Most Scifi fans I have ran into can pretty quickly rank the four stars –BattleSTAR Galactica, STAR Trek, STARgate, and STAR wars, but what lesser-known or less-prestigious shows hold a special place in your heart?

No, Firefly doesn’t count as lesser-known.

    Definitely Farscape. A very weird but very good show. Ben Browder did a great job playing the lead role and it’s a shame he hasn’t done anything like it since.

      He did though, he was on Stargate until 2007! Also, he’s 60 now, so I doubt he’s taking on a lead role in a sci-fi as his same goofy self again.

      Dagnabbit, never heard of it, but it’s free on Plex and highly rated on IMDB. Starting it right now

        You’re in for a great time! I know people say this about every show, but the start of season 1 can be hit-or-miss. Things really pick up near the end of the season so it’s worth sticking until then.

        Very glad I got to introduce someone to this show though, I hope you have fun with it.
