Crabbe, or Giraurd?

Firefly. While I would like more tales of Bab5, JMS got to tell the entire tale as he saw it. That's rare in a show.

Thanks to Erin Gray, I dated myself on every episode, sometimes more than once.

I liked Space: above and Beyond

It ended a season too soon, maybe because of a writers strike?

Especially Lt Shane Vansen (Kristen Cloke)

She still looks good

Up against sports in the Sunday 7pm slot. They'd pre-empt it and lose viewers that wouldn't wait.

I thought Farscape was cool as a kid. Didn't get everything going on, but I liked how scifi it felt.

Tried to rewatch it last year for nostalgia. That shit did not stand the test of time. Painfully bad.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is the show I grew up watching every Saturday morning. That shit didn't rely on anything but good jokes so those have survived the test of time REALLY well. Some of the pop culture/politics references from the day will be lost on modern viewers but 95% of jokes they make will still connect even when my kids are old enough to appreciate them.

Space 1999
I think I actually liked Battlestar Galactica v2.0 better than the first. Katee Sackhoff helped with that decision.
Farscape
Stargate series, the portal between worlds is a fun concept

of course Lexx, such a weird-ass series, I was surprised it lasted as long as it did

A good website for Sci Fi and other genre is Uncle Earl's classic TV. Links to other hosting sites. The base site is classic wrestling TV. Another form of fiction.
