The 50 Best Science Fiction TV Shows

If you are looking for something to take your mind off our current woes, you could do worse than starting with this list of the 50 best science fiction TV shows. It's a comprehensive list, but I found the rankings somewhat idiosyncratic and there are some ommissions, for example, the wonderful British series, Years and Years.

So there are a lot of shows to enjoys. FWIW, my favourites are:

• Max Headroom
• Man in the High Castle
• The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
• Stargate SG-1
• Babylon 5
• Star Trek: The Next Generation
• The Expanse
• Orphan Black
• The Outer Limits 
• Torchwood
• Battlestar Galactica (2004)
• The X-Files
• The Prisoner

If I had to pick the top five, they would be The Expanse, Babylon 5, and Star Trek: TNG, adding Years and Years and Star Trek: Pickard, which are not on the Rolling Stone list.
