These armbands aren't right out of Futurama, they're right out of Ark II

Are you referring to Ark II?

Other series that I haven't seen yet that are better than at least some of the ones that were on "the list": The 4400, ALF, Earth 2, VR.5, Harsh Realm, Roswell. I've also just been told to add in The Adventures of Briscoe County Jr. If we're going to have super-heroes and sitcoms, then My Hero should also be there. If Lois & Clark are on there, what about Smallville?

Threshold seems to be working up to be a good entry, but it is a bit too early to have made that list.

What about Highlander? Or Millennium? Or Charmed? Land of the Giants? The Pretender? Strange Luck? The Kindred? Wolf Lake? You can argue about their "Science Fiction" status, but they all are as close as some on the list (and most are arguably better than some as well). Oh yeah, Point Pleasant as well.

If you're going to have Man from U.N.C.L.E, Alias and La Femme Nikita qualify as well. I don't think I saw Get Smart listed, either.

Already mentioned, but I'd have to vote for Farscape and Blake's 7 as the two most prominent missing series, followed closely by The Prisoner. I also have a soft spot in my heart for Search (1972-73, I think some people were referring to it as "Probe" (not the Asimov one), which I don't think it was ever called; Probe was the name of the organization).

I don't even want to get into all the anime that maybe ought to be on there as well, e.g. Astroboy.

Am I the only one who got the Far Out Space Nuts reference? I thought so. And you people say you love Adam Quark.

I wonder how many remember Far Out Space Nuts?

According to the existing replies, few!

Ah, but I do. Here's my picture.. I'm the one in the middle.

Sounds more like Wonderbug (aka Schleppcar) from the Kroft show of the same name.

I just went looking for a few of my favorites from when I was a kid:

The Fantastic Journey: Weird adventures in the Bermuda Triangle

Ark II: Keeping technology alive in a post-apocalyptic Earth.

Run Joe Run: A german shepard who could put Lassie to shame

And we can't forget the pretty much forgotten Andy Griffith in space show, Salvage One: Using the trans-linear vector principle to build a rocket out of junkyard parts. (An early concept of Junkyard Wars?)

And a whole bunch of other shows from what used to be known as Cartoon Day (Back when cartoons were only on saturday morning, before Cartoon Network.)

I think we all know where the inspiration for the Warthog truly came from.
