As hard as it is to pick one, probably ST:Voy
Though right now I'm hooked on SG-1 and Sanctuary

    I'm eve and I only just changed my picture then saw this. QUALITY!
    I like all sorts, being from London Dr Who rocks my world, but I'm going to cause a bit of controversy here.
    My fav although I haven't seen it in a while, is Babylon5.
    Who's gonna have my head on a stick?

    I've been a Trekky since the 60s, but never a serious one. I like all the StarTreks. Recently I started watching Enterprise. Good stuff.

    I also enjoy Babylon5 and StarGate. I haven't seen Sanctuary.

    Can any one answer this question? Why do they have so much ghost and horror stuff, which I don't like, lumped in with Science Fiction?

    Lately, I've been noticing groups of people staring at their cell phones and it reminds me of the Season 5, Episode 6: The Game
    (Original Air Date—26 October 1991). Wesley Crusher returns to the Enterprise on vacation from the Academy only to discover a mysterious alien game infiltrating and controlling the crew. It makes me think.

    Dr Who - hmmm
    I can't say I'm a huge fan, except of the current Matt Smith-River Song storyline, which is brilliant

    Babylon 5 I only vaguely remember :(

    @ Lori - no idea. I'm not a huge fan of horror either

    Enterprise was probably the one ST show I wish they hadn't made :)

    I've actually been thinking of the Computer and Siri ever since it came out. Too bad they couldn't use Majel Roddenberry's voice :)

  • Hello all, my name is Leah. I generally love science fiction adventure. I have read serial science fiction novels, comic books, and graphic novels. Of course, I fancy myself a movie buff. I loved the original Star Trek series, Battlestar Gallatica from back in the day. Current series that I like include Avatar, the last Airbender, Grimm, and the Big Bang Theory.:smile:

    Hi everyone, I'm Matt. I've loved Star Trek since I was introduced to it as a kid. I especially love Deep Space Nine. The darker storyline set during a bleak war was amazing. But I love any Star Trek.

    Hi hi, geek girl here and ST fan. Loved Voyager (re-watched it again recently on netflix, spectacular). Currently re-watching DS9 and enjoying it immensely. Other shows that peaked my interest were Babylon5, BS and Red Dwarf (though not in many years)

    Oh, also a big Doctor Who fan (10th Doctor FTW).

    Are Voy and DS9 on Netflix ? That may swing my decision making process :)

    Yep, both are on netflix, as are TNG and TOS (in HD!!)

    Just re-watched DS9 and really enjoyed it. TNG brings back memories but the early episodes are just a little too cheesy for me. I actually can't stand Kate Mulgrew in anything she does so Voyager is right out for me.

    To be honest I'm not sure where I first saw her. She seems to keep popping up in bit parts in tv shows. It was before voyager, though.

    My favorite is DS9, I just started from the beginning again, perhaps my 6th time round. I also loved the new Abrams film. But hey, they are all good.

    I liked them all, but wasn't a big fan of Enterprise. I just didn't care for the canon screw up. The new film is entertaining and I'm glad they're keeping the torch going. I'm hoping for a new anddecent TV show to come along for the series again.
  • My name is Hollie. (: I grew up with all of the Star Trek Series. <3 I have been watching them since as far as I can remember. Voyager and the Original Series are my Absolute favorites! &My favorite Star Trek Movie is Star TrekIV:The Voyage Home(: I am 18 years old and has been a Trekkie since like... well, birth. lol(: ^^ So, yeah. Nice to meet you all!

    I'm Jen, glad to discover this group.

    I love all the treks (except Enterprise, seemed like a formulaic copy of previous characters), my fave is DS9, I re-watch it every few years- like now!

    Loved BSG (the later one) soooo much.

    We get a couple of sci fi channels here, and have recently discovered the all the stargate series, we're watching Atlantis properly, up to season 4 so far. SG1 I dabble in. Eureka, warehouse 13, anything going! Except all that ghost hunter/paranormal reality show crap, how is that on a sci fi channel??

    All time faves are probably BSG and Firefly :sad:
  • I am Pat and I live in Omaha,NE

    I would have to say I connected with TNG and DS9 the most, but this was most likely due to them taking up much of my TV time during first run as a youth!

    Anymore I find myself as a fan of all the Stargate's, Doctor Who, Torchwood, and most of all at a loss for the lack of Sci-Fi on SyFy.
  • I am Chelle and I love all things Sci-fi. Voyager was my favorite Star Trek, Stargate in any version, Dr Who at any time, and odd movies like Galaxy Quest, Mars Attacks etc..

    Am from Texas

    I'm Carla from, PA, USA.

    I love TOS, always did always will. Watched reruns with my dad and it stuck. You know it's bad when my students know my room thanks to the ships of the line calender in it. But I love VOY too, I think there were missteps, but in general it had the feel of exploration and character relations that I love. I am a general sci-fi nerd too... but am currently into Alcatraz... which I know is drama but it has me hooked on mystery factor.

    Hi, I use Sci Fi as a kind of support for my life where I prepare food each day. The episodes I view help me keep my mind on topics other than what I might choose to eat because I am hungry.

    Hello, Scott here and I would have to say that TOS is my favorite, thou I do have all series and movies on DVD. Just started seriously trying to lose weight so I have my own Trek to make.

    I love anything that is science fiction: Firefly, Star Trek, Babylon 5 and even Stargate. :) It's all great.

    I guess I do prefer the ones where they go and experience new things though some are more like watching a science fiction novel come to life which is why I loved Firefly.
