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.

It would be Netflix's Lost in Space for me. Love that show. It's got such a well-written plot and great characters, I'm so sad that not many people have seen it. It's only three seasons too.

Probably doesn't count as 'lesser known' but my answer is Galaxy Quest

I really enjoyed Dark Matter. It got a little wild as the story went on, but the premise was very good, and I enjoyed a lot of the characters. (Especially the Android)

Firefly will never not be my favorite. Truly before its time... imagine how many seasons it would have run for if it were made today and on a different network...

Farscape has been covered, so to bring up something that definitely hasn't been mentioned, Charlie Jade. A Canadian/South African co-production from the 2000s about three parallel Earth versions of Cape Town colliding. Awesome show, but I don't think I've ever met anyone who knows it.
