    I'm surprised Syfy still has viewers tuning in, after cancelling so many good shows.

    • @ericnick4498
      @ericnick4498 9 років тому +9

      12 monkeys and Helix is still going on. They have another show that is coming which called The Magicians and 2 other decent shows that are still ongoing. So I'll say their still going on strong.

    • @DragonMasterThlayli
      @DragonMasterThlayli 9 років тому +10

      Eric Nick That may be so, but I've had a major fallout with SyFy, since they cancelled both Legend of the Seeker and then Dominion, just as they were getting really good.

    How is our new syfy show doing ?
    - Sir, it got high rating, it is a fan favourite and just ended its latest season on a cliffhanger!
    Good, lets cancel it then !

    Oh BSG...still my favorite television show. I tried to explain to my non-sci-fi loving friends that it was so much more than just humans versus robots. It had complex themes and just wonderful writing. The sci-fi aspect was just a backdrop for truly relevant stories. This is a show that I will always go back to and re-watch.

      Saw an old interview with ... forget his name ... Admiral Adama anyway. He said he'd be in the show if it remained about humans. If they ever brought in an alien, he was going to fall down, have a heart attack and be written off the show. Was a great demand that really paid off.

  • @lordofbanana6869
    @lordofbanana6869 9 років тому +17

    I hope Dark Matter will one day make it's way on such a list. It is very vell done and it's story has always some surprises in store, it will never get boring even for a split second with that many twists. Also Will Wheaton plays an awesome role towards the end of the first season and it looks like he will play a major role in the next season.

    And now I'm crying. Sanctuary was one of my top most favorite shows and I'll never get over how they just cancelled it and I'll never know what happened. At least with Warehouse 13 and Eureka they wrapped it up. But damn, I miss those shows. Two of my all-time faves.

  • @LilPugHugs

    • @mipoorboy1478
      @mipoorboy1478 8 років тому +4

      It was great but it's hard to narrow down!!! There are so many!!! Alphas, fringe, defiance, and I know I am missing more. They just cancel it so freaking quick while letting freaking lost girl-good but not the same category, and such run on forever.

    • @karenhall4645

      Tom McGraw FOX....the network that continually orders Sci-Fi shows, dumps them in shit time slots then cancels them before they can get on their feet. Firefly, Dark Angel, Sarah Connor Chronicles, Almost Human, Brimstone, Terra Nova, Wonderfalls (not scifi but still great).

    • @rockwarlock9573
      @rockwarlock9573 8 років тому +2

      +BetterLifeAhead Dark Matter is better than Killjoys (though I stopped watching Killjoys after the first 3 or 4 episodes so it might have gotten better). I still think the Warehouse 13 was the best they had though

    • @aidanblackwood6078
      @aidanblackwood6078 8 років тому +8

      +Sole Servitor The Expanse is way better than Dark Matter and Killjoys combined.

    • @SpiritHawk7
      @SpiritHawk7 8 років тому +3

      Killjoys and Dark Matter have become some of my favorite new shows to watch. For me, Killjoys is better than Dark Matter, but I love watching them in tandem on Fridays. The Expanse is pretty cool, somewhere in-between the two.

    • @betobot2
      @betobot2 7 років тому +1

      I'm not sure I'd say one is necessarily better than the other. They both have their strengths. I see the distinction as more a matter of taste. Some people think 2001 is the best scifi movie ever and all I can think about is the monkeys and the rainbow ending. I'll take Star Wars (even prequels) or Star Trek (even Nemesis, but I'd be hard pressed to ever like Insurrection), so I prefer Dark Matter.

  • @AceAviations2
    @AceAviations2 9 років тому +5

    Fun fact, Warehouse 13, Alphas and Eureka took place in the same fictional universe, there was a major episode in Warehouse 13 where Eureka characters were trapped in the Warehouse, with a Eureka episode where Claudia from Warehouse 13 was featured, the Alphas connection is more subtle, but there, the Warehouse doctor, or main character Artie Neilson's love interest early on makes an appearance in the Alphas episode 'Never Let Me Go' if I remember correctly. Too bad Alphas ended so soon as we might have seen characters from Warehouse 13 and Eureka come back there. This might have been an attempt to have a sort of television universe like the MCU is. Other examples of this include all 3 of the CSI's, Law and Order and Law and Order; SVU, and In Plain Sight and Law And Order Criminal Intent.
    And Warehouse 13 is the ONLY show that I remember to shock me with events and reveals multiple times, I didn't watch it much near the end (up to the point that Artie reveals the time travel to save the Warehouse after the previous season's finale, after that nothing), but at least it got a short final season. I really wish that SiFi would go back to shows like these as I could never stomach shows like Helix, KillJoys may seem like something I'd possibly watch. At least Ghost Hunters is still there I think. Though The Librarians on TNT is kind of a Warehouse 13 successor.

