I remember watching this when I was younger. It is a good family friendly show. It is interesting to see of Clark Kent was before he takes on is responsibilities as superman.

Is Farscape good?

This is a cool sciences fiction show, but not the best. I could for some reason not stomach the actor playing John Crichton. I had problems with him when he was on SG-1 also. This is probably just me, and many will likely disagree with me on this. If you have no problems with him, then this show might be pretty good, absolutely worth watching.

Why is Farscape recommended?

Not sure why, but they feel somewhat similar even if they are totally different.

Is Veronica Mars good?

This is an absolute fantastic TV show. I have watched it multiple times. The only bad thing that really bugs me is the ending. It`s a shitty cliffhanger ending. You can drop the last season, or at last drop the last half.

Why is Veronica Mars recommended?

Veronica Mars is kind of like Buffy without the supernatural aspect.
