If you decide to check some Stargate series, watch the original one with Dean Andersen in it. Love it.

I think I found two series to follow. Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles, and the Knight Rider remake

To me if it is not Firefly it is just something to watch until Firefly comes back on.

Man I miss that series

I watched that series..."Firefly"..it is available on Netflix...because of watching the movie Serenity...I liked the movie and enjoyed the mini-series very much too....That, like Farscape, was a travesty it was canceled because of some knuckle head pencil pusher who does not know good sci-fi if it is in they're lap...

If you want to see a complete ripoff of the classic sub film the "Enemy Below" watch the classic Star Trek Episode "Balance of Terror"

You can watch it now for free now from CBS at this link (only available to US users )

Star Trek would of course return to the sub warfare feel in that "battle of the superhams" "Star Trek II the Wrath of Khaaaan"

Yeah....I always loved that battle scene with the Enterprise and Reliant. Pointblank warfare in the 23rd Century. :p

Registered browncoat here; Firefly rules the roost, with the entire B5 a very close second.

J. Michael Straczinski, creator of Babylon 5, was writing Spider-Man for some time, and in one of his early issues he has spidey crawling along the ceiling, while below him two techies are talking:

"You watch Babylon 5? What kind of crap is that? I mean, something that happens in season one doesn't make any sense until season three? What's that all about?":rotfl:

B5 is cool, but I loved Firefly while it was on...stupid the way they canned it when it was so popular