  • @gustabartok
    @gustabartok 8 років тому +139

    What about DARK MATTER? and CONTINUUM? they were better than some of these

    • @2frelledminds
      @2frelledminds 8 років тому +20

      Dark Matter, Killjoys, Continuum, and Lost Girl are all Canadian shows that have been imported. They've aired around the same time, but they've all started their life on a Canadian TV channel. That may be why none of those were featured in this list. I believe every show in the list had completed it's run by the time the list was created, with the exception of a couple of the honorable mentions.

    • @SeanHasYT

      I like Defiance. I'd check out the pilot episode. As with most shows, it gets better with each season :)

    • @SpiritHawk7
      @SpiritHawk7 8 років тому +8

      +Randy Anderson No, It's not because they're Canadian, case in point Sanctuary, Stargate Atlantis, and Warehouse 13 are all on this list. For Dark Matter and Killjoys, this list was published on the exact day their 2nd episodes aired of Season 1. You can't judge an entire show after only seeing just it's pilot episode. Also, all 5 of those shows have always been picked up by both countries networks at the same time, having dueling partnerships on Syfy (US) AND Space (Canada) since the the start of their 1st seasons, not just only on Canadian TV; Hence, Syfy branding them as "Original Series".

    I remember SyFy having that Alice (2009) movie that aired as a two-night event. It’s such an important part of my childhood and remains my favorite version of Alice in Wonderland, especially since I was never a fan of the original story. It’s available on UA-cam so you guys should watch it. It’s just one of those movies that are fun to watch, mindless enough to enjoy and yet it has enough substance and continuity to leave you wanting more!

    First of all, Stargate: SG1 should have been on this list.
    Secondly, this list should have been called 'Top 10 SyFy shows made in Canada, except for Farscape'.
    Let's face facts, the top 3 SyFy shows are: Battlestar Galactica, Farscape, and Stargate: SG1.

    • @dedcaesar2325

      Steve -O​​ Sanctuary wasn't a Syfy original either, it wasn't originally created for Syfy but they brought that show over to the network, as well.
      If they can include Sanctuary on this list they can include Stargate SG 1.
      By the way, Syfy and Showtime are both owned by Universal.

    • @Chymea
      @Chymea 9 років тому +1

      theylied1776 Santuary started out on SyFy's website as webisodes. When the webisodes proved popular, it got turned into TV. If WatchMojo had limited it to TV where the show got its start, then Sanctuary would have been out. Stargate SG-1 is owned by MGM and not Universal. MGM doesn't own it's own TV channel so it leases its shows out to other stations for airing.

    • @theylied1776
      @theylied1776 9 років тому +1

      You might want to check your facts because one of the three owners of MGM is Comcast, which also owns SyFy. Why do you think Universal/MGM share a theme park in Orlando? They have a mutual owner.
      Check the Distributor for Stargate the movie, and the production company for the Television series, and it's MGM/Universal distribution. Showtime is owned by Comcast, which owns MGM/Universal. Stargate SG-1 was made in Canada on the same studio lot in Vancouver as every SyFy show, except for Farscape, which was shot in Sydney, Australia.
      I stand by my comment.

    Syfy movies may suck for the most part, but their series have always been amazing! They really know how to deliver on the TV Show front! Love all of these! I can't even pick my favorite because they are all fantastic in their own rights! The one I grew up watching though was Farscape! Have a special love for Helix and Eureka because I am more than anything a scientist and love seeing shows with strong science storylines! But I have always enjoyed fantasy, and really loved Sanctuary and Warehouse 13! So yeah, can't really choose a favorite on this one! Anyone that has seen all of these shows might understand my dilemma!

