Odyssey 5
FarScape
GvsE
Dead Like Me
Invisible Man
Harsh Realm
Due South

Throw in Babylon 5 and Crusade and I would likely not watch anything else...

I can't believe only one person has mentioned Babylon 5. If you like DS9, you'll probably like B5 as well-----they've got some superficial similarities.

Babylon 5 is, quite simply, the most epic television show ever made.

The first season is kind of blah, but after that, it really picks up, and redefines the genre.

I think B5, FF, and Stargate are my favorite shows at the moment.......

ALSO, check out the new series Joan of Arcadia. Its not really scifi per se, but its very well written---the dialog is almost Whedon-esque. CBS, Fridays at 8. (Hey...that sounds...familiar....)

Aditionally, although its not scifi by any stretch of the imagination, anyone who hasn't seen 24-----get season 1 on DVD. I know its a Fox show, but it really is worth it. (The reason I say DVD is, 24 is the only show I know which is more arc-heavy than Babylon 5.)

Regarding Earth: Final Conflict-----season 1 was excellent. Seasons 2-4 weren't quite as good, but still served for some passable entertainment. Season 5 is an abomination, don't watch it.

Gargoyles -- Best cartoon show Disney ever produced. Killed by Michael Eisner because it was too involved and mature. (Quite possibly the only 'toon to use the phrase 'biological father'.)

The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers -- Better than average 80's cartoon. Impossible to find on tape.
Exo-Squad -- Solid 90's cartoon. An involved story with an arc -- utterly destroyed when the studio starting airing them out of order.

Stewie Griffin: Yes, I rather like this God fellow. He's very theatrical, you know, a pestilence here, a plague there. Omnipotence. Gotta get me some of that.

I want to go on record about Farscape, though: It was only mediocre. Either the characters were too much of a stretch for the actors (the "sensual priestess" comes off instead as "flirty when it adds comedy" and serious all the rest of the time)

or the characters were 2-dimensional (compare Dargo's range of emotion with Warf's inner conflict).

Speaking of actors morphing characters away from The Vision ... what's up with Alan Tudyk? The guy just doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the cast. All the rest of them seem to have that "team" mentality, but he just comes off as being about himself. Maybe I'm reading him wrong. As a result, he's taking the character in directions (comical ones, at that) which I don't really appreciate.
