Good sci fi series to watch?

[Du1point8]

Cant find anything on search...

So need recommendations...

Currently going through Warehouse 13 which is like an x files style show and quite good.

I need to catch up on fringe at some point.

But what else?

BSG done
B5 done
Stargate franchise done
Terra nova done
Falling skies done

need more

Firefly!

Last week I watched Jericho, since I had little else to do - it was OK.

Forgot about that one.

Not seen it myself, but the new V is supposed to be quite good.

[stew-S160]

Space:Above and Beyond.

[Methuselah]

Lexx

[TheHeretic]

Farscape

[clonmult]

A mildly rare one (and possibly difficult to find)

Total Recall 2070. A bazillion times better than the Arnold film, and overall a very, very good series. And again, shame it didn't continue past the first series.

Oh no, the new 'V' is arse, the completely missed the entire point of the original and it was all too woolly.

Dodgy special effects, naff idea's. Not a patch on the original.

So, OP, if you can halde '80's SFX, with ok'ish acting, but want something that is an excellent story, try the original V.

was the gene rodenbury series that was done after his death any good?

Andromeda any good? when I have seen it there was no story line and just like star trek jumping from one episode (do something) to another and unless its got 2 parts, never the twain shall meet.

I got that following reviews on here, and I stopped watching after about 5 episodes, I found it very slow and boring. (Can't even remember the name of it now).

I struggle because so much good stuff is binned before it's finished, they got the investment to start it, so bloody finish it!!

I really enjoyed Jericho and it was just getting interesting when they canned it. Same with dDrk Skies.

Also (as not mentioned by op)

Star Trek in all it guises (TOS, TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT).

Yes. It's tremendously important in the development of the genre when compared to Star Trek and TNG, which were almost all standalone "monster / baddie of the week" episodes and was the foundation for what JMS did on a much grander scale with B5. Of course the budget that the BBC could throw at scifi in 1977 was vanishingly small and it shows.

I would suggest 'Fringe' then.

[clonmult]

Another offbeat suggestion.

The Lost Room.

Apparently a precursor to Warehouse 13, in that it uses some vaguely similar concepts. Not a long running series, just 6 episodes iirc. Haven't had a chance to sit down and watch it yet, but it does look interesting.
