Assume the following things:

UNCUT Patreon & edited YouTube reactions

4 UNCUT episodes a month on Patreon & 1 episode a week on YouTube

This is the poll of evil

Stevtrek · May 3, 2024

Sliders... some of the same writers and staff as TNG worked on this series.

M
Mark Wood · April 27, 2024

The Expanse. Simply put the finest sci-fi space based show that has ever been made. This is someone who watch TOS from 69 on, loved a ton of quality sci-fi shows over 55 years of watching tv. While I love Trek (and I LOVE trek), Expanse blows it out of the water in pretty much every single aspect of filmmaking. Other high quality projects (based on its time) Farscape, Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, Dark. Just to name a few.

G
Gail Seaton Humbert · April 27, 2024

Babylon 5 is really an early DS9 besides which you get Walter Koenig in it.

R
Richard Powers Hardt · April 26, 2024

It doesn't get a lot of votes, but the Expanse is the best of these. True science fiction, Scientifically accurate, but a slugfest throughout, amazing series. I would suggest you guys watch the first couple of episodes and then drop it if it isnt your cup of tea, but I'm betting you two would get it

L
Lost Monk · April 26, 2024

Babylon 5 is true storytelling with true character arcs.

N
Nathan Cline · April 25, 2024

I would say if you are going to be doing the Battlestar Galactica Mini-Series, then go with the rest of that show (2004) I'm also a huge supporter of Babylon 5 reactions and The Expanse Reactions. Those 2 might be better off waiting a little bit until you get through more of Trek and BSG if you are going to get into that. There is always a thirst for a new B5 reaction, especially if they are spread out some .

M
Matthew Jimenez · April 25, 2024

Damn I'm bummed to see DARK get so little love.

M
Mark Wood · April 27, 2024

I honestly prefer space based science fiction. But Dark is absolutely excellent television. For myself I still believe the Expanse is a better overall show. But Dark is absolutely in my top ten sci fi of all time.

C
Clyde Frog · April 25, 2024

100% Battlestar Galactica. Incredible show.

D
David Brown · April 25, 2024

Quantum Leap (Seasons 2 - 5)

Screaming Frog · April 25, 2024

You guys would get a kick out of Red Dwarf. British comedy/sci-fi series, 30-min episodes, 6-episode seasons. You could fly though it pretty quickly.

A
Axis 77 · April 24, 2024

Well... At least Farscape is out voting GoT... 🥺😔

Y
Yannik M. · April 24, 2024

Stargate is a franchise where you can find a lot of actors from Star Trek

S
Steve the greeeen hand · April 24, 2024

It’s should go b5 the expanse and then stargate

L
Lost Monk · April 24, 2024

I think you should create another poll. Only Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica, and Stargate SG-1. And see which one of the three, people go for. I'd be curious which one gets the majority of support from those who voted for one of the other titles on the list.

M
Matt Newmark · April 24, 2024

GoT would have had a vote until I read that Alex has seen it. While I wish that experience for Josh at some point, I personally prefer my reactors to be virgins so to speak. As such I voted BSG 2004 because I've heard nothing but great things about it and yet for some reason I've never seen it (I did see Caprica) . Along with Enterprise and Discovery those will be things I can experience for the first time with A&J.

J
Jovet · April 25, 2024

I agree on the "virgin reactions". Just as I won't vote for (or probably watch a reaction to) something I've not seen myself... with the limited time available and sheer volume of things to choose from... it would be a bit of a waste to watch something one of them has already seen.

M
Miah1138 · April 24, 2024

M*A*S*H !!!!!

Analog Mind · April 24, 2024

Show ain't worth it after season 1, but Check out the original West World Movie from the 70s

B
BN13 · April 24, 2024

A lot of these I'm not familiar with, but Babylon 5 and some of these other shows deserve the full Star Trek treatment. Baylon 5 is arguably better than Star Trek and there is so much to discuss. And as others have said, it's best to watch after you've seen DS9. Not just because of the nods and thematic similarities, but because IMO DS9 feels like nothing after you've seen Babylon 5. And this is coming from someone who's favorite show of all time was DS9. DS9 is an amazing show, but now it's my second favorite because I've seen Babylon 5. Something like Sherlock would be better to do right now in the style that you propose. More easily digestible, it benefits from being spread out, and you'll gain some sherlock holmes knowledge.

