    I watched it, oh, was it last year? The entire series. It had some stupid moments, but on the whole it was genius. I loved it.

    After that I discovered the most excellent "Firefly." :D Why, oh why, was that show cancelled?! Network idiots! :woo:

    At the moment I'm on "Castle," which is not sci/fi. Good thread idea, yes.

    Aikimac, you poor soul. I watched all of the one series of Firefly last year and share your disappointment. If you didn't know, the creator made a movie called Serenity for closure. If you watch it you'll be a lot sadder than you are now though.


    Browncoats!

    Yep, I watched "Serenity" after I finished the tv series. Thanks, though. I don't think the movie would have made sense to one who hadn't seen the tv show, but it did indeed give me closure. :) (Idiot network executives!!!)

    There are a few comic books that tell about the in-between period, but I have not read them.

    The sole reason why I'm watching "Castle" now is Nathan Fillion. Dude rocks. I really like him as an actor. :)

    I think so. I thought the beginning few episodes were fairly weak, like they tried to rush introducing all the characters, not really fleshing them out enough, but as the season goes on and they get fleshed out more, along with a few twists and turns, it does get quite interesting.

    I think it takes until about halfway through the first season until it really starts to pick up. I also think the second season has been setup to be a bit more in depth.

    Had as pretty good season finale as well.

    There was a Star Trek thread on another forum I occasionally post to that mentioned a side project or whatever they call those offshoots Star Trek: Enterprise. Maybe when I'm done with The Thick of It I'll try my googlefoo for an episode or two see if it's any good

    Enterprise is a good series, in my opinion. I really enjoyed watching it.

    Big scifi fan.

    Doctor Who, Supernatural, Firefly, etc. Not a big trekkie at all. Enjoy the weird little corners of scifi. Scored Sapphire and Steel on DVD a while back.

    Two cartoon series I cannot recommend highly enough are Star Wars: Clone Wars and Tron Uprising. Sadly, Tron Uprising (which has a brilliant Matrix 1 feel to it) might not be renewed for a third season because of low ratings.

    Enterprise sucked. Remember the guy from Quantum Leap? He's the captain. Tries his hardest to be Kirk. It's little more than a last chance to milk all the old story lines and Star Trek clichés. Which is why it failed. Paramount had a chance to reboot the TV franchise and do something new and different with it. But instead resorted to recycling the old.

    And of course they always over come the insurmountable odds. Which turn out to be not so insurmountable after all. Oh and they fight a time war.

    Have to agree, TNG and DS9 were infinitely superior. Plus the Enterprise theme song. Ye Gods.
