It’s tough picking one.

But that’s why I’m asking. It’s easy to do a top 3, even easier to a top 5.

But when you have to choose a singular show? When you’re forced to pare it down? What sticks above the others for you?


Babylon 5 for me.

It’s got plenty of issues but it’s still my darling and despite all the behind-the-scenes BS it’s still the best long-form sci-fi story I’ve seen onscreen.


Edit: Screwed up the title. Bad Dalacos.

    Honorable mention to Pantheon too

    I quite liked season 1, still need to watch season 2.

    Similar vein to that one I’d recommend if you haven’t seen it, Terminator: Zero. I went in with low expectations but it was surprisingly good.

      Oh really? I gave up in like one of the first scenes where someone was dodging a minigun or something like that

        Light spoiler: there’s a scientist that has conversations with AI that I found entirely intriguing. Can’t even remember much of the action.
