Come on, name one non-Star Trek series that went to a successfull, non-network-forced conclusion.

This rant brought to you by me getting interested in a cartoon, only to find out that it only ran for one season.
I don't know about this network stuff, but Voyager was made to a planned finish, right?
Voyager was Star Trek and doesn't count. It had a big name behind it.

A live action movie based on any SE IV stories would be very difficult to swing, I think. But the Othaglot & Cane story might make a decent animated feature. And it could be done by a fairly small studio these days with computer assisted animation.

Not having watched much of Farscape or any of the shows on Sci-Fi, I'd say B5 is probably the most successful non-Star Trek sci-fi series around. I'm not talking about the spin-offs, but just the 5 year show. And if you're talking ancient history, Dr. Who ran 27 years.

Well they do have another B5 movie in the works or so I have read. Another Ranger one from the looks of it.

Sci-Fi Shows that should have Continued:

Farscape
Legend of the Rangers
Crusader ** (Damn good show)
Earth and Beyond
Battle Star Galatica

Babylon 5. It was meant for 5 years.

Ah, the wonders of redundant information.
