Buffy and Dr. Who are great although I think the latter would have been even better if Ecclestone had stayed, David Tennant’s weird facial expressions somewhat spoil it for me. No Stargate SG1! it would be 2 on my list, it had the same combination of inventive story lines and funny dialogue as Buffy.

Funny, Babylon 5 is my personal number 1 and it's nowhere on your list. Of course, there is no accounting for taste.

Have you read any of the Relaunch novels? I highly recommend the ones written by S.D. Perry. I picked up Twist of Faith, a compilation of the first couple of books, written by different authors, a couple years ago for travel reading but never got around to reading it until this past year. Perry's Avatar books nailed the characters and wove a narrative worthy of the later seasons of the show. The stories by other authors were unfortunately off the mark. After finishing that collection I purchased and read Rising Son and Unity, also by Perry, on the iPhone Kindle app. Neither disappointed. All three picked up the threads of the finale, developed compelling character arcs and wove in elements from both DS9 and TNG (remember Marc Alaimo as the first Cardassian?) in a way that would make any Trek fan smile.
