Keen Eddie, Better Off Dead, and of course Firefly.
Recently binged The Prisoner, which is an absolute delight
Twin Peaks
Reddit and Firefly ca. 2013

You can’t take the sky from me.
I’ll be in my bunk.
“Define interesting.” “Oh god oh god, we’re all gonna die?”
Canada’s Worst Driver…
And Canada’s Worst Handyman…
Honestly I’ll watch anything hosted by Andrew Younghusband at this point
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.
Are You Being Served
Am still upset that Colony never got another season or two. Or at least a proper ending.
Otherwise? The Expanse.
Columbo, maybe?
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.
The title sequence is almost Columbo.
I’ve not confirmed this, but apparently there is a large time shift in the books at roughly the end of the show, so they sort of left the door open for continuing it when the actors have realistically aged.
Or maybe I’m just coping.
I didn’t realize that ran for 100 episodes. I dropped it after one, but it must have gotten better.
The whole first season is kinda a low rent monster of the week show. Then there’s a few seasons that cohere around sci-fi trope A that are worth the watch, then the last season or two revolve around sci-fi trope B and I basically kept watching just to finish it.
Firefly was nice. So was the OA. And the one following up after Dark. Good stuff, killed off too soon.
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.
Not as old, but cancelling American Gods was a shame
Came here to say I just started Firefly!
Lucky, you get to see it for the first time.
Shiny!
Babylon 5 is great for those looking for a series.
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
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?
Preach.
I think it’s time for another rewatch.
