Webvan State War Academy Caldari State 61	Posted - 2012.09.15 03:54:00 - [1] - Quote That's more than one episode and generally less than a full season (less than 13 weeks according to wikipedia). 2 x 2 is fine, quite a few of those and from full series (two 2hr episodes including commercial time listed/intended as "mini-series"). Sci-fi narrows it down quite a bit, but still quite a few to choose from. What are your 3 pics? Mine are: 1. Farscape: Peacekeeper wars 2. Riese: kingdom falling 3. Frank Herbert's Dune Though Farscape was... weird heh, they did produce a very memorable 2 x 2 miniseries. Just gotta love the vortex of death eternal. Riese, very unique. Dune could have been done better, but even as the lesser of the book and movie, it was excellent.
Surfin's PlunderBunny Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 2198	Posted - 2012.09.15 03:55:00 - [2] - Quote 1) Generation Kill 2) Lexx 3) Farscape "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame. A hero drinks a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that if he does a split in midair, he can hit twice as many zombies per kick. Drunk hero wins again, wusses." ~Cracked.com

Here is a link to the definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miniseries I'm not seeing what you are whining about... Generation Kill says right under it "An HBO mini-series" Lexx was weird and Canadian and kinda vanished so I'm sure it goes in there Also Farscape but just because you said it was "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame.

Multi-season. No one is whining, please don't troll.

Multi-season. No one is whining, please don't troll, this isn't GD ;) Oh and I didn't say farscape was a miniseries, misunderstanding there. I listed "Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars". It's a 2 x 2 miniseries. Ah, ok then. Guess I just have 1 then "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame.

Paul Oliver Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 2399	Posted - 2012.09.15 04:30:00 - [7] - Quote Aside from that great Farscape miniseries and those lame Dune miniseries (no offense to anyone who liked them but all they made me wanna do is watch David Lynch's movie, even if he is a ginger hater), I can't really think of any others. Looking forward to some worth watching that others come up with. "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must undergo the fatigues of supporting it." - Thomas Paine
Surfin's PlunderBunny Sebiestor Tribe Minmatar Republic 2199	Posted - 2012.09.15 05:10:00 - [8] - Quote Ooh! I just remembered another one. The Andromeda Strain, it's only 2 DVDs and runs about 4 hours but it's awesome "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame.

jason hill The Riot Formation Executive Outcomes 98	Posted - 2012.09.15 15:42:00 - [10] - Quote how about the stand by stephen king?. does that one count ?

Sweet thanks for the list, well off that a few I've seen and really liked would be: Taken The Day of the Triffids Dinotopia Robocop: Prime Directives The Langoliers "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must undergo the fatigues of supporting it." - Thomas Paine

It's a "post-apocalyptic horror/fantasy". Post-apocalyptic is usually branched from science fiction. It's also futuristic as opposed to post-apocalyptic mesozoic era for instance. I think it qualifies.
Orakkus The Fancy Hats Corporation Kraken. 78	Posted - 2012.09.16 00:22:00 - [13] - Quote 1.) Star Trek (the Original Series, when the Captain was a man who shot everything that even looked at him funny). 2.) Dr. Who (Ties for first place really, and Tom Baker is arguably the best Doctor) 3.) Firefly
Webvan State War Academy Caldari State 64	Posted - 2012.09.16 03:39:00 - [14] - Quote Orakkus wrote: 2.) Firefly 3.) "V" BEEEEEEEEP hehe. Firefly is a series, even though just one season. V? 'V: the final battle' if you mean that, that's a miniseries. Yes, a challenging question this one
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force 1271	Posted - 2012.09.16 06:00:00 - [15] - Quote Ungh, there aren't many SF MINIseries I'm actually familiar with (i.e. seen/remember) to be able to make good picks from to begin with. I'm going to go with... 1. Masters of Science Fiction (2007) ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0772139 ) 2. Children of Dune (2003) ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0287839 ) 3. The Andromeda Strain (2008) ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0424600 ) And an honourable mention to Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog (2008) ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1227926 ), which I don't really consider "proper" Sci-Fi to actually qualify in spirit (even if technically, it does). If I would consider it appropriate to include it in the above list, it would be slapped in between the current #1 and #2. http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/User:Akita_T http://eve-search.com/stats/Akita_T T2 BPO poll : https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=114789
