Best SCI-FI tv shows

[Jenae LaTorque]

Threnn mentioned The Prisoner. That show was so far out for it's time. I remember when it aired, I never missed it. Didn't matter what was going on, I was there in front of the old boob tube when them giant balls went rolling across the beach. That was the era of all the detective and cop shows; Mannix, Cannon, Hawaii 5-O, Ironsides, etc. It was a nice change to watch The Prisoner. I bought the set on DVD when I got a chance.

Surprised no one has mentioned this.... I watch Ghost Hunters and Ghost Hunters International whenever it is on and am an avid ghost hunter and paranormal investigator myself. Besides that I watch the Twilight Zone whenever it is on. I prefer the original old episodes rather than the new stuff.

I really liked the show Sliders . But when Jerry O'Connell left the show it went downhill. I still can't figure out the explanation the writers came up w/ ... Quinn fused w/ an alternate version of himself that looks nothing like him ... LAME. Seasons 1-3 good , 4 was ok beyond that meh.

Jenae and all: there is a remake of The Prisoner coming in November, 2009 in the form of a six episode mini-series on AMC (link below) with Sir Ian McKellen playing Number Two. And, at one time, there was a movie project active with Christopher Nolan directing ("just about to cum!"), but unfortunately he dropped out of the project and I don't know where it stands now ("oh shit- blue balls...")

As Jenae said, this show was waaaaay ahead of its time when it was first shown on TV in the 1960s. A truly remarkable series.

1. Dr. Who (newer stuff but starting to watch the older versions)
2. Eureka
3. Twilight Zone
4. Star Trek (The original series)
5. Enterprise
6. Earth 2 (kinda campy 90's show was only on for one season I believe.)
7. Torchwood
8. Primeval (I watch a lot of BBC)
9. Stargate (all of them)
10. (Last but definitely not least) New BSG
