Battlestar rules.
The wraith suck,
and you're all a bunch of bastards.
Especially hyfe.

I've seen a couple of episodes of Farscape and I just thought it stupid. I prefer my sci fi to remain within the "drama" sphere. Farscape seemed to me to go for stupid comedy.

You have to really watch a whole series of Farscape to appreciate its brilliance. It hits all the bases. Sure, in some episodes they go for a kind of wacky humour, but that's not always the case. There's moments of poignant emotion, real drama, suspense, horror even. It's a comedy melodrama thriller western set in outer space. They have some exceptionally creative writers, a colourful cast of characters and muppets. What more do you want? :p
Stargate, on the other hand, I have no love for. Zzzzzzz.
