    I like invasion, paired with Lost it makes for a great 2 hours of tv.

    You should have put Battlestar Galactica. I don't watch it, but it seems to get rave reviews and has a strong following.

    They used to have a show that was a kind of tales from the crypt/outer limits type of show I think it was called Night Terrors or something, but cant remember.. I really liked that show, but Sci Fi canceled that thing after a few shows..

    Well, considering I've never heard of any of those shows, I'll have to say X-Files. :p

    I think RR was refering to the 'rest' as the shows NOT on Sci-Fi Friday, Battlestar Galactica and the two Stargate shows.

    That said, I've never seen an episode of any of the shows listed. I don't give a sniff to most shows until I know that they will have legs and last for several seasons. And I agree, it was too bad about Firefly. You never know- it may show up on Sci-Fi as a new series soon.

    I've seen at least one episode of each - not really impressed.

    Why is it that I don't recognize any of these shows? I'm an absolute Sci Fi fanatic, and have been since the late '50's. I guess I just don't surf channels as much as I used to. I finally got my wife to dig Rome, on HBO... that's as SF as she'll get! ;)

    Wasn't there a great series a couple of decades ago called The Nightstalker?

    Battlestar Gallactica is the best Sci Fi on TV right now.

    I don't get the sci-fi channel :(, but I've heard this show is really, really good. I am very much interested in watching it, but am curious why is it so good.

    Does it have continuity from episode to episode (like one long story)? Is it mainly a show about some kind of space war? Good character development? What makes it stand out.

    Yes, It is the remake of the original series. The special effect is much much better than the original series of course. It is one continue story of the human colony against the robots they created. Oh, some of the robots looks very human.
