Most Scifi fans I have ran into can pretty quickly rank the four stars –BattleSTAR Galactica, STAR Trek, STARgate, and STAR wars, but what lesser-known or less-prestigious shows hold a special place in your heart?

No, Firefly doesn't count as lesser-known.

Dark Matter was amazing. Farscape was almost perfect, in my opinion. Finally, Firefly was astounding in its short time.

All are worth checking out.

I enjoyed Dark Matter (didn't watch all of it though) but some parts of were kinda cringe, especially space ninja prince. Also I felt like some characters weren't played very well, for example that Seer villain and Torri Higginson's character (female corporate captain).

Farscape was incredible. It's easily the most memorable sci-fi show that comes to mind. It was goofy, but it had some of the most unique sci-fi ideas that have become longstanding tropes and some of the most memorable characters.