P
Prof Moff · April 24, 2024

I just have to say I disagree with the Sherlock point made. First I love Sherlock, great show, but IMO without knowledge of the actual Holmes stories the show is not nearly as good. It relies on many twists away from the original stories but if you do not know them (like the guys have said they don't) then the show is not as good. The show that is actually great to "get to know" Holmes stories is the 80's to 90's TV show Sherlock Holmes starring Jeremy Brett as Holmes. Most of which is on You Tube for free.

W
William Yelland · April 24, 2024

You might want to wait on "Babylon 5" until you start watching "Star Trek: Deep Space Nine" they're kind of similar premise. *And* there is some debate whether DS9 was based on the B5 (the creator pitched B5 to Paramount, gave them his script, outline, characters, pretty much all the details for his show, but Paramount turned him down and then Paramount announced DS9 right after B5 was bought by Warner Brothers).

W
William Yelland · April 24, 2024

"Dark" is really good (casting was amazing), and the whole story wraps-up in 3 seasons (originally planned that way).

S
SinocTheHodgeheg · April 24, 2024

I feel more sci-fi may be a little too much maybe? Voted for peaky blinders anyhow, would encourage me to watch it myself too

P
Phillip Grischa · April 24, 2024

Dark deserves more votes, a very, very good show and not too long, 26 episodes and done. BSG 2004 and The Expanse are my runner up choices.

M
Martin Wilson · April 24, 2024

Farscape gets my vote I think it would appeal to your sense of humour it will also break your heart when you least expect it. Also hope any other reaction doesn’t limit the Star Trek ones we need more not less lol.

R
Rj Simas · April 24, 2024

I voted, but IMO you guys should just do more ST for now anyways. There's so much.

M
MrTickleTrunk · April 24, 2024

It's a shame Warehouse 13 wasn't included since Eureka is there. The shows were on the same network, were in the same TV universe and had 3(?) crossover episodes.

W
Will Sofer · April 24, 2024

I had no idea they were set in the same universe; I never watched Warehouse 13. And if I’m being honest, I watched Eureka in part because of how gorgeous the actresses were. It’s a pretty goofy show.

K
Katie Jackson · April 24, 2024

I chose Sliders, which is great it's first 2 seasons. Still pretty good it's 3rd but unfortunately completely fell apart it's 4th and final season. Still one of the most unique scifi shows out there. Farscape is so much fun. I love the characters and the show is great at balancing fun moments with very serious ones. It also really looks different from anything else out there, with great work from the Jim Henson company throughout the series. Stargate SG-1 is an amazing series that spawned a great franchise. Richard Dean Anderson is just great and a blast to watch as Jack O'Neil. I really think you'd love all three of these series! Sliders ran 4 seasons Farscape ran 4 seasons Stargate SG-1 ran 10 seasons

L
Leo Greenwood · April 24, 2024

I think that Severance would check a lot of boxes for you, also, since one of you has already seen GoT, it would make more sense to watch HotD instead.

J
Jacob Conley · April 24, 2024

Sherlock. And that will give you an Appreciation for some future star trek episodes

m
mrxak · April 24, 2024

If you want to try a series that isn't scifi, but does have ships and crews, Black Sails is wonderful. Pirates in the golden age of piracy in the Caribbean, based mostly around the historical pirate haven of Nassau in the early 1700s. It's got a mixture of historical and fictional people, all very compelling characters. High stakes drama, comparable to a show like Game of Thrones. Great writing. There isn't a lot of action to start with as the world and characters are introduced, but it builds up to some spectacular sequences of naval combat in the age of sail. It's quite funny at times, too, but it isn't an adventure comedy like Pirates of the Caribbean, it's much more grounded and uses humor to break the tension of more serious scenes. It was on a pretty obscure premium cable channel back in the day so not a lot of people knew about it, but it's one of the best shows ever, and I'm seeing it get more attention lately.

