I never realy gave B-5 a chance. I've heard good things about Battlestar Galatica though. I really should give it a chance. There's a miniseries and it's in season 2, right?

I voted other, because my fav ATM is (the older, non crappy) Stargate.

You don't like Stargate with Ben Browder and Claudia Black? Aside from Daniel Jackson's new attitude this season, I like it so far. Though Farscape was another favorite of mine.

BG sucks IMHO. So does Atlantis.

Claudia Black might grow on me, and Browder is a good choice, but it's not the actors, it's the writing. The same character interaction and clever stories are gone, IMO, it's been a long downward spiral since mid season 7. They really should have ended the show after they defeated the replicators. I mean, the Auri seem like the Gou'ald except they have magical powers, which, IMO is LESS clever. Whoop-de-do.

I bet it would be a lot closer if Star Trek fans weren't conveniently divided between three choices for which series of ST they liked best 😛
 
Babylon 5 was a far, far better show - despite some terribly cliched acting at times.

Need I say anything else? 😉

I thought Vir was a far worse actor than Sinclair. Sinclair had the whole "I have no reason to live and I bloody well know it" brooding look that was perfect for his part.
 
Battlestar Galactica is awesome. I sort of had to force myself to watch the first 3 eps as it seems like you jump into the middle of a story. After that though I was hooked.

That's because it starts off with a 2 part movie.

You gotta add stargate to that poll, thats my fav sci-fi show by far. Of the others I really liked Bab 5, ST DS9, ST TNG, and am currently enjoying watching through enterprise with my wife.

Stargate SG1/Atlantis FTW!!!!!!!!!!!

/Thread
 
B5 > Andromeda > old BG > new BG > all ST (DS9 had some good stuff, though).

OTOH, I'm partial to actual character development, and integration of various plots (which B5 and Andromeda had in spades). The new BG does a decent job, but I hate the editing and effects...and the fact that they use actual guns, not dreaking blasters!

B5 kicks *ss over TNG
 
i dont know i really liked DS9.

I did enjoy Lexx, as well as Farscape and Firefly even. Stargate never did it for me.


My favorite is Farscape.
