Some of the shows that I would include:
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
UFO
Space: 1999
Star Trek (original, Next Gen, and DS9)
Twilight Zone (original)
Outer Limits (original and revival)
Quantum Leap
The X-Files
X-Men

Battlestar Galactica
Bionic Woman
Six Million Dollar Man
Babylon 5
Stargate SG1 and Atlantis
Farscape
Firefly
Blake's 7
reruns of MST3K
maybe The Dead Zone and The 4400 (if that becomes a series - it was certainly set up for that.)
Brian 08-22-2004, 06:10 PM If I were President of the Sci-Fi Channel, I add the following shows. Realistically, I wouldn't be able to have them uncut but I would not edit a lot out of them. I also wouldn't crunch the credits.
Basically I would show everything that everyone else listed. I'd list
The Wild, Wild West
Automan
Manimal
M.A.N.T.I.S.
insstavlin 09-14-2004, 03:46 PM Most of the shows that you guys have listed have all been on the SCI FI channel in the past. I don't know what it takes to bring stuff back on there. Two series I would love them to play again:
The Invaders
Gene Roddenberry's Earth Final Conflict (this time, play season 5)
One of my biggest disappointments, oddly enough is when the SCI FI channel played a marathon of Lost in Space episodes on the dated they supposedly lifted off earth in September of 1997. I was hoping that they would do the same thing with Space 1999 on September 13, 1999 (the date the moon supposedly blasted out of earth's orbit.) But it was not to be. When I wrote back to the SCIFI channel, someone wrote back and said that they had already played that series, and had no plans to re-acquire it. (GO FIGURE!) Isn't that what that channel was there for? To play classic SCIFI series and movies where no one else would? I think their heads got too big when they started having over-hyped and highly rated new programming.
I still love them though! Just not as much as in the early days!
catsoup 03-15-2005, 04:44 AM No Paticular Order:
seaQuest D.S.V
Earth 2
Automan
The Flash
Mannimal
Knight Rider
Star Trek (all of them really)
Quantum Leap
The X-Files
V
Voyagers
Amazing Stories
The Twilight Zone
The New Twilight Zone
Ray Bradbury Theater
The Highwayman
Hard Times on Planet Earth
Alf
...and of course a bunch of others ;)
Now if I were the President of TV Land, I would dump all the 50's & 60's crap...and flex the generational muscle a bit, add some stuff in the 80's and 90's as well, but that's a whole different topic in a different forum.

Aside from showing all the Star Trek series, and putting MST3K on again (plus all thier Comedy central shows too) I would do more shows that focused on the history of Sci Fi.
A while back they aired a few "behind the scenes" type programs about some of the shows they ran (I saw a great one about the original Battlestar Galactica) and I would do more of them; focusing on famous sci fi movies and personalities.
tvfan 2 10-22-2005, 01:25 PM I would show:
7 Days
Early Edition