N
Nerd's Gold · April 24, 2024

If you should do a poll of shows where you watch the first season only, I would suggest Sliders and True Detective. The first season of Sliders might be the smartest season of TV ever, and the first season of True Detective (while very dark) might be the best single season on TV ever.

J
Jovet · April 24, 2024

My absurd/silly suggestion: LEXX (1997)

L
Laughing Man Productions² · April 24, 2024

Oh no lmao I mean, I think it's a crazy show, not necessarily "good" more of "wtf is this and why does it work?", but I dunno if it would match their tastes.

G
GamingHour2018 · April 24, 2024

so i'd love to see yall check out SG-1 but i also love Eureka and i think yall would really enjoy both, either way it'll be interesting to see which series wins

T
Tara S · April 24, 2024

Those were my two picks!

C
Chtphr Rrr · April 24, 2024

I think I would suggest picking whichever series is shortest or whichever one peaks the interest of both of you the most. Almost all of these shows are too modern for me to know much about them. I am told that Babylon 5 is kind of like a soap opera but worse in that once you start it you need to watch ever episode back to back because if you skip one episode you might be completely lost. That's just what I was told. Space: 1999 has been streaming on youtube. I think that Space: 1999, Harve Bennett's The Six Million Dollar Man, and 1983's V all start out as miniseries, but I think you would find most 1970s-era shows to be too slow-paced. However, introductory miniseries like with the newer Battlestar Galatica are a good way to get a sample of something. As I said before, being wrestlers, you two also need to watch the two or three Six Million Dollar Man episodes with André the Giant. Looking back at it, I think Space: 1999 was heavily influenced with its look and slower pace by the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey. My write-in vote would be for Red Dwarf, probably my favorite all-time show -- 30-minute science fiction isolation comedy heavily-influenced by Star Trek; it you don't like it after the second the episode, you probably won't like it at all, although the show changes quite a bit at episode 13. (As someone mentioned, the pilot episode of Shatner's T. J. Hooker might be neat too. I would also suggest the Shatner films Airplane II and the obscure movie Free Enterprise from 1998 which has one rare obscure joke that only a big Star Trek fan would get.)

m
mrxak · April 24, 2024

Babylon 5 has continuity, you mean. So do lots of shows on this poll. So does Star Trek, particularly Deep Space Nine.

J
Jason Biggs · April 24, 2024

Why not just stick with trek you got a lot of Greek coming up soon

A
Angela Graves · April 23, 2024

Anyone else out there watch the show Awake with Jason Isaacs? That was a surprisingly good show that was only on for one season.

T
Timothy Hennon · April 23, 2024

If you want to leave science fiction behind entirely for a while, I strongly recommend Mad Men. Great writing, acting, and three-dimensional characters that you'll find yourself both loving and loathing at the same time.

C
Christopher Devlin · April 23, 2024

This just inspired me to rewatch few shows tbh ha ha

T
Timothy Hennon · April 23, 2024

I vote Babylon 5, but you're going to find yourself having a hard time NOT doing episodic discussions on it, particularly as the larger seasons-long story arcs unfold.

m
mrxak · April 24, 2024

Yeah, Babylon 5 deserves full discussions afterwards. I still voted for it, but maybe they should go with something like The Expanse instead.

B
Brian K · April 23, 2024

The Incredible Hulk (1978) with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno? The first live action incarnation of the Hulk. Even if you don’t watch the series, the 2-part pilot was released theatrically in Europe so it could make for an interesting movie reaction.

J
Jovet · April 23, 2024

Doctor Who (1963) is not an option. 😳

T
Target Audience · April 23, 2024

Probably the one franchise too long to try and tackle while doing Star Trek

T
Tristan Cray · April 23, 2024

I feel like since this is such a heavy Trek community so far, the answers are a bit predictable, but if you're looking to expand the audience, go for something different and then circle back to the top picks later.

