Spec me a good Sci Fi Series...

I think you really need to start looking away from sci-fi and in the direction of some other genre, experiment a bit as it seems all the greats you show a distaste to and as you are in a serious serious minority i dont think there is going to be much that tickles you taste buds TBH!

Yeh was really cheesy wasnt it lol reminded me of a red dwarf on steroids though if im hounest, and a giant dragon fly space ship.... dont get much more sci-fi than that haha

Earth: Final Conflict wasn't completely terrible.

I have started watching the sarah Connor chronicles, The Bionic woman and begrudgingly I've Started watching B5 seeing as it's so popular throughout the forums (I still don't get it and still think it's **** however beggers can't be choosers when they've run out of sci-fi and I'm gonna see it through to the end even if the boredom kills me.)

Then you wont like to hear its been given a second season.

Really? I thought it was cancelled. I thought it was scheduled for 12 episodes and binned at 9. I quite like it.

Bionic Woman was cancelled though? Don't know what its like.

Has Knight Rider been given a green light for the series? The pilot is actually really good although a certain person really should lay off the face lifts

BSG - it can trudge from time to time. I got bored half way though S3. I understand S4 is the last (intentioned) but its not complete due to writers strike.

Has anyone mentioend Fascape. I liked it personally. Its got a strangly Aussie feel that nearly everything from Aus seems to has (if you know what I mean)

It was once they killed off the main character. First couple of seasons are pretty decent.

I have all but two on dvd (Which hasn't been released yet). Only the last season was poor IMO.

millenium is by far my fav, very xfiles but done so well... Its by chris carter so thus the reason why its very xfiles

another vote for Alias here, cant recommend that show enough. 4400 is a great show too.

pc-modd · 12 Mar 2008 at 18:02

some interesting suggestions in here, ill have a look into some of them

How can anyone "Hate" BSG. :confused:

peetee · 15 Mar 2008 at 00:54

my ex hated it, i said if she really loved me then she would love it too, so i broke up with her, i think she was jealous.

I doubt it is an actual hatred of BSG per se, more a heavy disdain of the filler episodes, of which there are many.

try something further afield such as the Ghost In The Shell anime series.

Ghost In The Shell (animated movie)
Ghost In The Shell : Stand Alone Complex series 1 (animated series)
Ghost In The Shell 2 : Innocence (animated movie)
Shost In The Shell : Stand Alone Complex series 2 (animated series)
Ghost In The Shell : Stand Alone Complex - Solid State Society (animated movie)

The GITS 2 movie is by far the weakest of the lot in my eyes.

Speaking of cyberpunk, if you like to read and end up with time to spare, check out William Gibsons Sprawl Trilogy

I think the 4400 is a great show so would recommend that.
