"Best Sci-Fi TV Shows of all Time" Topic

"Science fiction is often celebrated as a forward-thinking genre that promotes peace among all life forms. But deciding which sci-fi TV series is the best? That debate could start an intergalactic war.

To determine which series is the supreme ruler of the sci-fi genre, we took into consideration Tomatometer data culled from critics' reviews, plus a number of reputable "best of" lists, and sprinkled the effort with some editorial discretion, asking ourselves which shows have stood the test of time, inspired spin-offs and copycats, and even made their influence known on the big screen.

Some usual suspects naturally came out on top: Doctor Who, Fringe, Firefly, Orphan Black, and creator Ronald D. Moore's mid-2000s re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica received high marks across the board — not surprising, since they all also have high Tomatometer scores, as do relative newcomers like Westworld, The Expanse, and Black Mirror…"

Hmm, a pretty poor list overall with BSG as #1. No UFO either.

Yes, why was UFO omitted? And only Astro Boy and Cowboy Bebop for anime TV series? No Space Battleship Yamato, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, or Ergo Proxy, etc.? I suppose those animated series were only shown on Japanese TV so don't count.

Lost #6 I think not!
Star Trek is #1 in my book.

Sorry, the source was Rotten Tomatoes which is owned by Fandango which is a subsidiary of the Disney corp, so it's opinions are completely REJECTED.

I know Babylon 5 was on the list but not a single Gundam series or Legend of the Galactic Heroes, not even Starblazers.

This is why I generally reject all opinions that are not my own.

UFO is one of my all-time favorites.

I've heard of some of the above, but never Legend of the Galactic Heroes. I thought that was only a miniatures rules set, e.g. "Galactic Heroes".

Bias ruins the list.

Fake news.

Glup!….
