I'm a fan of good shit.

3rd season is completely different, you'll either love it or hate it. Think Blade Runner.

I'm a big fan of Westworld. I feel like I would order them 1>3>2 in terms of seasons. The one thing I can say with no interest in debating, is that I could do without their after-episode rundowns. Wholly shit I hate them so much.

The more I learn about showrunners and hear them speak about their shows, the more I wish they didn't exist.

The sci fi episodes were greatly outnumbered by the other genres

I got to the 2nd season, but got sidetracked. I feel like i watched the whole 1st season and never actually learned anyone's name...and didn't need to either.

Same. It's joyless like BSG.

I really enjoyed Sense8. I had no idea what it was when I started watching, then was sucked in. I feel like over time i became a little less interested, but my memory of the experience of watching it was that it was enjoyable the whole way through.

There are a good number of Anime series that offer solid sci-fi. Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in Shell, Psycho Pass to name a few. However, I would be remiss if I brought up Anime sci-fi without mentioning Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. It's a film not a series but is probably one of the best sci-fis I think Anime has to offer.

Cowboy bebop for sure. Now that I'm thinking about anime: FLCL.

Non anime: Futurama.

I've watched all those series, but never heard of that film. I'll have to check it out.

Forgot about Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

I haven't watched that at all. I do like the "lore" of Terminator, so much as there is any.

It was excellent. Only thing that matched Terminator 2.
