Sapphire & Steel (1979) Odd UK series about a couple of people investigaing rifts in time. Short-lived, but quite respectable. Starred Joanna Lumley and David McCallum.
SeaQuest DSV Crap submarine-based shenanigans, like Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, minus the good storylines. Well, it dd have the odd good 'un, but UK fans didn't get much of a chance to see them, since ITV scheduled the episodes at seemingly random times and played them in a random order. Lasted two series. Starred Roy Schieder.
SeaQuest 2032 An attempt to revive SeaQuest, with acceptable results, but sadly it only lasted one series. Starred Micheal Ironside.
Sliders (1994-?) Series about a group of people who can travel between parallel earths. Tracy Torme, creator of this series, left at the start of the third season, in protest at it's change in direction. Sliders was rescued from death by the Sci-Fi Channel which funded it's fourth series.
Space: 1999 Crusty UK TV series set on the moon after it has been blasted out of orbit through some kind of freak accident (doh!).
Space: Above and Beyond (1995-1996) A slightly vaguely monickered show, this one. Very cliched series about a bunch of pilots in a war against some alien-types. Kind of Full Metal Jacket with none of the skilled scripting/directing. It was axed after one series, unsurprisingly.
Space Island One (1998- ) One of BSkyB's few original programs, Space Island One is set on the first international space station. It features more in the way of 'real' science (at least, that was one of it's marketing points).
Space Precinct (1995-1996) Utter rubbish, this series was about a couple of cops stopping the bad guys. The series has it's moments, but sadly all too few of them. Avoid at all costs. Created by Gerry Anderson. Starred Ted 'Knots Landing' Shackleford as Brogan and Rob Youngblood as Haldane.
Stargate SG-1 (1997-1998?) The TV series of the film Stargate. Richard Dean Anderson (MacGyver) takes on the role previously played by Kurt Russell.
Star Trek (1966-?) The series that just wouldn't die, Star Trek has lived on in several incarnations, all of which are interesting and well written in their own way, but some fall down more often than others. For the sake of completeness, those four Trek series in full are: Star Trek, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and Star Trek: Voyager.
Streethawk (198?) Short-lived drama about a super-motorbike used to fight crime. Lasted one series.
Supercar (196?) I know nothing about this series except that it was created by Gerry Anderson in the 60's.
