Firefly, of course.

On the plus side, what Joss Whedon did to Wash in Serenity made me hate him long before the revelations of what an asshole he is came to light.

Recently binged The Prisoner, which is an absolute delight

Keen Eddie, Better Off Dead, and of course Firefly.

Reddit and Firefly ca. 2013

Ah old reddit...it used to be so good...

[–] gjoel@programming.dev 10 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Farscape. I never heard much, if anything about it in Denmark, but it's amazing. Good sci-fi great humor.

[–] cute_astronaut@feddit.dk 1 points 1 hour ago

I saw it a lot many years ago, and I agree that its good, don't know how much it holds up today though

Loved it as a kid and just started watching the whole series this week. Tried to get my wife to watch the Turkey Drop last night and she didn't look up from her phone once.

Better Off Ted is just so good. Only 2 seasons but tbh I doubt they could have kept the pace past maybe a third season anyway. As much as I want more it's kinda nice it burned brightly and shortly

My favorite part is when the octochicken comes down from its web.

I didn't realize that ran for 100 episodes. I dropped it after one, but it must have gotten better.

[–] original_reader@lemmy.zip 10 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

Am still upset that Colony never got another season or two. Or at least a proper ending.

Otherwise? The Expanse.

Columbo, maybe?

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

If you like Columbo, Poker Face is a spiritual descendant. It's honestly far better than I expected, and sometimes there's camera work that is intentionally straight from the 70s.

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 1 points 53 minutes ago

How many animals they gotta kill though?

The title sequence is almost Columbo.

Thks reminds me to rewatch Daria.

Daria is great! It's classic 90s and it's so good

[–] Jela@lemmy.today 2 points 3 hours ago

Canada's Worst Driver....

And Canada's Worst Handyman.......

Honestly I'll watch anything hosted by Andrew Younghusband at this point

[–] damnthefilibuster@lemmy.world 26 points 6 hours ago (5 children)

Firefly was nice. So was the OA. And the one following up after Dark. Good stuff, killed off too soon.

[–] bier@feddit.nl 4 points 1 hour ago

I don't know if it was really good or just how I remember it, but the first season of Heroes was great. It was such a shame they fucked it up so bad in the next season.

[–] Damage@feddit.it 2 points 3 hours ago

Not as old, but cancelling American Gods was a shame

I just got Kimmy Schmidt from the library. Any kind of Tina Fey show is going to be absolutely hilarious, looking forward to this one!

[–] MomoGajo@sh.itjust.works 18 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

Babylon 5 is great for those looking for a series.

[–] Naz@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

I've been watching that and Deep Space Nine.

DS9 is the more well known, but I think Babylon 5 was more hard sci-fi

They're both good

Farscape was also on TV way back then right after so it was amazing

[–] davepleasebehave@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I stopped B5 after the resolution of the shadow wars. which apparently only needed a plucky American to explain that that whole thing was pointless and they all just went away.

Seems pointless to continue after that.

Should I continue?

Max Headroom.

[–] MrFappy@lemmy.world 13 points 6 hours ago (5 children)

Stargate S-G1 is the shit. If you love sci-fi, that show is god tier.
