    Which sci-fi series do you think is the greatest? The ever persistant Star Trek or perhaps the new king Stargate. Maybe some ozzie sci-fi such as Farscape. What about sky ones new sci-fi drame jake2.0.

    Umm why on EARTH is Jake 2.0 when it's only just begun? It's also hardly in the same league of sci-fi as the other shows in the poll. Why isn't Babylon 5 here? It's an acknowledged classic. Why not Doctor Who? You can hardly forget some of the biggest names in the genre! Given the limited choice so far, I opted for 'Farscape'.

    Stargate sg 1 is the current best by a far far.....far.....far ....far way so i vote for that.

    Star trek Tng and Ds9 + Bab 5 are out and out classics though.

    space above and beyond was pretty cool, with a realistic ending
    with nearly everyone dying that is

    Star Trek - which one
    What ever you say about the original series, remember it was made before most of you were born, and just blows lost in space out of the water.
    Voyager, if there are no Borg I'm not interested, I perfer Enterprise (<-- not a troll). DS9 Curates egg. TNG as long as Wesley ain't there.

    Would you consider the original black and white twilight zone to be a series ?

    Thunderbirds / UFO / Space 1999 (the first series)

    Both B5 and Farscape beat most of the Star Trek series.

    Well they did that at the End of Blakes 7....

    I think this poll is really poor..I mean how the hell do you put Jake 2.0 in there at all....

    Dr.Who, the longest running SciFi show in the world is my
    choice...Coming back in 2005! What about Battlestar Gallactica, Blakes 7, Quatermass....SciFi started before the 90s...

    I hate the way you cant buy space above and beyond on DVD!
    I decided i would have to DL it and then buy it ifif ever comes out on DVD. - but its a 8gig download it will take ages.

    Mine too :D Azezil, change my vote please! Nothing beats the Doc and his TARDIS (or the Doc and TARDIS, if you read the old Target novels).

    Thanks for the inclusion of Babylon 5 in the poll, my choice of all time classic series.
    To be fair there were outstanding single episodes of ST in all the series, even I'll grugingly admit Voyager.

    BTW why no "V" in this poll, or will there be a follow up for all time worst shows, mmmm tasty rodents.

    Firstly, it doesn't have potential 'coz it's axed :D
    Secondly, it may have potential but lots of the other shows there have realised their potential and achieved it. They're surely a better vote than something that MAY be good rather than something that IS good...
