Are there any sci fi/fantasy/vampire fans out there?

[K8]

At the moment I'm through to series 3 of Battlestar Galactica and I absolutely love it.  Any US TV series coming up that I should try to catch?  And does anyone know what has happened to 'The Event' and 'Sanctuary'? 

[Killjoy]

New season of Sanctuary starts this Monday   I haven't actually watched the show, yet, though I was curious about it.  I like my sci-fi stuff, but just don't watch much TV and am usually disappointed by sci-fi TV shows, anyway. 

[RichJr]

Sanctuary is pretty cool. I'm more of a zombie guy myself.
I've seen over 1000 different zombie films shorts and cartoons. Check out the short series zombie roadkill hahahahaha

Series 1 of Sanctuary was way better than series 2, I'm hoping it will pick up a bit in series 3.

The only Zombie film I enjoyed was Sean of the Dead, but usually not into Horror much.

Did you catch the single season of Firefly?  Great show and I heard it will be coming back, but on the Science channel.

I certainly did (and the final film 'Serenity') and I downloaded them all (naughty, naughty  ) and made them into my own Firefly DvD collection.  Firefly was fantastix.

Lol, BIG sci-fi fan here also..... think one of my fave series of recent years has to be Dollhouse......but I enjoy Warehouse 13, Sanctuary (Season 3 is great), Loved Babylon 5 etc etc I have a couple of thousand pre-recorded Vids and DVD's, mainly Sci-Fi and Martial Arts films.

Thanks for giving me a couple of things to look out for 

[Khan]

You must watch Eureka... it's a bit spoofy but a great show IMO.. I'm a little upset that they canceled Torchwood and Sara Jane Chronicles (yep.. I liked that kids' show, I was floored when I learned she died), just about anything to do with the Doctor.

[RichJr]

Eurika is hella great watchin. I want Carter's house!

[Killjoy]

Ha, I forgot about Eureka.  It's a little campy, as are many other Syfy channel shows, but I do catch an episode now and then 

Warehouse13 was another good one.  Anybody know when the next season of that starts up?

[Khan]

Anybody know when the next season of that starts up?

Next month, I believe... back with more Eureka! ooh... the Doctor's on tonight on BBC America! almost forgot.

[Killjoy]

Cool 

A few years ago, it used to be you could look on a show's website and know when the next season starts months in advance, but nowadays it seems they don't announce the next air date until a few weeks before hand, if at all . . .

[Steve386]

No more Doctor until September

I was really into Stargate Universe until they cancelled it.

Currently enjoying the new Camelot series.

Have you watched Fringe, that is really good.

Steve.

[Catra]

I watch ALL of the above..  Very funny..  I also love Haven.  Not really syfy, just suitably weird..  Bizare happenings in a small town, like really weird, snowing in summer, body stealing, splitting roads etc.. 

[Tigara]

Another fan here!! I enjoy all the sci fi stuff. Also a big vamp fan. Hooked on the Twilight/ Being Human/ and Vampire Diaries Series. 

[RichJr]

Good show too. Definitely on the sci-fi side.

[K8]

Have you watched Fringe, that is really good.

Yeah I loved Fringe although I'm still trying to get my head around the ending, if Peter never existed then why were Walter and Walternate in the same room at the end. 

Kate

[gearheadnick]

Not one mention of Lexx? I downloaded it not too long ago so I could watch it in order, makes for a much better story that way.

[WHITEE1987]

Love sic-fi and vampire flicks. Not really into the series cosmi hate the whole waiting a week for the next episode. But films I am all for. Recently watched a vamp flick called priest. Wasn't bad actually. Old skool vampires not those namby pamby human ones!!

[drahcir]

loved lexx. netflix has all the seasons. another good one was farscape

[Khan]

Farscape rocks... too bad all the good ones get canceled or "changed" (or moved to channels that I pay no attention to)... I started to like alot of shows, like Night Rider (the new one.. still a fan of the odl one), the Bionic Woman (the new one), etc.  I didn't care too much for BSG (only because of over acting and it was a pale imitation of the origional... and I abhore the over use of flash-backs), but I did like Caprica (gone before it's time IMO).

[drahcir]

I can see why they did away with farcsape after 4 seasons it started to get repetative. And the season 4 ending just pissed me of

[Khan]

Well... Farscape wasn't for everyone, at least it was better than Seinfeld (that was nothing but the same thing over and over again), then there was Sliders, My Secret Identity, and (dating myself here) Greatest American Hero; all good shows, but quite repetitive. Even Doctor Who has had a few remakes of previous episodes, albeit good remakes.
  As for the last episode.. I happened to like the Peacekeeper Wars (the last few episodes), kinda brought everything together and made a proper ending of it all.

[drahcir]

havnt seen the peacekeepers wars

[Khan]

havnt seen the peacekeepers wars

then you missed the last few episodes... you should really see them.  great ending for the show.

[Nishka]

im a sci/fi head as well and a big anime head too... im more on the star trek/ star wars side not crazy into vampire shows tho i think Buffy just ruined that whole thing for me LOL   i saw u all talking about farcape... that was a fun show, Sliders was great too back in the day... just wanted to pop in and hey say hello 

[drahcir]

just got finished watching a great anime series. last excile. it has this steam punk vibe abut it.

