Also, on a Sci-Fi note - I like the StarGate SG-1 series. StarGate Atlantis is also good.
Highly recommended.
Reasons:
1. Good character development.
2. Solid enemies (although sometimes cartoonish)
3. Nice development of philosophical idea
The main con is that sometimes at the 35 minute mark the writers say to themselves: "Oh god. I need to wrap it up quickly". So in some chapters the ending is brief and the story is not solid enough. But this is occasional.
I love Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis, they're my favorite of the (semi) campy sci-fi series I've seen. The show is somewhat silly, but charming. I always felt the cast on SG-1 had great chemistry. There's plenty of sci-fi with more compelling storylines and mythology, but SG-1 is fun because it feels like you're hanging out with the characters on whatever weird adventure they're facing today. It's fun in a low-brow, pulpy way that's rare today.
The show also managed to be pro-America while being skeptical of government, in a strange way it's nearly the most "conservative" show I've seen, from a political standpoint. Also very little Agenda present (aside from an awful feminist episode in the first season.) Part of me is sad that the franchise is effectively dead but on the other hand I'm glad I don't have to watch it get blown to pieces by wokeness.
I watched How I Met Your Mother last year and enjoyed it, which surprised me as I generally dislike sitcoms and find them unfunny. It has some blue-pill elements and I can't stand Robin, who the writers clearly adore, but it's funny and has a bit of a weird sense of humor. It feels like an unintentional period piece that really captures the feel of the early 2000s, prior to the Woke Years.
