The Prisoner. No doubt about it. I taped that whole series on audio cassettes with a Radio Shack portable recorder in the 1970s. It's the ultimate cult show.
Sadly, it is mostly unknown to modern audiences. I cosplayed as The Prisoner for several years at a regional SF convention, and only one person recognized me - but from the Simpsons parody rather than the original show!
You are Number 6!
Babylon 5. Babylon 5. Babylon 5.
Stop what you're doing and watch Babylon 5. There's nothing else like it, except DS9 lol. The CGI is terrible but you get used to it. The plot, the writing, the characters, the world building... It's just unparalleled even today.
On top of a lot of suggestions already here, I really dug Altered Carbon Season 1. Season 2 is good, but Season 1 really slammed it out of the park for me.
Agreed! I adored the first season of Altered Carbon. As you say, season 2 was still good, but in comparison to the first season it felt like a bit of a let down.
It's got to be Star Trek (Next Generation/Deep Space Nine/Early Voyager too) and Battlestar Galactica. I've tried watching The Expanse several times and I have no idea why I can't get into it - everyone recommends it!
There was this old miniseries directed by Steven Spielberg called Taken on the scifi channel. Another one I loved was The Lost Room.
Buffy is what I grew up with, and what I return to time and time again.
However - Sense8 and Fringe are very much close seconds if I was ranking.
Fringe, Continuum, BSG, Firefly, TNG, and SG1 are by far the best there was to offer. I rewatch Continuum atleast once a year at this point.
New shows: Silo and Peripheral are fantastic.
I liked Counterpart - J.K Simmons is brilliant in it, and the premise is really good.
I'm surprised no one's mentioned Lost in Space on Netflix. It's a fantastic show about the wonders and dangers of space exploration with great acting, amazing effects and follows a well-constructed story. Only 3 seasons and ends on a lovely little scene.
