They should do another poll after May 8th. It's all about recent memory and who actually takes a Wizard Magazine poll.

SPOCKFAN · April 29, 2009, 10:26:55 AM

It wasn't a poll. It was a list that the wriers and editors of the magazine came up with. It actually is a good read, and a great list. Just not in the order I would of picked. But thats to be expected.

Ahh - even less revealing then. Just a few guys coming up with their picks.

SPOCKFAN · April 29, 2009, 11:06:14 AM

exactly, but it was a fun article. they list and go over each of the 25 best and they have sidebars on shows that just missed and why, and an interesting sidebar listing their 10 most hated shows of all time(10. Small Wonder).
Also listed top animated shows.
Their top 5 Sci Fi shows of all time were
5. Battlestar Galactica
4. Buffy the vampire slayer
3. Star Trek: The Next Generation
2. The twilight zone
1. Doctor Who

Number 1, well doesn't suprise me, ;)

Geekyfanboy · May 06, 2009, 08:54:52 AM

Yeah I agree with alot of them.. but there were huge sci fi hits that were missing from the list... at least in my opinion.

SPOCKFAN · May 06, 2009, 09:56:07 AM

What are some of the series you think should be on the list? Just curious. I think Futurama should be on the list

Geekyfanboy · May 06, 2009, 10:31:18 AM

Farscape, Star Trek Deep Space Nine, Star Trek Voyager, Stargate just to name a few.

SPOCKFAN · May 06, 2009, 11:00:30 AM

Yeah I would put all of those ahead of Dark Shadows and The Dead Zone

Jen · May 06, 2009, 11:03:28 AM

Alias and Alien Nation should have be on the list (maybe they are?). And...were these guys Brits by any chance? ;) Doctor WHO is better than Star Trek? Pishaaaawww.

SPOCKFAN · May 06, 2009, 12:46:33 PM

I know right! Alias and Alien Nation did not make the list. It is an american magazine but maybe they have some british writers on staff.
Although I have to admit Doctor Who does seem to be a great show. I just started watching it

PepperDude · May 06, 2009, 02:46:08 PM

Hmm. . .were Supernatural and Highlander: The Series any good? Better than DS9 which didn't make the list?

I won't lie, I enjoy Doctor Who just a tad bit more than Star Trek--but I'm just a little bit biased because it is my first sci-fi love. :wub
