    And those are the best ones, considering fuckwit writers and producers can’t run them into the ground while you’re enjoying them. The Wire, Sopranos etc. will always remain excellent.

    At least The 4400 was nice enough to continue in book form… which apparently also ends in a cliffhanger.

      Lol, I came here to also post The 4400. It’s been a good experience, but I’ve been taking my sweet time through season 3… would hate for the watching experience to be over. I’m excited to see how the books are, though.

    “Threshold” is one show I really liked that nobody seems to have heard of. Sadly cancelled after one season before anything was resolved. Loved the twist about the motivations of the alien intruders, though.

    Currently rewatching “People of Earth”. Most amusing part for me is always the corporate office like vibe in the alien spaceship.

    And for me right now that show is Farscape. I don’t know if you can call it niche, but it certainly is not very well known where I live. And this show is frelling good. I love it! I love the story, I love the actors, I love all the costumes and puppets, the sets, the effects. It is better than most of the dren studios nowadays produce

      I loved farscape when I first watched it on an antenna, later when i watched the last season in a day and a half because netflix claimed they were removing it. I’d like to watch it again soon.

      Came here to mention Farscape! Best space opera ever made. Just ordered the bluray set. My first watch was about 15 years ago on a crappy laptop screen. I’ve heard the sound quality is improved drastically, even if the image quality not so much, it being an upscale rather than native 1080p