D
D'Lytning · April 23, 2024

Since I don't afford every channel out there, I can only recommend shows I've seen. That being said, Have you (or anybody else, for that matter) seen "The Prisoner"? Made around the same time as Star Trek TOS, it's a take on the spy themes of the day, with a bit of a twist, one might say.... \\//_

P
PIG · April 23, 2024

No but I’ve heard good stuff.

G
Greg Quinn · April 23, 2024

I voted True Detective (only a few others did, so it's not gonna win). But just the first season....

P
Paul O'Neal · April 23, 2024

Game of Thrones is an epic series that doesn't quite stick the landing. Still one of the best things ever done for TV, though. Babylon 5 is a MUST. This series is an absolute masterpiece. The first and fifth seasons get a bit slow, but it's a game changer. Farscape is FUN. It starts a little rough, but good. Then it gets better, deeper, and weirder. It's a hell of a ride. Stargate SG-1 is great, not quite on Trek's level, but enjoyable. Battlestar Galactica (2004) is a great series. It has its ups and down and (like GoT) doesn't stick the landing, but it's got some truly amazing and compelling moments. Those are my votes, in order.

C
Christina Brock · April 23, 2024

The only show in the poll that I've actually seen is Sherlock, which is one of my favorites, so I voted for that. I also think a change of genre would be a good idea, as some others have said, and with that in mind, I'd like to put in a plug for The Chosen.

t
tyranusfan · April 23, 2024

Seaquest DSV. (Season 1 only).

m
mrxak · April 24, 2024

Nah, watch all of it, in its utter insanity.

J
Josh Eversole · April 23, 2024

The Orville is a great one to add, but in fairness... do yourself a favor. If you have strong negative reactions to "new trek", like many old-school fans do; do the Orville whilst you are also doing new trek, it will help with your sanity and they were released at roughly the same time. BSG 2004 is a FANTASTIC choice, very different feel from Star Trek, but also very VERY good.

A
Alan Thompson · April 23, 2024

T.J. Hooker. Hell On Wheels would be an option given your new interest in a certain actor. Deadwood is a great show worth watching but the use of language makes it a hard to ever stream or show a clip of it without youtube blowing a gasket. No doubt the suggestion to watch all the James Bond films has been made by now.

A
AmmaLeslie · April 23, 2024

Mad Men

D
DG · April 23, 2024

I agree with all of what valen wrote earlier. There's a reason that Star Trek and Stargate series are constantly rerun on British TV, but BSG not so much

S
Sam Ferguson · April 23, 2024

Honestly, I think you'd both enjoy a lot of these. But the two that stand out are 'Battlestar Galactica' and 'True Detective'. If you end up liking the BSG mini-series, then the series is a no-brainer for you. It ain't perfect, but it's real good. And the first season of 'True Detective' is probably the best single season of television ever made. You can decide for yourselves about the subsequent seasons (it's an anthology), but the first one is a must-see in my opinion. 'For All Mankind' isn't on the poll, but I saw someone else recommend it. I don't know why it's not more popular. It's on a typical "long hiatus between seasons that streaming shows need these days" kind of break right now, but I think it's the best current show on any platform or network. Criminally underrated.

A
Anthony Bernacchi · April 23, 2024

I don't know why "For All Mankind" isn't more popular in general, only why I'm not interested in watching it: it does certain things with the alternate history concept that I, as a lifelong space buff, find extremely off-putting.

T
THE Fans · April 23, 2024

In the 1980s NBC released INCREDIBLE HULK movies, which were terrible, with really bad Hulk make-up and hair, plus corny stories and a really bad THOR. Those movies were based off of the very successful and highly rated CBS 1970s INCREDIBLE HULK TV SERIES, which was award winning with over 80 episodes, only cancelled because it cost too much. It won a GOLDEN GLOBE for Best Actress. Unfortunately, the garbage 80s movie pictures are what people have seen for decades on the internet. The original TV series was excellent, sometimes scary, with a huge following. The "Hulk" transformations were almost as good as AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON's. People post clips from the TV show and they get millions of views on youtube. My only regret about this series is there are NO reactions to it on youtube, only some reviews. The TV series even has many ties and "easter eggs" in SHE-HULK and Ed Norton's Hulk movie, but reaction channels haven't noticed those easter eggs because they haven't seen the TV series. I would PAY to see a good reaction channel do some "best of" episodes of THE INCREDIBLE HULK.

