TODO – There are other media related to this universe, and I’m not sure what order to watch them in.

Like Doctor Who, this series is pretty light. It seems good so far.

Upon contact with aliens, humans set up a space station to promote ambassadorial relations among species.

Easily among the best television I’ve seen. Everything about this series is phenomenal: acting, stories, sets, etc. Unfortunately, the graphics do appear dated in places, but it otherwise holds up very well.

Mandatory viewing.

The last of a powerful race tours time and space, regularly ending up in trouble.

Playful fun. Occasionally attempts to glide past some significant issues with time travel but is generally bubblegum. Doesn’t take itself too seriously. Recommended until it goes woke.

Alien Nation (1989-1990) poster

A buddy cop series, but with aliens, with overtones of very difficult social topics.

This is surprisingly good, either in addition to, or separate from, the movie. While I didn’t particularly like the movie, this series is recommended. Anyone who liked the original movie should definitely continue the franchise with this series.

  • This continues from Alien Nation – (1988 movie), including a story arc.

    • I don’t know what it is about the series, but it has left a much stronger positive impression than the film.

A video hosting website.

It used to be great, but Google took it over, removed video responses, fucked up comments and left the service in shambles.
