Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
Babylon 5 is my all time favorite ,i have them all on my NAS drive and can quite happily watch the whole series over and over again 
closely followed by SGI/Atlantis (universe was the sorriest piece of telly ever)
Andromeda wasn't too bad either

Re: What is your favourite Sci Fi Series
Dross like Andromeda in that list, yet no Firefly? Atlantis & Universe, yet no SG-1? 
BSG... Original, or re-imagining?
For me... nuBSG, B5, SG-1, Firefly, and The X Files. I love Doctor Who (old & new), but it's not at the top of my list. The first season of Heroes was excellent, the rest were... not.

No Farscape either.
Falling Skies is included and that hasn't even aired a full season yet and Heroes makes the list over The 4400? It's absurd

Certainly should. It spawned Atlantis and Universe (which are in the poll even though their parent isn't), and once held the record for longest consecutive running science fiction TV series (until it was recently beaten by Superman's Creek  ).
I was tempted to edit the poll to add it, but there's no space left.