E
Elway Simpson · April 23, 2024

Fargo and True Detective definitely wont win, but I think would be perfect. Each season is it's own story. There are some connections but very much you could pick any season and be just fine. They both would give variety from the sci-fi you've been watching a lot of if that's what you're looking for. I love both of these shows. I hope they come back on future polls....BSG is gonna run away with this victory; and deservedly so.

B
Brian Leonard · April 23, 2024

For All Mankind

v
valen · April 23, 2024

Star Trek, Stargate SG-1 and Babylon 5 are the S TIER of all scifi shows imo. BSG is just space drama with a feint backdrop of scifi. I enjoy Trek because it has gone beyond the needless interpersonal conflict and drama. Stargate shares this with Trek and the relatively similar tone make it a 2nd favorite for most trek fans. I can guarantee you that you will deeply enjoy stargate if you enjoy trek. BSG has a lot of fans but, like I said, drama is too much. Drama has zero rewatchability from my perspective. Real scifi on the other hand I can watch all day and never get bored. Which is why I enjoy quality reactions to real scifi like Trek and sg-1 coz it makes me feel like I'm watching it for the first time again. Kudos for this list!

m
mrxak · April 24, 2024

I would add The Expanse to the list.

S
Sherman Lin · April 23, 2024

I would exercise extreme caution adding to adding a long series that may have a strong cult following BUT that might NOT have been widely popular. As an example another channel that started at the approximately same time as yours that also started doing Star Trek TOS got bogged down doing Babylon 5. The channel is R knight look at their growth it completely lost the mojo when they did that look at the views on reactions to Babylon 5 compared to TOS down by 90%. I luv Space 1999 but you should never do that series as MOST people have never seen it. I would reccomend either short series or widely popular series. As an example have you guys seen the X files from the 90s. Series is long 11 seasons but widely popular in the day. Or i would suggest modern shorter run series like Sopranos Game Of Thrones Madmen because even when series was years long there are short 8 to 10 shows a season. They won't bog down your channel. R knights in my opinion the other channel I mentioned is bogged down in Babylon 5 it is long several years the seasons are long 20 plus shows a year and although popular was NOT widely popular. It shows in the view count on their channel. Its like 90% less on unpopular shows. Anyway good luck 👍

T
Target Audience · April 23, 2024

Thanks for the advice it’s well taken. One thing that I’ve learned from doing this for a few years is comparing individual channel’s results on what they react to is almost meaningless. What’s being reacted to is only one factor of countless others and I wouldn’t even put it high on the list. For any show or movie with reactions that have a high amount of views you can find a number of channels with very low views reacting to the same thing. The show has to have the audience out there obviously, but getting them to find your videos and then come back to your videos is not related very much to the show at all.

S
Scarpad’s Domain · April 23, 2024

Babylon 5 especially seasons 2-4 are in your mutherfracking wheel house I liked Battlestar but was so disappointed in decisions they made in season 3 and beyond, I love B5, for me it’s up there with Trek

W

I would agree with that. They should wait to watch Babylon 5 in release order along with Star Trek. It would be pretty fun seeing those side-by-side.

A
Alecco · April 23, 2024

Dark is a masterpiece and I would love to see your reaction to it. last two seasons of expanse are super boring. galactica has enough reactions already. Stargate and babylon 5 are the only 2 sci-fi series I am interested in.

J
Jonathan · April 23, 2024

The Wire would be good if you were looking for something to give you a variety away from sci-fi that might bring you new viewers.

T
TanyoScatto · April 23, 2024

I think stargate sg-1 is the closest thing to star trek in terms of tone and style, i watched it over a decade after finishing all of star trek, and i was surprised how much it FELT like what i used to watch. that being said, the expanse is just an incredible show, best scifi tv in years

E
EnigmaticPenguin · April 23, 2024

I really like the idea of you guys watching BSG because A) You're familiar with the 1970's series. B) A majority of your content is intense discussion and not straight up reactions. BSG provides a rich springboard for your content you wouldn't get with all those shows.

