What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I have several series which l am enjoying at the moment and those would be Babylon 5 and Star Trek Deep Space Nine and of the older series which l love are Land Of The Giants and Planet Of The Apes and several others as well.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Babylon 5 is my all time favorite ,i have them all on my NAS drive and can quite happily watch the whole series over and over again :D

closely followed by SGI/Atlantis (universe was the sorriest piece of telly ever)

Andromeda wasn't too bad either

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yes l just bought the Babylon 5 series for £55 on Amazon and to me thats a bargain.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Sapphire and Steel. It scared the willies out of me as a kid and I still love it.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yes it had David McCallum and Joanna Lumley starring in it.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Earth 2
The War of the Worlds (season 1 - season 2 was crap)
Something is Out There

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I used to really like the X Files and also The 4400 but it got axed.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

yes it was ,i did start to collect the sg1 dvd's through a mag subscription untill i realised it would cost about £200 :D

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yes l just looked on Amazon and it is £150 for the full set which is a lot of money.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Dross like Andromeda in that list, yet no Firefly? Atlantis & Universe, yet no SG-1? :confused:

BSG... Original, or re-imagining?

For me... nuBSG, B5, SG-1, Firefly, and The X Files. I love Doctor Who (old & new), but it's not at the top of my list. The first season of Heroes was excellent, the rest were... not.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

SG-1 should be on the list! ;)

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

No Farscape either.

Falling Skies is included and that hasn't even aired a full season yet and Heroes makes the list over The 4400? It's absurd

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I have them all on DVD anyway. :D

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Certainly should. It spawned Atlantis and Universe (which are in the poll even though their parent isn't), and once held the record for longest consecutive running science fiction TV series (until it was recently beaten by Superman's Creek :( ).

I was tempted to edit the poll to add it, but there's no space left.


Yup...

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

"Today, they're taking over our bodies!"

I'd agree with you there, series one was great. I could never understand why originally it was shown at 2am on ITV.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Smallville equaled SG-1, it didn't beat it

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

'Transuranic Heavy Elements cannot be used where there is life' And yet Sapphire and Steel aren't elements, they're compounds...

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Same number of seasons, but more episodes, I thought?

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Babylon 5 is my favourite, followed closely by Firefly.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yeah, but it's just so damned good I let that one pass. :D

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

UFO
Space 1999
Space -Above and Beyond
The Highwayman
Blakes 7

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

My favourites (of late)

nuBSG
Firefly
Dollhouse
SG:U
Heroes
Day Break

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Sliders was a big favourite of mine although the last couple of series really lost the plot and got a bit stupid.

Dark Skies was also great but sadly got cut very short, I still have all the epsiodes on my external HDD and watch every so often.

All the Star Trek and Stargate series as well as Babylon 5.

In fact I am such a big Sci-Fi geek that I love most of the series that has been mentioned al ready.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

So so hard pretty much any sci-fi series,

Space Above and Beyond ( i think there is still little piece of me holding out for a return :cry: :erm:)
Star Trek
Babylon 5
SG-1
X-files
And so many good shows cancelled by stupid American tv executives :mad:
Firefly, 4400 etc

JJ

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yes l am sorry for that.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Most of the ones on the list, plus a bunch mentioned in the thread.

Hard to name an overall favorite, but if pushed Id probably say Babylon 5.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

l cannot please everyone and as the saying goes you are damned if you do and damned if you don't.:)

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

No SG-1

NO FRINGE?!?

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Voted,

I loved Babylon 5 and Dark Skies

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I remember The Highwayman! Sam "Flash Gordon" Jones as some sort of crime-fighting Fed with a truck that had a helicopter cab & could turn invisible :D

Dark Skies is awesome. I had a re-watch of that a while ago. Shame it ended like it did.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

My favourite at the moment is FRINGE. I'd love to see someone remake UFO though.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yeah, there was one series and it was shown, when I saw it, dead late at night on Ch4in the late 80's early 90's.

There loads I keep remembering.

The Fantastic Journey (or Voyage) starring Roddy MacDowell

Otherworld (I think) very similar to the Fantastic Journey, used to be on a Sat Morning, about a family on another world searching for their daughter having to follow oblisks, each day find themselves in a different town.

Automan computer generated superhero, with a computer generated lamborghini, well with blue neon strip lights.

Logans Run the TV series of the film, It was rerun not so long ago on one of the channels.

Battlestar Galactica 1980 Adama has a beard, did Boomer replace Tigh?, two wooden, as wooden could be, leads in Troy and Dillon and the Milky Bar kid as some super brain

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Just remembered a wee series from the 90s called The Last Train. It was great, although not seen it in a while.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I watched that again last week :)

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Chocky :D

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Chocky was good. I read some of the books as well.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I remember Time Express starring Vincent Price, where people went back in time to relive important moments in their life.

A few more.

The invisible man starring David Macallum

Gemini Man Invisible man clone that controls his invisibility via his watch.

A man Called Sloane a james bond rip off. partnered by a guy with a metal hand.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Sounds like "Being Erica".

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

The do tend to repeat things don't they.. Alpha's reminds me a bit of The Champions

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

What do people think of Torchwood as l have never watched this one much because l am always watching other Sci- Fi series.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Lexx is missing from the list, total weirdness.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Why is the ORIGINAL Stargate missing?That was the best one.

---------- Post added at 14:26 ---------- Previous post was at 14:19 ----------

However the best series of all has to be Babylon 5.It had everything a SF series requires.
Science,interesting humans and aliens,a sweeping backstory,quests,mystery,war,treachery,telepaths(a lways need those),a love story and some truly beautiful ships and cities and some very stylish clothing.The only SF series that had the latter was SG9 with the Furengi clothing.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

DS9?

A bit of trivia about that.

Apparently the fact that the set and costume design for DS9 was so colourful was a reaction to the perception that the TNG set design was quite muted, and almost monochrome.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Well the real trouble with ST in general was the boring situation of so many spandex Federation uniforms.Yes they were colourful but they were truly terrible as far as style went.The costumes always looked so cheap.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

I think the best character in B5 had to be G'Kar - played by the late great Andreas Katsulas, he evolved so much as a character.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
 

Yes he was a superb character and yes it is sad he is no more with us.

Yes l agree with that.
