I'd agree with you there, series one was great. I could never understand why originally it was shown at 2am on ITV.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series

Sliders was a big favourite of mine although the last couple of series really lost the plot and got a bit stupid.

Dark Skies was also great but sadly got cut very short, I still have all the epsiodes on my external HDD and watch every so often.

All the Star Trek and Stargate series as well as Babylon 5.

In fact I am such a big Sci-Fi geek that I love most of the series that has been mentioned al ready.

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series

Most of the ones on the list, plus a bunch mentioned in the thread.

Hard to name an overall favorite, but if pushed Id probably say Babylon 5.
