SCI-FI SERIES'
Posts
"sfdebris" on YouTube pretty much represents most of my opinions on Voyager (and first/second-season Enterprise) episodes quite well. IMO both of those series had quite a lot of potential, but their executive producers' ideas about certain aspects of them really drove their overall quality down, and wasted it. At least in the case of Enterprise, it somehow managed to regain its spark at the end, before the suits finally decided cancel it.
DS9 was really good, yes, but I can't get over the fact that Paramount basically did steal their ideas from Babylon 5. (Originally, Joe Michael Straczynski pitched his idea as a separate series (B5) to Paramount before DS9 was conceived - Paramount then decided to "adapt" his ideas into a new Star Trek series, and then release it one year before B5's pilot.) I still enjoyed watching DS9 through most of its seasons, but that kind of executive thievery always opens a black hole of hatred in my heart, especially since I may have to deal with something like that in my future.
For the OP: Battlestar Galactica is a mostly good series, but I would recommend that you be careful as you reach the end of it... Just, be careful. :)
If you like to watch anime, two really good sci-fi series that you could see are Cowboy Bebop and Planetes. You could also watch the entire Macross saga if you wished, but that is a lot of material to cover. (And if you do, be wary of Macross 7... It has a rather interesting way of dealing with its villains.)

Blake's Seven
THIS THIS ETERNALLY THIS
also, it's not a show, but you should check out the old tv movie The Questor Tapes. classic scifi at its (low budget) finest. written by Gene Roddenberry too!
So back from Scotland, and it seems I've got enough shows to be watching after Farscape so thanks guys. I'll probably start on either Battlestar Galactica (That's 4 seasons, correct?) or Stargate: SG1 (Lotsa seasons) once I'm finished.
And thanks for reminding me of Blakes Seven too, though how I could forget it when I found out about it from watching Have I Got News For You when Brian Blessed was hosting.

Just finished Atlantis. It was alright, seemed like they wanted to do more with it, before it was canceled. I'll wait till Universe finishes before watching. In the meantime, it's on to Tripping the Rift.
