Re: Best Scifi Series ever, canceled! (OT)
I just watched a season one episode of ST:TNG called The Neutral Zone where they rescue some crionically frozen folks from the 20th Century. Picard strongly emphasizes how people in the 24th century don't pursue material possessions anymore.
Bagh!! I'm a big fan of Star Trek. But this philosophy that everyone is going to spend all their time in the future trying to better themselves is just a bit too much to stomach.
I really like Babylon 5. It seems a much more realistic look at the future. Everything is pretty much the same as it is now but the technology is a little improved.
I think B5 should rate as the best sci-fi show simply because of the consistent plot throughout the entire series.
Farscape? Isn't that muppets in space?
The Prisoner was an interesting show. I think it might be interesting to see a modern Version of that.