I would also like the shows First Wave and Andromeda. I would love to put Doctor Who here, as it is my favorite Science Fiction franchise of all time, but it moved to BBC America, and is technically a BBC show. I am also looking forward to Incorporated, Aftermath, and Channel Zero premiering in a few days. Have a good one!

    Defiance was much anticipated, and after much of the first season made that anticipation worth-while, but somewhere at the end of the first season things took a strange turn that never really got back on course for me. I didn't like the way it went and stopped watching, finally picked it up again post-production but I still didn't like the way it went. I hate it when writers and/or production companies try to put an artistic flair to the story plot and end up ruining an otherwise good show (I still liked the cast and thought all did a marvelous job), why didn't they just stick to the style that the pilot was set in.

Maybe the rest of the series was good, but an extremely experienced military guy gets killed by a newborn zombie. Nope, blew my mind way out of reasonable suspension of disbelief.

    I'd add Lost Girl as that's all I watch on SyFy (I'm WAY behind though as I haven't even started Season 3). But then I forgot that it originated in Canada's Showcase channel and that would probably make as much sense as calling various anime on Toonami and Adult Swim (Dragon Ball, Zatch Bell, Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, Cowboy Bebop, Inuyasha) a Cartoon Network show (pretty much why they won't put SG-1 on the list).

      BGS is not Hardcore SciFI. If you want hardcore you need to watch The expanse there you have the most realistic physicx and future technology. Nonetheless BSG is my most favorite series ever

    • @novovires5625
      @novovires5625 8 років тому +3

      Nef22​​​ Really? It's a pure Hardcore Sci-Fi with advanced technology like Artificial Consciousness (Cylons) . Every episode tell you the meaning of human beings life / humanoid (Cyborgs) , and they explain the concept of politics, religious belief, philosophical issues and the Military (High Rank Elite) . If you want to talk about the spaceship battle, you will never see this type of battle in others Tv Shows.
      In philosophical issues, BSG weaves truly big ideas as opposed to merely interesting ones, like the effects of time travel-deeply into the story lines of each episode. From age old questions of free will and responsibility to such cutting-edge topics as the bioethics of transhumanism, BSG seamlessly incorporates philosophical themes into the narrative structure and forces us to consider how we should respond to such issues. no show has ever matched BSG ability to examine the effects of religious belief on politics, society, philosophy, and human (as well as humanoid) civilization.
      The religious themes in BSG are complex and often confusing. The humans are polytheistic, believing in a number of gods that are connected with Greek and Roman mythology while their humanoid enemy, the Cylons, are monotheistic. What makes the series interesting from a religious perspective is that the beliefs of each of the two groups (as well as the subset of agnostics as atheists) have serious implications. Almost every major character has strong religious convictions that shape not only their own individual destiny but the fate of all humankind/humanoidkind.
      In the military side, the structure and tradition from BSG is modeled loosely on the U.S. Navy, though it adds an intriguing level of gender-neutrality (e.g., living quarters are completely co-ed, officers of both genders are referred to as “sir”). This is characteristic of the show, for even when it falls back on clichés like pilots are cocky. While most shows about the military can’t even get the most basic details right (Marines with sideburns!) BSG goes to extraordinary lengths to achieve a level of realism.
      To sum up, no show on television has every captured the nuances of military culture like BSG. Although it may be a clever way for the writers to circumvent the basic-cable prohibition against profanity, it also adds a level of realism to the dialogue for in the military cussing is often used as a form of technical jargon.Battlestar Galactica reveals at the end that it took place in a prehistoric past rather than the future.

    • @ondrejpechacek3583
      @ondrejpechacek3583 8 років тому

      HC SF if am not mistaken refers to sci fi that is closely followed by current science. BSG as it is cannot be in that category solely on technology they use. For example FTL, gravity on the ship without rotation, explosions in space. If you consider this worthy of HC SF then Star trek, Star was and others are also HC.

  • @Trilaan
    @Trilaan 9 років тому +2

    I didn't start watching EUREKA until season 4 (because I heard there would be a W13 crossover). That turned out to be a really interesting jumping-on point: first off, by then it had become a well-oiled machine that knew exactly how to make the most out of its premise and its cast. Second, the time-travel shake-up meant the characters had plenty of reason to directly address their backstories in contrast to how their world had suddenly changed.
    I was surprised WAREHOUSE 13 ranked higher, even though I watched W13 from the start.
