Stargate is probably the best science fiction series after Firefly. Nice visual effects too.:**

Hahaah Firefly was nice show. Cowboys, but in space! :) It didn’t had chance between Startrek, Stargate and Farscape showing at that time.

Btw, I gave Dollhouse a try… and it’s NO GO! NOOOO GOOOO!!! Funny storyline tough.

Next in line is Fringe.

Have you watched Firefly (and after it – Serenity)?
Great SF show, Jewel Staite is pretty cute in it :)

There were 14 or 15 episodes in S01 and then they shut it :(

by the way… you can look at scifi.dead-donkey.com which indexes only sci-fi series / movies for some more examples if you need ideas what to watch.

Zyt, I know that you are on a vacation and that you have all the time in world to watch ALL series out there. Stop rubbing it in. :)

I’ll give Dollhouse and Fringe a shoot tonight! Thanks bros!

Dollhouse has potential if you manage to live thru the first 6-7 episodes without giving up, cause that’s when the plot finally gets interesting.

Eureka was a nice brain-relaxant, but is probably gone for good :/

Fringe is good, as someone mentioned already, but it’s not so much SF as I’d like it to be :)

As far as SF goes, a new pilot aired a few days ago: Caprica http://tinyurl.com/yj5e5k – it has potential, if they dont screw it up…

Some other shows, in no particular order, that I currently watch (or have watched until they went on hiatus): House, Bones, How I Met Your Mother, Breaking Bad, The Big Bang Theory, Flashpoint, The Unit, Scrubs, Rescue Me, In Treatment, 30 Rock, Trust Me, Law And Order UK, The Mentalist, Lie To Me, Kings, The Beast, Cold Case, The Line, Flight Of The Conchords, United States Of Tara

I forgot to mention Eureka, which had potential, but they screwed the plot in the middle of season 1. I think Eureka is canceled too.

Hmm.. I haven’t seen Dollhouse or Fringe.

Sarah Connor Chronicles is in line with Smallville and Dr. Who. Teen stuf. :)

Lost and Prison Break have the same never ending concept – they could film 100 seasons, and nothing would happen. Plus they are not sci-fi. John Doe was more interesting than Lost, but John Doe got canceled too.

Dollhouse, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (but their future is also questionable), Fringe, Lost — there are the ones I can think of at this moment.
