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?

X-Files doesn't seem really short-lived to me, but I guess that's by comparison to some of the others...

X-Files went like 8 seasons... What's your criteria for short lived? ;)

Earth2... *that* was short lived. Okay, also not on Fox, but I liked it anyway.

Don't forget Millennium, another Chris Carter flight of...something. That was on Fox, wasn't it? The show was okay, although many said it got better/worse after the shadowy conspiracy stuff kicked in.

What about that X-Files spin-off? Lone Gunman? That was an awesome show.

Not Sci-fi but still FOX, looks like they're trying to cancel Arrested Development again, bastards! I love that frickin' show.
