Sci-Fi Universe for You?

Definitely 23rd-century Star Trek. In the 24th century of Trek TNG, I’d be bored to death with all the talk-talk-talking and political correctness. But in the TOS era, I can see myself going into business on Regulus or in the Orion colonies. Dealing in green animal women -- YESSS!!
 
The Babylon 5 universe. I'd have access to advanced technology and I could travel to other planets, but the world wouldn't be too perfect like in Trek. While BSG is my favorite sci-fi series, I would never want to live in that universe because of all the suffering.

On second thought, maybe I'd choose the Stargate universe instead. I'd love to become a host to a Tok'ra.

Perhaps the Perry Rhodan universe - over 3.000 years of rich interstellar and intergalactic history to look back on.

But the 24th century in the Trekverse is a very good choice too.
 
^In The Culture you wear whatever you feel like wearing.

The Trekverse. I'd love to live in an utopia. :)
The Culture is even more utopian than the Federation.

And since The Culture visited Earth back in the late nineteen-seventies and left a shitload of monitoring devices here it is more likely they come back to contact us than us having to suffer a nuclear war and waiting for the pointy-ears to stumble upon us...


:p
 
^Actually, whenever Banks describes the wardrobe choices of Culture citizens it invariably sounds a lot lighter and more loose-fitting than a jumpsuit -"pantaloons" being an often used item...
 
I'd want to be in the Stargate universe myself. Going through the Stargate type of person winding up the To'kra
 
I'm a little relieved that nobody mentioned the classic Planet of the Apes, underground with the mutants worshipping the bomb.
