Sci Fi series reccommendations

[DigificWriter]

Hi everybody. I'm looking for something to do to occupy my free time, and am thinking about trying to find a new Sci-Fi/Fantasy TV show to watch. However, I'm not sure what to watch, and was looking for recommendations. To help everyone out, here's a list of the things that I've already seen:
Babylon 5 (up through Season 4)
nuBSG
Firefly
Star Trek (all series)

Thanks in advance.

Farscape seems to be a huge omission on your list - it is definitely recommended!

(This coming from someone who sees B5, nuBSG, and Farscape as the holy trinity of recent sci-fi shows - just to give you an idea of what I like)

 

[DigificWriter]

I've thought about watching Farscape before, but had a very hard time finding all of the episodes (I'm strapped for cash, so my ability to watch things depends on whether or not I can find them online).

I've thought about watching Farscape before, but had a very hard time finding all of the episodes (I'm strapped for cash, so my ability to watch things depends on whether or not I can find them online).

Season one, at least, is available for free at Fancast.

I've just begun re-watching the series myself, but I was lucky enough to snatch up all the Starburst DVDs before they went out of print (although five of the sets are the dreaded double-sided discs, unfortunately).

Have you tried The X-Files? And I'll always put in a recommendation for the original Twilight Zone, which remains worth it decades later. I've heard okay reviews of that other science fiction anthology show, The Outer Limits, but I've only seen scattered episodes with limited enjoyability.

And Stargate may be too light or too inconsistent for your tastes, but there's certainly plenty of it out there (and for cheap) for you to find a reasonable sample.

Can't go wrong with Dead Like Me.

 

[roguephoenix]

new doctor who
red dwarf
smallville (not sure if you had to be a fan from the start)
farscape - like everyone has said. watch it!
stargate - if you like a bit of fluff.
kyle xy - if you like a bit of teen drama mixed in.
andromeda - though not many people liked this show, i rather enjoyed it.
avatar - i know it's a cartoon but it's so good i'm recommending it to everyone lol.
justice league & justice league unlimited - i can't believe this is done. >_<

Outer Limits. The Sixties' version is more consistent. But the new series has some goodies too. Both are anthology series, though. (Different story and actors each week.) If you don't like that, avoid.

 

[Deckard]

Supernatural - Great series about two brothers who hunt ghosts and demons. Great character development and the show is very successful at mixing standalone episodes with an interesting overarching mythology.

 

[Starkers]

Blakes 7

 

[Dorian Thompson]

Supernatural most definitely.

 

[sidious618]

Well, a lack of the X-Files is never good so get on that. Carnivale and Supernatural, too, if you're looking for something different.

 

[amdmiami]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer-Don't let the name deceive you, it's one of the best shows ever created. Watch it and join the cult

Angel- The spinoff of Buffy, but it's just as good and has many of the same characters

 

[DigificWriter]

I've also watched Buffy and ANGEL, but they're not really Sci-Fi (neither is Supernatural).

As for some of the other reccommendations:
I ran into trouble in tracking down full seasons of both Andromeda and SG-1 (I wasn't able to find anything beyond S2 of Andromeda, and I think S2 or 3 of SG-1). While we're on the subject of Stargate, though, is it possible to watch Stargate Atlantis (provided I can find full seasons of it online) without having to have watched SG-1?

The X-Files was never really something that ever piqued my interest.

Hadn't thought about checking out series like Kyle XY, nuWho, Blake's 7, Dead Like Me, or Avatar, so I'll see if I can't track them down.

I might also try again and see if I can't track down more episodes of SG-1, Andromeda, and Farscape.

Thanks for all of the reccommendations, and keep suggesting things, since I'm always on the lookout for things to watch.

Yeah, pretty much. The degree of crossover is fairly minimal.
