Give me your recent or ancient sci-fi shows that you like. I need them!

In no particular order

  • Battlestar Galactica

  • Farscape

  • MST3K

  • Travellers

  • Most Star Trek and Stargate

  • Dr Who

  • Electric Sheep

  • Twin Peaks

  • X-Files

I'll probably add to this as they occur to me

Agree. Also

  • Firefly — if you somehow haven't seen it yet
  • Babylon 5 — if you can stick with it past a very rough season 1, seasons 2-4 are very good
  • Stargate SG-1, and to a much lesser extent Atlantis

Ooh yeah all solid. Firefly obviously, Babylon 5 was a lot more enjoyable than I expected. And I did mention Stargate, but I'm only now kinda watching SG-1.

Farscape has been in my peripheral vision forever, does it hold up?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 hours ago

Farscape is excellent, but it's very trippy and the heavy use of Muppets may be offputting to some. And it's far from harder scifi like the Expanse.

Just watch it. It's great

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Oh yeah, it's great. I've been watching it lately.

I second Battlestar Galactica. I keep meaning to rewatch it. All of this has happened before, all of this will happen again.
