All the Stargates are amazing Stargate forever. Stargate should of been number one not star teck
Prepare for a snit storm! Everyone's going to disagree with these rankings.
Stargate should rank higher and DW ought to be no1 but I'm glad TNG gets the regonition it deserves!
"Battlestar Galactica, a remake done right" Goddamn, I wanted to puke my guts out when I heard that. Fuck Terminator Galactica! If you are going to change the premise and the gender and races of major characters, then write your own fucking show!
What the fuck?? The best sci-fi TV series ever, Babylon 5, only gets an honorable mention?
For me the best of all time sci fiction TV series currently are: Star Trek TOS, Star Trek TNG, SPACE 1999, Babylon 5.
who came here after watching stranger things?
STARGATE!!!
My List:
10. Stargate SG-1
9. Babylon-5
8. The X-Files
7. Star Trek Enterprise
6. Star Trek Deep Space Nine
5. Star Trek Voyager
4. Star Trek The Next Generation
3. The Twilight Zone
2. Star Trek The Original Series
1. Doctor Who
DS9 not Nr.1? Not even in the Top 10? Not even a honorable mention? Screw you, guys, I´m going home…
Why is it there are no decent sci fi tv shows since star trek & stargate ended? It's such a shame. Star trek discovery is a joke & The Expanse is dull as biscuits.
Babylon 5 is better than most on that list
The Best of Both Worlds, Chain of Command, The Inner Light, All Good Things. You made the right choice with TNG at #1.
1. YEAH, IT IS!!!
All your honorable mentions …. face it you really need a second installment.
half of this isn't even science fiction!
setting does not equal genre
Just because there is some techno babble to explain your mcguffin, or the setting is space does no where near make it Sceince Fiction.
Stargate and Firefly are both one of my favourite shows, but they are not ScFi.
Who should be No 1, and Blake's 7 and the outer limits should be included.
Farscape and Babylon 5 deserve to be more than honorable mentions imo. The former was so weird and original, you can't help but sit back and enjoy the ride, and the latter is one of the best TV shows I've ever seen. All five seasons of B5 were planned from the very beginning and it shows. Also, I have a feeling The Expanse will deserve to be on this list once it's finished its run.
Westworld
why the hell is babylon 5 only a mention? i would have voted them for number one folowwed by battlestar galactica. these two are by far the best shows in TV history
St deep space. Nine and Voyager and Earth. final Conflict too
I give up on the integrity of the list when they introduced “stargaze sg 1” as being “based on a mediocre movie…”…really, “mediocre”??? That was far and away the best theatrical sci fi movie of the past thirty years. At least it had a great cast and an original and interesting script, which is more than can be said for any Star Wars or Star Trek movie or, for that matter, any dumb tv show like Doctor Who or crap like that!
Stargate
1, Babylon 5
2, Stargate
3, Stargate Atlantis
4, Star Trek Voyager
Why exclude Blake's 7?
It was probably THE science fiction show that made it past the iron curtain.
falling skies is not even in the list i'm dissapointed
where's DUNE??
1) TNG
2) SG-1
3) Firefly
SLIDERS
This list should only be Star Trek and Doctor Who
I'm really glad to see Quantum Leap getting love here and Stargate was not a mediocre movie.
none of these seem interesting, way too old.
Me: My favourite TV show STAR WARS.
Friend: Dude thats not a show.
Me: Hmmm still STAR WARS.
Firefly? Doesn't ring a bell, but it looks exactly as the movie "Serenity".
