Default OT: Contempory Best SciFi Series Ever

I know this has been done before, but please bare with me and cast your vote again. Thanks.

Edit: Babylon 5 is a Known Classic - It is already firmly entrenched in the Top Three. We just need to find the other two.

(Sorry I honestly had it on my list, but I had this damn song stuck in my head that I had to find the name to. Mission accomplished, see my other post, but in doing so I dropped the ball here. Please forgive me.)

Oh, I said Farscape. But I'd be hard pressed to say why -- I just really enjoyed it. I watched most of the others, and really liked them as well, but something makes me root for the surreal underdog.

Yeah... how could you forget some of the unarguably best sci-fi TV ever?

bab5 was good. but all that build up and then season 4.

That almost ruined it.

Still like it.

But could not vote for it due to that season and how they handled the ending of the story.

Why does good always have to win?

Perhaps it would have been better for the cycle to repeat again.


I voted for DS9. As I really enjoyed the characters and the story.

The best thing that came out of Babylon 5 IMHO was the little 3 book paperback series on the TechnoMages. Thats why I have techno-mage.com (dont bother going there, I havent dont anything with it)

If you like DS9, Spike TV is running them in order. Two episodes a day, 11AM - 1PM (check your local listings ) They just finished the Last season on thursday and started over with the two part pilot today. Don't know how long it will Last, but it's a good way to catch up on any that you missed.
