Don’t know how you guys feel about comparisons to Star Trek but I thought this was interesting.

Also, Mods … if this kind of post is not allowed, I don’t mind it being taken down.

I’ve only watched about half of all Star Trek content with series and movies and animations. I thought I had years of content to watch in the future … but after hearing about other series from other people over the years, through comments in this community and through lists like this Youtube video … I think I’ll be spending the rest of my life watching scifi, the majority of which will be Star Trek.

    Good list. Perhaps the only one I disagree with is SG:U. As a series it was unfulfilling, and if animated series are on the list (given that legend of the galactic heroes was listed) I’d have gone with Macross/Robotech.

      Over any other Stargate series, I don’t get why anyone would put Universe on a “best of” list like this.

        I sorta interpreted it as “We wanted to put Stargate on the list, but Universe is the only one that actually takes place in space.” SG-1 and Atlantis definitely spend their fair share of time on spaceships, but that’s outnumbered like 30-to-1 by time spent in the gateroom or the scenic woodland vistas of Vancouver.

        I’m a fan of Universe, and thought it got a bad rap, but yeah - SG1 is obviously the jewel of the Stargate franchise.

      Unfortunately, it doesn’t really pay off until the end, and even then, the payoff is a bit anti-climactic.
