I agree with that; it was tough staying awake even while fast-forwarding through most of it.

Jayne, your mouth is talkin. Might want to look into that.

From the MST3K front I'd like to nominate 'Manos: The Hands of Fate.' Even watching it with funny commentary it was still, as my husband described it, "like watching a train wreck at a frame a day."

I was also unbelievably disappointed at Jet Li's 'The One.' I would really love for him to succeed in the US, but it's not gonna happen when he keeps churning out crap like that.

Good call, but I'm not sure if I'd describe "Manos" as Sci-Fi. It had more of a Lifetime, movie-of-the-week vibe to it, don't you agree?

Also, as for "The One," any movie that features the bad guy pick up not one, but TWO, motorcycles at once, and smash a dude with them like they were flyswatters... well, c'mon, that's FUNNY!!

I have to agree with Highlander 2 being way up there on the 'worst' list. I LOVED Highlander, so naturally I went to see #2...it was pain incarnate. I left in a state of confusion and felt like my mind had been curbstomped by a pack of rabbid rioters. I left the theater..wiser. I never did see the 'other' ones and refuse to agknowledge their existence.

As for TV...let me end the debate here and now on the Andromeda thing. IT SUCKS!!! It is like Hercules in space...and yes Sorbo is the worst actor(?) on tv. How that drivel survives when so much goodness(i.e. Firefly) went the way of the dodo I'll never know.

-Dark/Blue

P.S. SG-1 also baffles me...bad...no sir, don't like it.

The worst Sci-fi ever is anything and I do mean ANYTHING that stars Wil Smith. Why do people keep going to his films. Wild, Wild West has to be the most embarrassing anti-intellectual cheese fest since Night of the Comet. Or an even better question why do I keep watching Wil Smith films? Well I'm done never again will I subject myself to such horror. I swear he's trying to be in a film worse than Night of the Comet and one day he will succeed and I'm not going to be there to witness it. I don't care if his next film has all the Firefly actors in it I'm still not paying money for any more of his crap.

I found a review of I Robot that pretty much somes up my view of the film. Warning this link is not for the easily offened.If you hated this film as much as me you might dig this link. I think this link is funny as hell. Issac Asimov is rolling in his grave.

I rather liked Event Horrizon I thought it was a rather good horror film. That film scared the crap out of me. Cherry 2000 just saw that last week end it's awfull but it's my kind of awfull. So cheesey as to be sort of fun.

Also any film made by the Sci-fi channel is by definition the worst Sci-fi ever.Why do they keep making that crap? Who watches it why?

Lets see what else Lexx the show when it was a mini-series from Showtime called Tales From a Parallel Universe it was awsome then when it moved to Sci-Fi channel and became Lexx Sci-fi channel just wrecked it. But if you haven't checked out the original version I highly recommend it.

Earth Finial conflict deserves a mention as does Sliders a show that in concept that could have been the greatest show ever but always sucked. I kept tuning in hoping it would get better but it never ever did. Sliders was always trying to teach me some heavy handed politically correct message. Like rascism is bad or something. Like I as a viewer was supposed to after watching an episode say someting like, thanks Sliders writters before I watched your truelly deep show I thought rascism was cool but now I know it's in fact bad. In fact your beating me to death with your politically correct message completly made me not notice just how bad you guys writing really is thanks a million Sliders writers!"

And lets not forget Small Wonder and Sea Quest DSV.

Low Budget and Hated

Some say its fiction others say its a Documentary but I don't know if it is good or bad

The Fourth Kind is a 2009 psychological horror thriller scifi? film featuring a cast of Milla Jovovich, Elias Koteas, Corey Johnson, Will Patton, Charlotte Milchard, Mia Mckenna-Bruce, Yulian Vergov, and Osunsanmi. The title is derived from the expansion of J. Allen Hynek's classification of close encounters with aliens, in which the fourth kind denotes alien abductions.

Going back to this thread I don't know about worst scifi / fantasy because even B-movies can be respect for effort in their low budget products

Dr Who has become one of the worst, it used to be a cult hit and ranked among the best. Reality tv has always been bad from Ghost Hunters to 'Stars on Mars. there have been Marvel and DC Shows dead on arrival Batwoman TV series or 'Inhumans', tv shows that fade and crash because the actors or producer are seen as creepy, Crisis in Six Scenes. Unnecessary movie remakes Firestarter, Minority Report series, The Stepford Wives, Flatliners, Planet of the Apes etc
There are shows that go on too long or are just Over Rated, 'Lost' is probably when I just stopped watching tv, Black Summer, Blindspot, Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones...Walking Dead possibly killed the zombie genre

Star Wars and star Trek have been doing tv and movies way too long, J. J. Abrams is highly over rated as a film maker, almost no new concept or fun ideas, nothing fresh anymore.

I think Breaking Bad was just about the perfect length for a great show that rarely stumbled along the way and had what I consider the Perfect Ending. Though it ranks at the top, it wasn't my all time favorite show, but I consider the ending the best ending in any show I've ever seen. The only other TV show ending I think is close to it was Chuck, and though I have a fondness for that show, I wouldn't put it in my top 10. Endings are important though, and those two did it right.

Maybe you mean that Breaking Bad was too long because of the movie about Jessie and the Better Call Saul series after the fact? I never did finish Better Call Saul, but not because I thought it was bad. It certainly was no Breaking Bad, but I stopped watching pretty much all TV shows when I quit drinking, and this was one of the ones I intend to get back to at some point.

LOST only annoys me because of how much they fumbled at the end there. If you view good TV as a journey rather than a destination, LOST had that in spades. But the ending and really the final season in general just made me think I wasted a lot of time there. It's really unfortunate when you found out they never had a plan and were winging it all along.

The Walking Dead was amazing in the beginning. But they dragged it out way too long and everyone lost interest. It should have been 5 seasons long like Breaking Bad with no spinoffs. You couldn't pay me to finish watching it or sit through a minute of any one of the spinoff series. (They did make all those stupid spin-offs, didn't they? I'd heard about them, but I don't follow it at all anymore).
