Yes, pretentious of course, but I never missed either Babylon 5 or either Battlestar Galactica.
Hey, its slim pickings out here.

I agree with one and two, but then you lost me with three and four. Especially Alien Nation, loved it myself!
The retelling Of Battlestar Galactica should be on the list as well as Buck Rogers and any of the Stargate series! IMHO of course.

Everything in the Star Trek franchise since 1986. Except for the 2009 movie.

I Liked Babylon 5, darn it
To: EveningStar
One more factoid about Babylon 5 - it had a series consultant and occasional guest star by the name of Mr. Harlan Ellison. Care to name a more pretentious sci-fi writer alive today?

I remember one on Saturday mornings back in the 70s called Ark II. The premise seemed to be that if we don't stop polluting, civilization will collapse and everything will become as dry and dusty as the Hollywood back lots are. I was a little kid back then and even I though it was heavy handed.

After watching a couple episodes I started calling it “Babble-on 5” myself. ;-)

I liked Alien Nation and B5 very much. Gary Graham of AN posts on Big Hollywood once in a great while.

“any of the Stargate series”
Kartographer,
Are you watching SGU? I am but seem to be having a hard time getting in to it. It’s kind of like the new BSG was for me. Hard to get in to at first.

Buffy is a great, funny show! A little too liberal but very
well written.

B5 was great until the end of season 4... then it limped (due to studios messing with project budgets)

All the live action CBS Saturday morning lineup was like that. Ark II, Shazam!, Isis, and Space Academy.
Dreadful.
To: EveningStar
#1 on your list should be The West Wing