[Nishka]

just got finished watching a great anime series. last excile. it has this steam punk vibe abut it.

thats a great anime... i havent gotten through the whole series but what i did watch i loved.....right now im into hack/sign which is a few years old but so good, Noir sooo good its about to kick ass chicks with a great story line. not crazy girly at all...u should check it out im sure u could find an episode online....Witch hunter robin was a good series too...so many to name i have a huge collection...if u ever want to talk anime im your girl over here 

[drahcir]

Iam a big anime fan.  Another good one I just finished was Basilisk. which is about two fueding ninja clans in 1614. Iam just glad that netflix started putting some good ones on. I was spending about 2-3 hundred every pay check on movies. Only problem with netflix though they have a lot of crap anime on insta play and I dont feel like getting dvds sent to my house. But I prbably will since the neon genisses evangelion series is DvD. Also the anime Trigun has a new movie coming out called badlands rumble. Its been out in japan but it will be in theaters in the US and Canada in june/july. One thing that might suck is they are making a live action cowboy bebop and a live action ghost in the shell. Why must they do that. Iam a movie/anime nut. but not to the point were Iam dressing up and going to conventions

[StevieD]

I quite liked the live action Crying Freeman... thought they handled it pretty well. Not handled quite so well, but still an enjoyable 'live action cartoon' was Fist Of The North Star.

[Nishka]

The live action movies are never that great... I wouldnt get dresses up either but I dint hate on the cosplay girls they are fun to look at...

[drahcir]

yeah I dont mind the cosplay girls either.

[K8]

Just started watching Falling Skies - superb, anyone else watched it?

Kate

[Nishka]

yeah I dont mind the cosplay girls either.

im totaly staight and i love them... so fun

[Killjoy]

Just started watching Falling Skies - superb, anyone else watched it?

Kate

I watched it last night.  Wasn't bad, but I just wasn't in the mood for it at the time

[RichJr]

"Darker than black" is a good anime. It's on netflix too.

[drahcir]

never got into darker than black. Iam just got finished with trinity blood and now watching moribito. I might try darker than black after this series. another good one is shiguri death frenzy. I own that one. Its one of the few animes I bought without knowing anything about it. Thats the one thing with animes if your going to buy them make sure you try to watch a couple episodes before you buy it. I have a couple that are complete crap but I got them cheap being that they were used. Also word around is they are making a third seaon of Ghost in the shell S.A.C. If that is true I cant what for that. 

[RichJr]

I haven't tried moribito.
Gun x sword is good too. I love mechs especially when their few so when they come out it's exiting.
Netflix is great. I only need cable for bleach.

[drahcir]

Netflix has bleach on insta play. I looked it up to make sure.

[RichJr]

Ya but it's not hd and not the new ones and subtitled. 

[drahcir]

that's the one thing I don't like about netflix most of its dub and not sub. I love sub. All the DvDs I have I never watch them with dub always sub. maybe I should start another poll sub or dub. Its gotten to the point I can understand some Japanese. I was shocked when I went to watch Inu yashi and it was sub. It took me 2 weeks to watch all 170 episodes of the regular series.

[K8]

I watched it last night.  Wasn't bad, but I just wasn't in the mood for it at the time

Try and watch it when you 'are in the mood' - hopefully you'll enjoy it more.  "Death to the Skitters" lol

Kate

[RichJr]

I'd rather dub cause I don't like rewinding over and over either to catch a word I missed or a part of the action.

[drahcir]

right now I like dub cause I can be on here and still sort of pay attention to whats going on

[RichJr]

Yea works great if your a multi tasker

[Nishka]

i vote sub as well... the dubbed voices drive me crazy... even kung fu films, always sub.... yet another love of mine

[drahcir]

just started watching claymore. Have been putting off watching this for a while now but sine its on my new best friend netflix Iam giving it a go. I have to say Iam liking it. I can usually tell if I like an anime in the first 10min. of watching one.

Good selection there FatBasta, I actually cried real tears when Buffy ended    Head over heels in love with Spike but when I saw the actor again in Caprica I couldn't believe how much he had aged.

Kate

[johndk]

I have used way too  much time on 
 
Babylon 5
Battlestar Galactica
Stargate Atlantis
Stargate SG-1
Stargate Universe
Doctor who all the new seasons
Torchwood
Primeval

But i would do it again if i could find the time

[RichJr]

^^^ are you and Winston brothers too

[K8]

I heard that there was not going to be a Season Two of Camelot.  Why oh why do they bring these great programs out and then cancel the %$@#+*& things. 

Kate

[FatBasta]

I couldn't agree with you more Kate, not about Camelot cause I haven't seen it, but the cancellation of so many really good shows.
Most recent disappointment was Stargate Universe, canceled after two meager seasons and to top it off, it was left hanging with no closure as to what will happen.

[Pit Vaper]

Huge sci-fi fan myself, I have watched at least 99% of the programs listed in this thread.

[RichJr]

A other they shouldn't have canceled is heroes. That p1ssed me off.

[drahcir]

Survivors was a good BBC show( on netflix insta play). Its about a virus that pretty much kills everybody. And then there was another good American show Kings that got the ax before it should have.

[K8]

Aye Survivors was brill, (the original version and the remake) haven't watched Kings yet.  I too am p1ssed off with 'Game of Thrones' - only 10 episodes and now we have to wait until April 2012 for the next 10 (if we're lucky) 

Kate

[FatBasta]

Kate, you have to think about Game of Thrones like eating at a fancy restaurant, the portions are small but the taste is magnificent!!
Hang in there! We're all in the same boat.

Yeah I know but I'll forget to look for it on SideReel come April 2012

You should create an account at myepisodes.com, it's a site that helps you keep track of the episodes you've watched from different shows and it tells you when they air.

I've been using it for years and it's just really, really handy!

[Killjoy]

I've got to check out Game Of Thrones.  I thought the title was just coincidence, I only just recently found out it's based on the book and I've heard it holds quite true to the storyline.  HUGE George RR Martin fan, here 

[K8]

Thanks FatBasta - I've just signed up an account,  looks like exactly what I need  and killjoy Game of Thrones is just awesome.

Kate

[blushdrip]

Warehouse 13 ... in three more days.... I love Artie.
