orcishgamer: As for DS9 I will club captain Janeway to death with a splintery baseball bat, I hate that show and I hate that character. Yes, seven of nine is kind of hot but it does not save this horrid show DIE SHWO DIE. I did buy my ex father in law who was afan of this show a tshirt with seven of nine and a huge cardboard cutout of her and picard (i know he's not in it, but he lieks hime too). He was embarassed but I made him take them to work.
You're thinking of the abortion called Voyager, not DS9. Voyager was a acidic pit of retard where your brain cells went to melt. DS9 had The Sisko.

Oh yeah, you are right, when I am done with Janeway I will make my dog pee on that charatcer's remains. FDUck that show, really.

Okay I will try DS9. And B5, keep hearingf about it.

Am I the only one who loved Enterprise? I really thought it was more like TOS than anything else they'd done.

nondeplumage: If you don't mind cartoons:

Planetes. There isn't a science fiction show that actually deals with speculative science fiction in existence on television better than this.

Exosquad! It's got the voice of Prince Alexander from King's Quest VI, and if you can get past the cheesy 90s art, it actually has a pretty damn good story. Nothing we really haven't seen before, but it's presented well.

Outlaw Star. This one's just plain fun.
I'm going to try these out, they sound pretty interesting.

nondeplumage: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Originally a straight rip off of Babylon 5, it quickly grew into its own, offering an epic story with epic characters in itself. It hits its peak from seasons 3-6. I've only recently discovered this one too.
I've watched both DS9 and Babylon 5, really liked both, and I even own DS9. Honestly I always felt the rivalry was more of an attempt to drum up viewership than anything real and that the similarities between the two shows were very superficial. I know Babylon 5's creator tried to sell Babylon 5 to Paramount before DS9 was created but if you look at the evolution of DS9 it started before then though admittedly it was meant to be set on colony world rather than a space station. However, with respect to themes, characters, story etc ... they were pretty different shows almost from the get go. I would actually say DS9 started out stronger than Babylon 5, but both of them became much better as they progressed. Babylon 5's second season was a huge leap forward in quality.

Both are quality shows.

I got ... bored of Enterprise I guess because I just viewed it as another TOS/TNG style show it never seemed to bring anything new to the table. I just felt I'd seen each episode before. Apparently I stopped watching before it got good. Though I heard the series finale was terrible, I also heard that the last couple of season were of higher quality in general.

Anybody remember Space: Above and Beyond? It's been a long time since I've watched it, but I remember it being good military SF.

Also a personal favourite. McQueen will always be a legendary badass.

Dunno if you can stream it anywhere, but if you're into obscure stuff, Star Wreck.

The next (upcoming) movie by the makers of Star Wreck, Iron Sky, looks like it's going to be, in lack of a better word, awesome.

lukipela: I just finished watching Brazil.

Also, if you are into SciFi, try the movie sunshine. It is absolutely beautiful. There is also a plot, i think.
I was always ashamed that I didn't "get" Brazil. Apparently there are multiple cuts floating around out there and some aren't very good. Maybe I got a bad one...

I'll take a look at Sunshine.
