Other smaller things worth watching are #DarkMatter and #VagrantQueen, especially if one liked #Firefly. Likewise #Farscape, although again this is far too long for one evening, especially if one liked the Stargates and some of the universe building in Riddick.

#SpacePrecinct is forgettable, although the #AlienNation series was alright (as was the #RoboCop telly spin-off, apparently, but I never saw it); but #MaxHeadroom and #DarkAngel are better if one is looking for near-future urban stuff.

Definitely watch Dark Angel if you like the Hitman and Salt movies and want to see how a telly series with #JessicaAlba got there years before and explored the ideas in a lot more depth.

There were 21st C remakes of #BionicWoman and #TheInvisibleMan that are under-remembered. For the latter: Of course the USPS has a secret service. (-:

So I'm finally figuring out what YouTube was *really* invented for ... bringing you documentaries about the convoluted fates of long gone SF TV shows you had enjoyed decades ago - like #AlienNation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CQhphu3VjE

You should give #AlienNation a try, either the film or the series (preferably the film, then the series as well). Of course, it has nothing to do with the Alien(s?) series of films, the name just reminded me of it.

Don't ask me where it's streaming. Arrr, or something. Ess Tee You Vee, I dunno.
