Yeah, it is a pretty rare occurence. Now, there is no telling whether we would agree on the answer to what the best sci-fi show is.

, that or Mystery Science Theater 3000.

MST 3K is a great comedy show, sure. LEXX is trash tv, not technically classifiable as Sci-Fi.

Everyone who has ever posted on this form about the best SciFi show is wrong.

(except me) It's the new Outer Limits.

It is a toss betwen Bab5 and Red Dwarf, IMO.
ST:TOS is brilliant too but I don't care for sequels

Outer Limits is awesome. But since it isn't about a consistent cast of characters, I think it should be put in its own class--e.g. anthology? So, you would compare Outer Limits to Twilight Zone, etc. Of course, that is just one way of thinking about it.

I like Babylon 5 the best. It seems pretty rare to have five? years of episodes all internally consistent and all advancing one plot. I still can't imagine how JMS pulled it off.

Does X-files count as Sci-Fi? I don't really like personally but I'm just making suggestions.

This makes me want to see more B5, does it come on Sci Di network any more or did they get rid of it?

EDIT: I just remembered, if Cowboy Bebop counts it is definitely in the top 5(might not count cause it's Anime, but it still kicks ***).
