    Silence/Forrest is the fourth series. Blink is in the third series. Human Nature is from the third series.

    Also, there's The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances from Series 1.

      Blind allegiance to SciFi channel shows merely because they are on SciFi. Or SyFy, whatever the fuck. *Disclaimer: I have not seen a single episode of the new Battlestar Galactica.

      Joss Whedon. Period. Although I do like that he currently looks like an insane hobo. I watched probably four or five full seasons of Buffy and I still don't understand why the show is so loved.

        Wow, you really should check out BSG if you dig SciFi. One of the better shows in the last 10 years imo.

          I used to have this friend I would banter with online. He's dead to me now.


          Seriously. Get on that stat! Just Netflix the mini. If you aren't hooked after that, then you won't ever get into the show.

            I never tried Battlestar because a)it was a SciFi original show and b) it was Battlestar Galactica. I really do need to get a Netflix subscription, though. I think it'd be worth it just for all the TV shows I could burn through while I work out. I figure my $10/month (or whatever it is) Netflix subscription will make up for the bajillion magazines my wife subscribes to.

            Plus I'll be able to participate in the 360 party viewing thing when it goes live on August 11.

              Gotta echo not getting what is so great about BSG.

                  Exactly. Just saying, check out the mini series. Honestly, if that doesn't hook you in, you don't like Science Fiction.

                    Grave - I am not into SciFi, but I loved Battlestar. Definitely give it a chance.
                    If I were Shé, do you think I'd be operating a taco truck? Shé brings hope. Shé rights the wrongs. Unfortunately, Shé is a myth.

                      I watched like three episodes and I just could not get into it. I tried, I really really did.

Bought it yesterday and STILL don't get it. Not bad but not the 2nd coming of Christ either. Also, sooooo long. I have no trouble with the LOTR EE, but had to take a break at the 2 hour mark.

                            It is the second coming. The book, not the film. The book is the 4-color second coming of 80s super cocaine Jesus.

                                Did you watch the entire mini series? I didn't think I was going to like it until after I watched that from beginning to end.
