Burn the land, boil the sea...

I have now sen everything ever put to film regarding Firefly and/or Serenity.

I am extremely happy to have experienced it all, and look forward to reading the comic book mini-series (sitting in my box as we speak).

And as I reflect upon Firefly, I am forced to think of all the other short-lived Fox Network sci-fi shows that were absolutely incredible and have devoted cult followings.

The X-Files
Space: Above & Beyond
Alien Nation
Dark Angel
Harsh Realm
VR5

These are the only ones I can think of right now, but it is now my belief that Fox Television has produced some of the finest sci-fi ever to grace the small screen, even if it is in such small portions. And I am shocked that Fox doesn't have any sci-fi on their schedule right now, in what some are calling a "Science Fiction Renaisance" thanks to shows like "Lost".

Anyone care to dredge up some stinker from the vaults that I've forgotten about? Or know of a current sci-fi program on Fox that I've somehow overlooked in the curent schedule?

Also, I'm pretty sure Sliders started out on Fox, since I watched it in college and we were too broke to have anything but the 23-channel cable that came with out apartment. That cable certainly did not come with the SciFi network, I tell you. In fact, other than the broadcast networks, the only channels we got were USA, CSPAN, a shopping channel, CNN, the Learning Channel and a preview channel to tell us all the cool stuff that was playing on channels we didn't get. It was sad when the coolest cable shows we had were "Connections 2" and "Operation." The latter was pretty gory.

Yes! Sliders started on Fox, then got all weird when the Sci Fi Channel took over things. The brought in Karri Whurer, dropped all the regular characters... went straight to hell.