M
Moonlander · April 23, 2024

Although I don't expect either to win this poll, it gladdens my heart to see Mad Men and The Wire up for consideration

P

Amen. They go up there as my favorite TV, next to STNG.

WRITE-IN VOTES * Dark Matter * Doctor Who * Pushing Daisies * Tales of the Gold Monkey * Travellers

Dark Matter was pretty great, and also fairly short. There was also Killjoys around the same time.

I
Ian Westcott · April 23, 2024

Tough options. I haven't seen most of those, but those that I HAVE seen: Space: 1999 has some really big highs and really low lows. Think TNG Season 2 on steroids. BSG (2004): Excellent through the first 2.5 seasons, then it drops off. The Wire: Solid all the way through. Game of Thrones: One of the best shows ever through the first 4 seasons, then it drops off. Westworld: I liked it, but the writing is very frustrating. They really try to confuse you so you wonder what's next. Worked for awhile, then it's just a gimmick. Honorable mentions go for two of my personal reactor favorites: Breaking Bad (excellent start to finish) and Lost (a bit uneven. Starts strong, dips in quality, picks way up again, but crashes in the final season. Crashing towards the end is a big problem that a LOT of series feature. I don't know how much your tolerance is for that).

J
John M. · April 23, 2024

The Wire is the best show on this list by miles. And I’d like it for the genre switch up.

L
Lost Monk · April 23, 2024

I will say this..... there's a reaction channel with over 500 subscribers (including me) that is devoted ONLY to Babylon 5.... and they'll be finished with the series in a matter of weeks. Those patrons might want fresh reactors for their Babylon 5 addiction.

T

Starfleet · April 23, 2024

SPACE 1999 had the best special effects :)

E
Ed Eckhardt · April 26, 2024

Agreed. Especially taking into account there was no CGI back then. Extraordinary miniature effects. Frankly I was surprised to see this one on the list. One of my favorites!

N
North · April 23, 2024

Of those listed, my most wanted is Babylon 5, the one I think you'll have the most fun with is Farscape, and the best written is The Wire (warning - it's excellent TV, but man, it will stomp your soul into the pavement). So them's the votes.

f
fatproduce · April 23, 2024

Babylon 5 is also going to have a bunch of recognizable character actors who also worked on Star Trek in the 90s that I think y'all will appreciate. It was very much the scrappy underdog of 90s scifi that really punched above its weight class.

M
MertzRocks · April 23, 2024

Yet another ringing endorsement that is 100% true AND 100% fact. ...and it's REALFACT, not GOODFACT...

P
Paul Sage · April 23, 2024

This poll is asking a bunch of Sci Fi nerds to recommend another show, which means it will likely lean Sci Fi. That said, I think the Wire is as good as television has ever been and therefore, it wins my vote.

P
Paul Rymer · April 23, 2024

Spencer Loften · April 23, 2024

Westworld is a great show if you pretend that it ended after the first season.

I
Ian Westcott · April 23, 2024

Super agree. Eventually Westworld's writing got "obscure for the sake of being obscure, complicated for no reason than to trick the audience, not because it's a better way to tell the story." It's the ultimate mystery box series, and not in a good way. Seasons 2-4 you are basically slogging through the middle of the season, just waiting for the big reveal that you know is coming that will finally let earlier episodes in the season make sense.

S
Stephen Fenton · April 23, 2024

F
Firekrys FWO · April 23, 2024

I'm gonna go with the less popular choices. I'd think you'd like Eureka. I love that series. It's a nice look at futuristic technology with a sheriff that's a 'fish out of water'. First season is more humorous, but later seasons are better written. Sherlock is great, but you'll enjoy it more if you are familiar with the Holmes stories.

