Firefly wins this century - EASY !
Its the best show out there
Last century it could be a toss up between the original Star Trek, Outer Limits and Babylon-5 (a cult, campy series with an amazing story arc and complicated rich characters )

Is that the orginal series by Larson or the re-imagined one from Eick and Moore ?
I don't remember the old series but I know it was too cheesy and childish but it had a few good story arcs and at least it was original
The un-original reimagined one had a few good episodes, I really like the first season but it jumped the shark pretty quick, the cylons never really had a plan and it became a show only for rabid fanboys, women who watch soaps and online shippers. I won't even get into the crappy ass shaky camera action used to try to add dark and gritty atmosphere

Firefly
The Office
For my money, those may be the two best shows EVER.

Firefly
Lost
Battlestar Galactica (first 1-1/2 seasons at least)
Wonderfalls
Veronica Mars
At the current time, the best show is Pushing Daisies, but being so new (and only nine episodes in) it's too soon to tell where it will fit on the list.

ADDED: While maybe not 'best', I love Heroes & the 21st Century eps of Buffy were grand!

Because no one's mentioned them yet, HEROES and SIX FEET UNDER. The former takes the LOST format and expands and improves upon it to be more entertaining than LOST, I feel. And the latter I love for personal reasons, as well as it being the best acted, written and directed series on HBO you could possibly imagine. Has more emotiona nad spirituality in one minute than most shows ever.
