Science fiction has spawned an incredible amount of television since the birth of network drama, some of it good, some of it bad, some of it excellent. This list focuses on ten of the best shows ever produced in the genre, in no particular order…
10. The Twilight Zone
Created by: Rod Serling
Seasons: 5
Debuted: 1959
This classic series of science fiction not only catapulted SF literature into the national spotlight, but also inspired films decades later and continues to do so. Indeed, the phrase The Twilight Zone is shorthand for an odd environment now.
9. Stargate SG-1
Created by: Jonathan Glassner, Brad Wright
Seasons: 10
Debuted: 2007
One of science fiction’s longest-running shows also has a certain sense of action and fun about it that makes it unique among the pantheon of other Nineties shows. The franchise is still continuing today in the form of Stargate Universe.
