I pretty much agree with all of these, but I'd add Millennium as well.

I miss Millennium 
Edit: I liked their "review" of Firefly. I have friends who use the name Browncoats at every opportunity.

Wow, I didn't think anyone remembered The Phoenix! You're talking about that really old sci-fi show with the guy from Wrath of Kahn, right? That show was awesome.danlo wrote:Nowhere Man & The Phoenix!!!
And Nowhere Man kicked butt too.
I'd also add Brimstone. Really excellent show that Fox axed.

Sigh. Frank, how I miss ya, buddy.
Boy, that track takes you back ...
I had that as the Windows Start-up theme. And I had the Ouroboros sceensaver that counted down to the millennium. It went "doom doom", the "millennium drum sound", whenever the screen saver came on. Ah, the heady days of geekdom.

I have the first season of Millennium on dvd. Simply fantastic!! I remember it getting a bit weird as the seasons moved along. Too many definite answers to things for my tastes? I don't remember too many details, though. Been too long. Still, excellent stuff!

Millennium was a very creepy show. Had a brief X-Files cross-over called "millenium" of course.

It was terrible. There was a crossover done at the millennium aptly titled "Millennium". It featured Frank and Catherine Black, but had very little to do with the show and wrapped up no loose ends.
That said, I don't think there's been a better dramatic show on television than Millennium. Season One is the best, Season Two has a tendency to get bogged down in the weirdness of it's producer (Glen Morgan) and his love affair with his wife, Season Three does the best it can to clean up the mess left after Season Two.

Millenium and Nowhere Man....
yep, totally agree. The only shows in recent memory where I had to watch them every week. I don't have any show I do that for any more...

And I totally agree with that too, Cail. It blew smelly chunks...It was terrible. There was a crossover done at the millennium aptly titled "Millennium". It featured Frank and Catherine Black, but had very little to do with the show and wrapped up no loose ends.

Crap, not Catherine Black, Jordan Black, Frank's daughter.
It was a Friday night ritual at my house....X-Files at 8, Millennium at 9, Homicide: Life on the Street (another show that withered and died) at 10.
