Well Done! ;)
(What afatquite obese feast of SciFi treats!) :alien:
Battlestar Galactica (2004) is one of the best that I can remember seeing in quite some time.
thanks for the total film link
Sunshine is a great movie
and Battlestar Galactica is a must-watch. great binge watching for a month
I'll just drop some TV series into the bucket. There are a lot of amazing scifi shows out there, but you have to be willing to look to the past.
Dollhouse
Firefly
Star Trek: TOS and TNG
Stargate Atlantis
The Lost Room
The Outer Limits
The Twilight Zone
The X-files
Cheers! That should come in handy :)
If you are that huge you really need to go for a walk and/or a swim rather than watching more sci-fi, fatty......Quote:

But it does lookk kind of out of place on a list with shows like Twilight Zone, X-files and Star Trek. But hey I'm not saying ya gotta like all 8 shows that I'm putting down heh. Different strokes.
Eliza Dushku!
Fringe was also a good TV series.
Helix is a pretty good new show. It's got some decent horror/scifi themes.
The tomorrow people is awsome. too bad it looks like it will be cancelled
I'd have to agree! With the current episode added to the previous I have, it will make a decent mini-marathon for tonight! :)Quote:

The Tomorrow People is indeed an awesome show and it seems that the story line is picking up. I'm hoping it's not too late. One show that needs to do better is Almost Human. I love that show.
Battlestar Galactica rulez
The ultimate scifi series

Almost Human turned out to be a pretty cool show despite its lower ratings. It reminded me a bit of both Blade Runner and Dredd. Worth a look. :)

I just finished catching up on Warehouse 13. Didn't think I'd like it, considering it's a SyFy series, but it surprised me. It's actually pretty good. Sort of arip offcross between Fringe and The X Files. Maybe not quite as good as those two, but it has it's merits. Definitely not boring & worth a watch.
Fantastic new series called True Detective with Matthew McConoughy should be on your list
The original The Day The Earth Stood Still is always a good choice
Haven has its moments.
Continuum is worth a look too.
for all it's issues.. defiance is okay.
Helix -
A cross between Outbreak meets Highlander (as The Immortals Incorporated)
with a little Walking Dead thrown in.
I'm lovin' it.
Firefly, original Star Trek series and strangely I used to like the original v series but a recent watch reveals how outdated it seems now
Sitting on the fence about "Bitten"...
I do wish that someone would remaster and re-release "Babylon 5" on BluRay.
Black Mirror is worth a look. I thought all of the episodes were great except maybe the Waldo Monent.

Cant Go wrong in My book
I guess my age is showing here
The X-Files, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica and Dollhouse have been my faves. A newer series I've been into is Orphan Black though its second season hasn't been as good as the first one.
I think one TV series that gets overlooked a lot is 'Dead Set' .
It's a Zombie series, not SciFi per se, though .
