Battlestar Galactica, the reboot not the original!

Or just watch The Expanse again. It's spoilt me for space scifi. Have watched (also bought bluray) it getting on for a dozen times now.

Currently trying Halo.

I just watched through Continuum. It's pretty solid.

If Continuum's not your thing and you'd prefer keeping with something space-y, but still want to stick with the "Canadian Sci-Fi Starring Roger Cross" genre, there's the original Dark Matter.

J. Michael Straczynski's Babylon 5. Like most series it starts slow and awkward, but when it starts moving...also Crusade, a lesser known spinoff in the Babylon 5 universe that got pulled by the same creator because of network stupidity.

I agree with this sentiment, some episodes are good but a lot are just... Ok

I especially like the genetic dynasty aspects of the series. The books weren't my thing so that was a pleasant surprise!
