Thread: All the good si-fi's are going or gone.

As you can tell by the title I'm a huge si-fi fan. I just learned of the canncelation of Stargate Universe. Although they spent way to much time on character development it was a pretty good show.
Heroes was cannnceled. So no season5. I guess it was just getting to compicated for some.
Defying Gravity had the potential to be a really good show but was canceled after a single season(only aired 8 of 13 episodes in the US)
And well I'm at it I'll complain about a oldy but a goody FireFly the one season and the movie they did were great. Nothing is better than a si-fi western comedy (this is really a must see).

Things to look forward to is AMC's The Walking Dead, and Fringe.
I'm sure I'm missing some good ones but this is all I can think of at the moment.

Is there any other si-fi's that I should be watching?

Some good stuff on the BBC. The new Doctor Who and Torchwood (a Doctor Who spinoff) are both awesome shows.

Yeah I've seen a few episodes but I imagine I should get my hands on the first seasons and watch them in order.

I agree with you list of good shows. My question is this, when did fake wrestling become Syfi??

Well the newest Doctor Who iteration started in '05 -- it goes back way further and I remember seeing a few episodes when I was little, but the new series really has me (and my wife!) hooked. If you want to sample a great stand-alone episode, look for the one titled Blink.

Did you watch the new Battlestar Galactica? Another good reboot but that ended a few years ago. There was a BSG spinoff called Caprica which aired last year, but I didn't catch it.

That's really about it for modern sci-fi TV that I watch.

Fake wrestling has always been science fiction.

Battlestar Galactica (the latest version) was great bought the all the seasons on DVD.
I did watch the first season of Caprica but wasn't a big fan of it. Maybe I should give the second season a chance.

I sure wish they would bring Firefly back.. it was so good my wife even liked it and she doesn't care for sci-fi. I really liked Caprica as well and never got to see the Battlestar Galactica series. Unfortunately my channel selection no longer includes the SciFi channel. I did hear Warehouse 13 was decent but haven't seen it.

As far as Dr. Who I enjoyed the series back in the 80's but it does date back to the 60's. I like the new iteration as well but not quite as well as the older ones.

From the Sci-Fi ones I like
Warehouse 13, Eureka, Sanctuary- this one is actually very good IMO.
On ABC one can watch "V" it is IMO pretty good.
I hope Fringe will keep going for a few more seasons at least.

Tonight on Sci-Fi a new series starts- "Being Human" it looks interesting.
On HBO one can catch "True Blood", that one is awesome.

Good call I forgot about V , TrueBood, Being Human.
Being Human is a re-boot of a british version that was on up here in Canada not that long ago.
