My all time favorite is Babylon 5. :biggrin

I did like the original Star Trek and two of its spinoffs, TNG and Voyager as well.

I'm young enough to remember all but one of those shows, so this was a wonderful trip down Memory Lane. Among my favorites to make the list: The Thunderbirds (I loved this show as a child, and it was responsible for me becoming a scifi fan), The Avengers (should have been ranked higher though!) and V - The Mini-Series.

I couldn't believe that neither Star Trek: DS9 nor Farscape made the list, especially since Lost in Space and the incredibly campy Batman did! Although DS9 was slow in getting going, the last three seasons were as good as scifi gets. Watch it on Spike TV if you get the chance. And Farscape was a hoot, with a knockout of a series wrap-up.

I saw the original airing of the very first Star Trek: The Original episode, and was thrilled to see it is Number 1. While almost the entire third season could be thrown in the trash, and the special effects were pathetic by today's standards, there are episodes in the first two seasons that are shining examples of great scifi - "Balance of Terror", "A Taste of Armageddon", "Journey to Babel" and, of course, "The City of the Edge of Forever".

I miss good SCifi shows. The best one today is the new BSG.
