Indeed, Firefly at #1! One of the best sci-fi series ever made!

I would have loved to have seen Farscape on there as a number 2... it didn't even make the list!

PIRATENEWS

John Lee, conspiracy therapist at Hollywood award-winner History Channel-mocked SNL-spoofed PirateNew.org wooHOO!!!!!!


What Whedon and Minear are good at is creating a family -- a disfunctional, homicidal, psychotic family.

But still a family that sticks together. Like Mafia.

Woohoo! Firefly's at #1. I'm glad it got some recognition, as it can never get enough.

I love that FF is #1 on the list. Wouldn’t want to call it a re-boot though. Maybe the continuation of a saga.

It is really sad what the executives are choosing to do with the sci-fi genre. Glad WIRED is trying to set them straight.

It should be no surprise that our show would be #1!

FYI: That page works better with "View All"...

Lotsa my favorites on the list...Wasn't sure any other folk remembered Space Rangers. One that should be on the list and isn't : Captain Power And The Soldiers Of The Future.

Don't really see why Farscape should make the list.It had a pretty good crack of the whip and managed to at least conclude.Now Lexx,if that had been given a bit more high brow treatment,could have reached a much wider audience. When it was shown in the UK,it was put on at an unearthly time of night,but it was so wierd!!!
