Heh! The other side of the Atlantic from #TheLexx and #Farscape. (-:

Since this started out as an evening for @bytebro I rather had in the back of my mind the assumption that xe already knew about #StarCops, #Space1999, #TheTripods, #TheTomorrowPeople (Thames version), #TheTriffids (BBC version), and #Blakes7.

And #Torchwood is just across the … erm … tip of my tongue … named after something … Gulf Of Wales from Brizzle.

I'm not sure whether an evening of #TheSarahJaneAdventures would be @bytebro's cup of tea, though. But if it is, I'd then add #LightningPoint/ #AlienSurfGirls to the list.

If we are casting a net wide enough to encompass @bytebro not having even seen ST:TNG, there's a lot of scope.

I'm going to consider Stargate as similarly mass-market, and ignore the superhero things like the Arrowverse and Marvel.

#Babylon5 almost goes without saying. There's also #PersonOfInterest. Both of those are multi-season epics that will take more than a week, let alone an evening, but are mandatory. Fascism, war, resistance, good and evil not being what you think, spiritualism, civilisational suicide, AI, propaganda, and the surveillance state. Plus, you'll never look at 'reset button' stuff the same way again, after seeing things with season-long and series-long arcs.

#TheLexx, of course, just to find out that Sci-Fi can be a lot weirder than you think. (-:

I would like to point out that Tim Curry guest starred on an episode of #TheLexx (S1 E2).

It’s also the episode where this self-professed ‘alternative scifi’ show did a musical. 😄