Laughing Man Productions² · April 23, 2024

Damn, this is a hard poll. I know we can vote for multiple, but I really want to see the BSG reaction continue. Honorable mentions for me though are SG1 (10 freaking seasons, and Atlantis and Universe are also really good), B5, The Expanse, and Farscape (doesn't get enough recognition). As much as I love Star Trek, The Expanse is miles better. It's hard sci-fi, sci-fi based more within actual physics so you don't see a lot of the contrivances that exist in Trek and the stakes become higher because of that. SG1, overall, is just a great goofy show that has a lot of depth. There is a reason it ran 10 seasons and I am sure that they could have squeezed another season or two out of it if they wanted to. B5 is B5, not much I can add. Very Trek in tone for the most part but its age shows a bit more in the visual quality. Farscape is another goofy show that has many serious moments/story lines throughout. It is decidedly more dark-ish than Trek though; not as dark as a BSG. Still, I think BSG would be the best choice since it's fresh in your minds right now.

Battlestar has better production value, while Babylon 5 has better writing and performances. Also in my opinion Babylon 5 is the more consistently good overall show.

M
MertzRocks · April 23, 2024

Imho, the performances in B5 range from the absolute highest "BEYOND STELLAR" to "wftwazzat?" But the writing usually saved those few 'bad' actors' bacon. To me, the performances in BSG are more balanced and overall better in comparison. The writing - Oh yeah, B5 wins - mainly because it was all done (95%+) by ONE MAN named JOE. Those episodes that are lacking are the episodes where Joe was burning out from so much work interweaving his vision and rewriting it when necessary. His genius was in creating 'outs' (contingencies) for the possibilities of cast changes. Now all that is not to cast aspersions on the writing for BSG; it's top-tier as well. In fact the fact that many writers contributed can give BSG a freshness from ep to ep that B5 sometimes lacks. B5 production value also improves as it goes along. Watch an ep with 'yeah! space shit!' from S1 and then one from S4 and you'll se a difference. BSG is pretty consistent from miniseries to finale. Final note - Alex and Josh, I think you'll enjoy them both! As well as the current third place runner The Expanse. Oops I meant 4th. I'm sure you'll love the current #2 as well, I'm just not as well versed in Stargate SG1 or its 'sisters'. I lost interest after a while. Sorry SG1 fans....

Battlestar Galactica is truly great. However I truly believe they will enjoy Babylon 5 more as a whole. The care that went into the writing and performances are criminally underrated in Babylon 5.

Not that I want to tell you how to do your job, but I’d hate you to lock yourself into something loathsome for a full season. I’m sure people would accept a caveat if you wanted to only commit to a month at a time (as people joining Patreon specifically for a new show ought to have a month’s worth as Patreon bill’s monthly). Us subscribers are going to have to meet you half way and concede that you won’t like every single tv series ever made and that it’s not some sort of personal criticism if watching our favourite TV series of all time risks you slipping into a coma.

T
Target Audience · April 23, 2024

We get paid to watch TV, I’m sure we can get through a season of whatever. I appreciate your concern though. If we didn’t connect with it at all then I’m sure it would show in the content and there wouldn’t be any interest in us continuing beyond a few episodes anyway.

B5 simply because it blends so well with Trek. At least it did for me, since often they aired back to back where I was.

The Wire is an excellent show. Some amazing characters to meet with endless topics of discussion. I rewatch it once a year and I still laugh and tear up every time. At least watching a few clips or the first 15 min is worth it, and you'll probably be hooked :)

P
Potatonano · April 23, 2024

Alot of good choises, but I have to vote for SG-1. I grew up watching both Star Trek and Stargate I feel that they complements each other in a strange way. And the fact that some actors appear in both universes makes it extra enjoyable sometimes.

I was on the fence between SG-1 and BSG (2004) but went with BSG because it hits the ground running where SG-1 takes longer to get really good. And honestly SG Atlantis is my favorite out of that franchise.

Babylon 5 is terrible, especially the first season, and I can't stand the later doctor, but I love it. I actually never finished the series bc I got to a cliffhanger episode and didn't want to go into the next episode not knowing how the cliffhanger resolved, but then I didn't like the resolution and I couldn't bear to go forward, so I've been sitting in that limbo for the last 20 years, the VHS tapes just getting dusty on a shelf. I've read all the episode summaries; I just couldn't bear to see it play out.

