No guess as to what's number one, its the show that fuax cancelled

2 Bizzare murder in the strange town of twin peaks

3 Original StarTrek

4 The A-team

5 Outer limits

I think 'Lost' and the 'Battlestar-Galactica' remake might be cool, but I haven't seen all episodes and their first Seasons were good but next Season could be a bit crap

Shows like Farscape and Lexx were really great and unique but hard to follow and not to everybody's taste

1: Murder One

I finally got around to watching the finale for Supernatural last night. Very good episode, but the cliffhanger leading to next year is going to take some awfully good writing to have that family alive next year without it being a total copout.

LOST (will be off the list should they screw up the resolution, of course)
Star Trek (TOS, TNG)
Twin Peaks
Brisco County, jr. (Bruce Campbell rocks, baby! I'd SO love to see him in a buddy movie with Nathan.)

Maybe Buffy instead of Brisco, though... hard to compare with just one season of Brisco around.

There's also some sit-coms and some series I liked as a kid, which I excluded here, and I like a LOT of other series, but I guess those would be my favorites.

1. FIreFly
2. Mork From Ork
3. Buffy
4. Gargoyles
5. Port Charles -a now cancelled soap opera about vampires.
6.Star Trek DS9

Why do all the shows I like get cancelled ?

Janeway did kick some Borg ass , at least. I think I'd need vodka too ,if I were her.

Ya' got no idea. Sisko would even be able to kick Kirk's ass.

He'd punch Kirk in the happy-sack as he went sailing past with his Kirk-Fu flying-kick-trick, *and* he'd laugh at Kirk as the Great One lay on the ground in agony.

Sisko? He's a bad-ass mother. Jayneway? She's just an old maid.

The only thing kick-ass about Jayneway is that her name contains the word "Jayne".

1.Buffy-My hero
2.Firefly-A beautiful show, potentially the greatest ever but for the visionless fools at Fox.
3.Northern Exposure-I loved as a kid.
4.Veronica Mars-My shiney new show.
5.Xena-This show was a lot of fun, and was not afraid to take chances or parody itself.
I also like: MASH, BSG(new), Batman the Animated Series(not so much, the subsequent versions and not the new one), NCIS (although, I don't know what they're going to do now), and I always watched Angel but I only loved it when it had Faith, Darla or Holtz.

Just move Sisko from the right and put him on the left-hand side, and you'll have it nailed.

Even when Sisko smiled it looked like he was baring his teeth, and getting ready to maul. Jayneway? Her signature move was to stand there with one hand on her hip, one hand on her coffee mug, and that stoopid little one-eyebrow-cocked look that she stole from Bones McCoy.

Except Bones never pursed his lips in that silly little Jayneway, er, way.

5 stars based on 66 reviews.

Yeehaw!

When we get the series back, I'll lobby for Bruce to guest star.

But first things first.

Funny fact: Brisco County jr. was a Western series with Sci-Fi elements on Fox, hailed for its originality, cancelled after one season. Sci-Fi, Western and Fox don't seem to mix. Or maybe it's originality and Fox, or originality and the mainstream audience. Something here doesn't mix.
Ah well, Fox gave both shows a chance, so kudos for that, but wtf?

Hey Agatsu, thanks for the link.

I wonder if there'll be a UK format coming out as well as the American. It won't play in my DVD player (I'm English). Oh hell I might just buy it anyway, can always watch it on the comp.

Bruce would fit in so well with that cast, I can just see him as Mal's long last brother who owns his own moon or something. Ah the Jealousy that could ensue!
