Best TV Sci-Fi Series Ever

I liked my Star Trek and I loved Quantum Leap. I remember watching Lost in Space but not enough to tell you if I liked it XD

Which Star Trek series, there's been quite a few over the years? I didn't think much of Quantum Leap, it just didn't capture my imagination.

Hmmm I never finished Voyager or the last series attempt but that was more to do with being in a country that didnt show it.What can I say? Im a huge nerd and up until moving to Spain I had seen every single episode from the Next Generations and goodness knows how many from the Original series.

I think everyone has seen all the episodes of the original Star Trek, they've been repeated on TV countless times. I wish they'd repeat the mid 70's Planet of the Apes TV series, l remember that being really good with these gorillas on horseback with black leather jackets and M16 assault rifles hunting humans.

I haven't.

Original Star trek obviously and some TNG was good too. Quantum leap was great, very different from the usual stuff. I liked The twilight zone episodes that I managed to see. Knight Rider was a must see though in my youth. I dreamed of being able to talk to my car.

Prefered the Hulk to Knight RIder myself but those were iconic! Oh and The A-Team of course

Ah well if I was planning my favourites from the list.. and the list included the A-Team... well then the plan would really *lights cigar* come together... and um.. I'd love it.. err. I messed that up didn't I.

I pity myself... fool!

Hahahahaha, not really sci-fi but seeing how they made tanks out of a plank of wood and some silly putty it kinda was!

I used to love all those but now they all seem so sexist and cheesy.

If you're adding the A-Team to the list you might as well add Baywatch, some of those female lifeguards looked like they came from another world. Their racks definately were the result of science as they defied gravity when they ran.

Jesus, I shouldn't be viewing images like that in school...

Lol, what's wrong with that image, it's just an actress in a lifeguards swimmsuit posing with a surf board. What makes it different from this one, Mr T from the A-Team is actually topless in this photo.

Hahahaha, Dan's going to get in to trouble.

Tried watching the A-team today and I just couldnt sit through it, script was terrible XD
Baywatch was terrible too, I mean really someone gets eaten by a shark and then comes back a few weeks later?

OK OK we are going too far with Baywatch; and probably the A-Team. But if we are going to be a little loose on the definition of Sci-fi then I have to add a few more to the list.

Worth a mention is StreetHawk. A fairly dodgy clone of knight rider with a high tech, super fast, gun toting motorcycle. Didn't get much airtime in the UK but I remember liking it when it was out.

And then the 2 contenders for the top helo spot. Blue Thunder was a cool film but average TV series. But probably ruling the airwaves for many was the one and only AIRWOLF. Awesome intro music.

Spoiler:

We're really scrapping the bottom of the bucket now, might as well add my personal favourite into the mix... Magnum P.I. The star of that show was his Ferrari 308 GTS, it looks dated now but in the early 80's that was the car every boy dreamed of owning.

Ok...what about Babylon 5?

I couldn't get into Babylon 5, too many things happening at once. If you went into the kitchen to make a cup of tea and came back five minutes later you had no chance of picking up the storyline. I think Rich has the whole set, I seem to recall seeing it in his video collection. Who remembers 'Heroes'? That series started good before going downhill.

It's cold outside.... there no kind of atmosphere...
We are all SmegHeads for forgetting Red Dwarf!

Everybody's dead Dave!

I tried Babylon 5, and there was just something off about it. Maybe I was comparing it too harshly to other Sci-Fi shows that were so much better.

We didn't forget it, it's just too rubbish to make the list, same can be said for that other terrible UK show that was out around the same time...Blakes 7.