I recently watched all of SG-1 for the first time (besides catching an episode here or there randomly when it was first aired) and ended up really enjoying it. It feels like they had more 'fun' with it compared to the movie, and some great actors (Christopher Judge) make it fun to watch.

K
Ken R · April 23, 2024

Awww, Peaky Blinders can't even get a single vote. Such a good show with an incredible cast , but it can't get any respect outside of the UK it seems. GoT started out so good it entered the discussion for best show of all time, and then the later fanfic seasons happened followed by the producers intentionally killing it early because they thought they were now superstar showrunners with even bigger things ahead of them. Only fitting that that decision is what ruined their reputations.

T

To Be Continued? · April 23, 2024

You might want to wait on B5 until you've hit S3 DS9. Only then will it make any sort of sense. Watch Sliders before SG1, But watch SG1 with Farscape. You guys might get a kick our of Alien Nation: the Series. You don't even have to watch the movie, it's pretty much recapped.

M
MertzRocks · April 23, 2024

Alien Nation has practically been forgotten! Even I forget sometimes. Another, and I'm not really suggesting this one - especially not over Alien Nation - but let's not forget the series V, which has two incarnations. Neither is stellar, but neither was dreck either. Just curious why B5 wouldn't make any sense unless one has seen DS9 S3...??

J
John · April 23, 2024

I voted Babylon 5, The Expanse, Battlestar Galactica, and Farscape, because all four shows are in my top four shows of all time, and I think some non Trek science fiction of the 90s/2000s would be a good fit for the channel.

T

Joseph Spiros · April 23, 2024

I think it would be great for you to react to the first two seasons of Sliders. But if you're commiting to the whole show, I don't know if my conscience will allow me to vote for it. There's a reason almost the entire cast is gone and replaced by the end of that show. But, really, the first two seasons... definitely worth it. And it's a show that doesn't get much attention these days, perhaps in part because of how far it fell, so you could fill a hole in the market. EDIT: This is a repost of the comment above that was accidentally removed due to an error, but apparently not before you guys replied to it. Anyway, given that your reply stated that you'd only commit to a season at a time, my conscience is clear. I have voted for Sliders, and Babylon 5 (which unlike Sliders does not require any disclaimer as to quality).

W
Will Sofer · April 23, 2024

Reminds me of Gene Roddenberry’s “Earth: Final Conflict. Was fantastic early on. By the end of the series, it was just two members of the early ensemble cast left, and it was a completely different show. Honestly, it’s so much like the writing and direction of later Sliders, it’s hard for me to not lump the two together in my mind. Such interesting premises for a show, ruined by network intervention and hack writing.

K
KatWithAttitude · April 23, 2024

I'm not going to vote. I do own GoT and I don't have the complaints about that a lot of other people do, but I don't know if it would be a good fit for the channel. I have very little to no interest in any of the other choices.

Perhaps you have a special occasional segment where you only watch a show’s pilot, and like the networks of the day decide if it should make “full series” or not. For example, you could just watch the Breakaway episode of Space: 1999.

The Expanse and Battlestar Galactica would be great to watch. There's quite a few other YT 'reactors' that I've watched react to those series and you'd pull in viewers from the YT algorithm on those shows. BSG was probably the best sci-fi show made at the time it was on. I think The Expanse has taken that crown as the best sci-fi show out there now. Both are great serials with good stories. Sherlock is great because each episode is like a feature film (3 per season) with 2 awesome actors in the lead.

M
Michael Ducharme · April 23, 2024

The Expanse was a great show, but for me it took too long to get going. My husband and I got into BSG right off the bat and were fans throughout. For the Expanse, we started watching it once and stopped in Season One because it wasn't very good. It was only after people told us that "it starts getting really great in Season 3/4" that we gave it another chance. But it did feel like a bit of a slog. A few times when were in Season 2 or so he said to me "do we have to keep watching this?" and I replied "people tell me it gets really fantastic later if we get to that". And it did, and we loved it. But it was a slog to get there...
