Strange new Worlds. I think it's the best Star Trek series since the original. I don't think the casting is particularly great, but Anson Mount makes up for it. Like William Shatner was born to be Captain Kirk, Anson Mount was born to be Captain Pike.

They Cloned Tyrone is a surprise for me. Great modern scifi/blaxploitation film, though I have about 30 minutes left to finish.
Finally finding the time to finishAndor and what the fuck?! How is it so good???
Andor is SOOOOO GOOD. Andy Serkis straight up made me cry. (I have the last couple of episodes still to go so no spoilers pls lol)
But the characters, the writing, the acting, the storylines and the theeeeeemmes omg. It's like a dramatic embodiment of Seeing Like a State.
I'm sorry, you're only allowed to say "what the fight? How is it so good???"
But otherwise, yeah - it's a show that really benefits from tight plotting, dedicated performances, an excellent score and some Tony Gilroy & Friends bangers for speeches. I kind of have to stop myself re-watching it (for the millionth time)
I've been binging Lower Decks and looking forward to the new season, it's really a solid show and is definitely more than it seems.
I’m watching Foundation (just started, so I’m on s01e01!), Silo, and I’m planning to rewatch Babylon 5.
Foundation is great. I’m enjoying the hell out of it. Silo was really good too
Currently watching Farscape. Such a bonkers show. About to finish second season.
YES! it's so rare I find anyone else who's seen farscape. only tv show I wish I could see again for the 1st time.
I think I've watched it completely at least four separate times; I love it so much. It's just such good fun.
Harvey was the best.
Please do watch the expanse 😉 but the first season can be a little slow at least the first half of the season.
Slow but absolutely necessary. As the stakes grow bigger, knowing the players that well pays off so good.
Yup can confirm. I after the last season of the expanse, I really had to just read novels. Me who hardly read books after age of 25. It's just so good. Expanse physics is relatively speaking so realistic. No magical convinient inertia or gravity.
There not being anymore Firefly is always sad whenever I think about it. I noticed there was a series of books when I was in the bookstore the other day. I have no idea if they are directly related or not. It must at least be in the same universe.
Man, I wish to see more of The Expanse
I just started The Expanse and also just learned it got cancelled. I'm hoping by the time i finish it it'll be picked back up.
It was canceled by Syfy, but then picked back up by Amazon. I haven't finished it myself yet but I'm pretty sure they ended the show. That's different from getting cancelled.
The problem is that the show ends before the end in the books. There's still material for other 3 seasons I think.
There is, but the challenge is 30 years passes where they left off at the end of Babylon's Ashes and before Persepolis Rising starts. They really rushed Babylon's Ashes too since they knew they were getting cancelled.
That being said I REALLY want them to finish out the show. It's so good.
Mid-way through the second series of Dark. It is consuming me. It's so well done, there's not even time to consider plot holes.
Currently watching Second season of Foundation. And also started watching 3rd rock from the sun.
Rewatching Westworld, the first season was truly a masterpiece.
I watched Silo on my 3-month free trial to Apple TV. Great show, 100% recommend.
Started watching Farscape. I've only seen season 1 when it aired in Finland the first time. It's stuck with me ever since and while it certainly has a lot of problems, it holds up quite well as a camp scifi action show.
I'm watching Terminator - The Sarah Connor Chronicles. I don't know how I missed this back in 2008. It's real good.
Just finished Titans. Almost finished with Babylon 5 rewatch #14. Gets better every rewatch.
Looking forward to the last episodes of Silo.
I'm watching Blake 7. It's giving be a Tom Baker Dr. Who vibe.
Deep Space 9, first watchtrough, last season, 5 eps to go.
Can't wait to see how they wrap this up!
Currently re-watching The Orville for the 100 somethingth time! Love the show so much!
Strange New Worlds has been dropping straight bangers
I've been working my through TNG. Watching every episode in order for the first time. I've always loved the show, but I only used to catch random episodes when they'd come on TV as a kid. Been slowly working my way through all of Trek for about two years. I started with ToS and it's movies, then watched The Animated Series.
Strange New Worlds, I've been watching as new episodes release, but when I heard the praise for the Lower Decks crossover, I decided to start and finish Lower Decks before I catch up on SNW. I'm about halfway through the second season of Lower Decks right now.
Discovery almost killed my interest in New Trek, but man the Orville and SNW really revived my love of Star Trek.
Once I finish Lower Decks, I'll get back up to date with SNW and keep working through TNG. Once I finish TNG, I think I'm gonna start Picard.
Oh, and I've also been keeping up with Futurama and recently watched Hello Tomorrow! And The Big Door Prize on Apple TV. They were both okay.
Good Omens, just finished like candy, Lexx, struggling, worth it ? compare to Andromeda S1...
Two episodes from finishing Silo. It's a solid 7/10 for me, so far.
Currently in the middle of season 3 of that 90s sci-fi show Sliders. The theme definitely, to me, goes from amazing in seasons 1 & 2 to what feels like more of a campy and more generic theme, but so far I am still enjoying the show.
Foundation and a re-watch of Rebels (so good!)
I’ve been watching Star Wars Rebels slowly over the last few months. I’m currently part way through season 4 and it’s some of the best Star Wars I’ve watched. Such a great series that I think some people won’t watch because they think it’s a “kid’s show”. I’ll have it done before Ahsoka starts next month and I’m glad I finally watched it.
And Chopper is by far my favourite character.
