Let's see now...(looking at Avatar) I think Farscape rocked, own every DVD, then got hooked on Stargate SG1 (have those DVDs as well). Like the "outer limits". Stargate Atlantis is OK. Battlestar Galactica is just plain bad.

My Scifi Channel favorites (in order):

Battlestar Galactica (new)
Stargate SG-1
The Invisible Man

People probably don't remember (or just didn't like) the Invisible Man, but I really enjoyed Vincent Ventresca's and Paul Ben-Victor's performances in this series. Though there were parts of this show, like most any show I suppose, that I would have eliminated, overall I found it very entertaining.

[EDIT]I did like Farscape a lot, and do like Stargate Atlantis, but just not quite as much as the three I mentioned.[/EDIT]

My top three favorite reruns on this channel are probably:

The Twilight Zone
Star Trek:TOS
Forever Knight

I miss Farscape, but am usually content with the Friday night line-up. Can't wait for the next season to start.

I don't.... The first season was good, then it started going sharply downhill from there. They completely got away from the original premise of the story. Creiton[sp] should have been dead in that episode where he left one ship for another WITHOUT the aid of life support. Come on....

It's nice when they have one of those days where they show all of the episodes for that season. I miss alot of them due to working nights. It's nice to be able to catch up or know why someone is missing from the series.
No matter where you go, there you are...

TimeCop was OK, forgot Sliders. Loved the first year or so, then it got kinda strange.

ITS STARGATE MONDAY today. Hope to see Anise, she's got a great Profile, if you know what I mean. Love the Tokra' women.

I don't have cable or satellite, so the only time I get to see the Sci fi Channel is when I'm 'round our kids'

Recently (some time in the past year?) they showed Babylon 5; the best sci fi series ever - a bit slow in the first season but picks up to a breakneck speed by the third.

Other sci fi that I think is good and would recommend to others are:
Star Trek (tng & voyager)
sliders
the new Doctor Who

Sometimes I think we are alone in the universe, and sometimes I think we are not. In either case the idea is quite staggering.
