included tidbits in early seasons that would show up years later, and then make sense. It took a dedicated viewer but now that it's on DVD it can be enjoyed at a person's leisure.

Unfortunately the idiot networks made it uncertain as to whether there would even be a 5th season, so JMS had to compress events in season 4 a lot. Consequently season 5 is a little disjointed, but still good stuff.

Although hoakie when I watch it now, Lost in Space was it for me when I was a kid growing up in the 60's. I had a crush on "Penny", maybe that was it?.

Time Tunnel, Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits.

Kolchak the night stalker and the Invaders, when I was a kid the Invaders scared the heck out of me.

Twilight Zone.

[RonJ]

The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.

Yeah buddy! Brisco, Bowler and Dixie were about as cool as tv characters get. If it's available on Netflix I highly recommend it.

Edit: Just checked NetFlix and it's not available for streaming but DVD's are available.

Another vote for Firefly!!!

 

[plainshunter]

Farscape and Firefly were my all time favorites
After that would have been Stargate SG-1, but it got a bit long in the tooth at the end

*in no particular order:

- original Star Trek
- original Twilight Zone
- original Outer Limits
- Dr. Who (Tom Baker only for me, please.)
- I can't believe noone's mentioned, "UFO". I LOVED that show when I was a kid and its early '70's british post-mod cheesiness is something that still trips my trigger. Coupla hot babes, too.

I'll admit a lot of my sci-fi likes are babe dependent; Wilma Derring (Erin Grey)- Buck Rogers, Doyle (Brandy Ledford) - Andomeda. Seven of Nice (Jeri Ryan), Anna (Morena Baccarin) - V, Serenity, Dresen Files and Tamara Johansen (Alaina Huffman) - Stargate Universe, Painkiller Jane.

edit: How can I forget Smallville? Zatanna (Serinda Swan) being my favorite yummy, Lana, Lois, etc.
