Well BSG has been mentioned but here it is again.

BSG - worth it for Boomer, but a cracking show as well.

If you wanna stretch Sci-fi a bit I am a big fan of The Dead Zone.

New Doctor Who is great and I've heard Torchwood is good but haven't seen it myself.

Again a stretch but I find Smallville good if you can get past the cheesyness of some episodes/lines.

Going back a bit there's also B5 and Dark Angel.

The more a show is mentioned here the more it is liked so go with BSG for definite. If you like Firefly you'll like this.

Well I will mention "Medium". It is totally different. They keep the show fresh by having different twists to each episode. Not what you would expect from a pyschic TV show.

Plus, Mark "Badger" Sheppard keeps turning up (he was in it just this week, in fact). Speaking of, I'd better go watch that tape before I record over it.

the 4400 is really good. Not really very sci-fi but everyone should watch the Lone Gunman.

oh and Tripping the Rift, Lex and Dead like me.
Is it just me or do I have a thing for off-air T.V. Shows?

Hello Cybersnark:

And our good friend who played Niska also showed up in "Medium", in that episode.

Before you know it Gina Torres will show up on this program.

I would recommend:
1. Doctor Who - also check out the classic series now on DVDs with Tom Baker and Jon Pertwee as the doctor back in the 70s. I recommend "the ark in Space" and "the Claws of Axos" Although the new series has modern effects, the classic series is still the best.
2. Battlestar Gallactica - great show, although damn depressing. Can't there be a show where no one gets killed or cries?

No Copilot, you are not alone about off-air TV shows. Add me to that list. I am sure there are more people who suffer form it.

And good call about the "Lone Gunman". That is another show I am bitter about having a short run.

Just watched it. I thought that was him, but I wasn't sure.

Now I need to find a screencap of "Badger" and "Niska," face-to-face at last.
