You forgot War of the World series. Made 2 or 3 seasons as I recall
SeaQuest was a good show, but unlike outer space, the ocean is a limited topic. Not too many things you can do in a submarine.
Tek War was based on a series of books written by William Shatner who played Bascom in the series.
You forgot Cleopatra 2525. It was campy but it was good.
Do you read science fiction? There's a book called Barlowe's guide to extraterrestrials, good artwork in the book.
Total Recall 2070 was a prequel series set in 2070, the movie takes place in 2084.
Loved Millennium. I think it was just ahead of it's time.
His name is Roy Scheider, not Schneider.
I remember all of these, and more.
Max Headroom was a lot of fun. I dont think Buffy counts as science fiction, but if it does it was the top
it would be good if you could refer to some site where you can see the films as well that you are talking about!!!
Dannnng I totally forgot about Alien Nation!!!
Sea Quest ahead of its time
It’s Eric Pierpoint!!!!!
Aien Nation, MANTIS are pretty shitty pre-woke, woke shows, that's why they failed.
Mantis was utter poop 💩 the narrator really doesn’t know what there talking about
I don't know about you but i watch these Marvelous Videos for entertainment and not political commentary like you shoehorn into the alien nation description. Saying that homosexuals and transgenders are discriminated against is a lie and if anything these days have the controlling interest over media. If anything normal people like real everyday run of the mill people are being discriminated against and being targeted by hateful bitter people. Remember where you come from. If it wasn't for your parents you wouldn't even exist.
I've heard of all but 1 of these shows {Time Trax} & watched probably 1/2 of them. I ow Earth 2, Millennium & Space: Above & Beyond on DVD. Lots of great shows that just didn't get enough time in the spotlight
man these suck balls
:30 I didn't know Philip K. Dick was Arnold Schwarzenegger!!! 😉
I remember night man when I was a kid, and I couldn’t stop laughing at the one ending scene that’s in the clip here he just floats upwards slowly and actually goes slower towards the top of the screen then it cut to him flying through the sky! I’m so happy I’ve seen it again!
I was a huge Time Trax fan.
No Quantum Leap??
Tekwar was a great show on the sci-fi channel..
Most important video and comment section of my life!
A lot of TV series on this list, lasted, past, Two seasons! So, they had their chance. Unless the series debuted on FOX and ABC(which HATES Sci Fi's)(FOX, only The X Files is the exception), then those series should have gotten picked up, by another network.
So this list, is unfair, to those shows, that, only got one season. 'Super Force', lasted two seasons, however, that was one series, that totally flew under the radar. That should get have gotten the nod instead of Seaquest 2032. Seaquest 2032 was really popular in the 90s. It's lost because current networks choose not to pick it up/other reasons. is Most don't remember 'Super Force' at all!
Everyone complaining, i think this is a completely AI generated video, so… I mean some of these are great but some are less than the effort to start watching.
I think the actor playing Frank Black in Millennium was the sane guy as:
Unsolved Mysteries.
Awwww, I love Alien Nation… will have to see if I can check out Time Trax, and Seven Days
OMG.. Space Rangers! it was terrible, but I watched it… thanks for including it!
Space Rangers was the victim of bad timing because it premiered around the same time as Deep Space Nine and there was so much hype because it was the first Star Trek show not being set on the Enterprise. Babylon 5 premiered a tv movie in 93 but didn't become a series till 94 so the hype about DS9 had cooled down a bit. Being on CBS also set the standards too high for Space Rangers. Probably should have been in syndication. Cable original shows weren' that common either in 93 as well.
Seaquest was starting to get better by season 3 but viewers didn't want to give it a chance by then.
I remember the Tekwar game. A very strange shooter.
Sorry, couldn't get past the horrible AI script and the computer voice.

Bring back “Earth II”
I forgot about seven days.
Mantis was discontinued for racism? What a stupid thing to say, why would we have Sanford and Son, Good times, The Jeffersons,The Cosby show, Arsenio Hall, in living color etc, if we we're so racist? maybe it's just a bad show…..
No Phantom 2040? For shame.
I think these shows failed cuz kids in the 90s weren't big into scifi, we were more into actions/martial arts films, at least I was.
No VR5 ?
Parts of Dark Skies turns out to be true. Only it was a group with in the CIA who killed JFK, on the orders of Majestic 12. Kennedy intended to share all recovered Alien Tech with the USSR, and go to the Moon together in a joint USA & USSR mission.
MJ12, could not allow this.
Seaquest 2032 is a dream come true thanks for exposing me to this gem!!!
Seriously? You listed only shows I definitely don't miss.
I enjoyed some of these shows back in the day. One I miss is Space: Above & Beyond.
LOL. Roy SchNeider, you say?
Nobody talks about how live action ruined aeon flux….way worse than ghost in the shell
Science fiction is a long time genre…lol….😅😅😅
