I gotta say, I think The Silence are one of the creepiest/coolest aliens ever.
THEY COULD BE RIGHT HERE!

This is actually the first episode i show to a new person watching Doctor Who. It doesn't give away an plots or story line spoilers. One of my favs. And remember what ever you do, don't blink.

Doctor Who has been my favorite for the last couple years - too bad David Tennant didn't stay in the show longer, he was the best Doctor so far. As have been mentioned, Blink episode is excellent - you should show it to little kids in completely dark living room  (warning though: they probably don't want to sleep alone or in dark bedrooms after that...  )
Other series I've enjoyed over the years have been Farscape, Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars (this is just epic!), Stargate series, Torchwood (Doctor Who spin off), Eureka, Warehouse 13, Fringe, Sanctuary, Andromeda, Primeval, Earth: Final Conflict... can't remember all of them.
From anime scifi series Heroic Age has huge space battles and nice story. Another fun anime series is Lost Universe.
I've tried to watch 4400, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, V 2009, Galactica, Dollhouse, Bionic Woman etc. but I couldn't stand watching them more than couple episodes. Maybe some others like them...
Now I've waiting Defiance tv-series and mmorpg - this one sounds interesting as the events from tv-series reflect into the game and what players do in the game reflects to the tv-series. And I thought how Goons could mess this up royally  .
I think they're also releasing this year Star Trek: TNG in bluray format with new enhanced CGI so I guess I'll have to get those and watch the whole series again. If they did the same for Babylon 5, I'd buy it immediately. |

Yeah, Blake's 7 was an absolute classic. It hasn't aged well, sadly - it was a time when most of the actors had come from theatre and were still adjusting to the different style of acting on tv, but it was way ahead of its time. If you have fond memories or Blake, Avon and crew you might enjoy this short spoof Blake's Junction 7
Space Above and Beyond was released on DVD for the first time just last month, btw.
Of stuff not already mentioned, I really enjoyed Charlie Jade, from 2005 - it was a very well produced South African show. Apparently it didn't get picked up for more series because people struggled with the accent, though I can't say it was much of a problem as far as I remember. |

Huge Babylon 5 fan here and still wonder why this was the only series where someone cared to think about the epic ark before they went into production. I mean you really see that stuff that happens from episode 1 is connected to the main plot over the whole series. You may not understand everything at first, but it all fits together.
Almost every series i know was mentioned here, the only thing that wasn't if i'm not mistaken is Space Rangers. Got only 6 episodes, one of the pioneers in CGI if i remember correctly. With a very nice asymmetrical ship called "Tin Lizzie" |

New series Continuum looks good, as long as it doesn't bite the bullet midway through first season.
