of what they claim are the top 50 TV science fiction and fantasy shows

Too many to list here, but here are their Top 25, with number 1 as the
best of all time:

Well - no. I can't stand Star Trek. I know - the nostalgia, etc... but
this is just cheesy and kitsch.

Yes

Even worse than TOS. So politically correct it was almost propaganda.

This is a joke ?

And their list loses its credibility right here.

The re-imagined thing is "anti-science fiction".
Haven't they heard? Moore & Eick are all
whiney about people not watching because
they got stuck with the horrible title that
screams "sci-fi".

P.S. They need to swap #2 with #35.

"Of all time"!?!?!

It's a bit premature to do such a list. There's two Star Wars TV shows
in the near future and who knows what else before the end of time. ;-)
