I've just started watching Dark Matter, and am already bored with it as it just seems to be about people conflicts. Star Trek had a lot of what I am looking for, a continuous journey where they discover new stuff in the galaxy. In a similar way to the Interstellar movie, I want something that can fascinate me with what might be out there...    Posted:   Jun 23, 2015 - 5:19 PM     By:   joan hue   (Member) You mention "exploration or science." I'm going to do a recommendation based upon science, and it isn't a TV show, so pardon me for the digression. Read The Martian by Andy Weir. Many of us have recommended it on this board. Talk about SCIENCE. Yes, the movie will also be out in a few months, and if you've seen the trailer, the astronaut says something like, "If I'm to survive, I need to science the hell out of this." Yep, science as a verb. I've never read such pragmatic and creative uses of science, especially biology.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2015 - 8:19 PM     By:   SOSAYWEALL   (Member) Unfortunately, there's not a lot of choices, I'd recommend: Television: Star Trek: the Next Generation Stargate: Universe Doctor Who Farscape (? - it may not exactly what your looking for, but I listed it anyway) Stargate: Atlantis (good characters, lame villains) I want to recommend Battlestar Galactica (2004) but it may not exactly meet your criteria (amazing show though). Films: Europa Report Stargate Pandorum Sunshine Prometheus (a heavily flawed film, but gorgeous to look at especially on Blu-ray)    Posted:   Jun 24, 2015 - 3:03 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) Dude, check out this thread -- which is continously ongoing and being updated about this very thing: http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=77587&forumID=7&archive=0    Posted:   Jun 24, 2015 - 3:46 AM     By:   The Thing   (Member) Dude, check out this thread -- which is continously ongoing and being updated about this very thing: http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=77587&forumID=7&archive=0 Thanks, that'll give me some reading for this evening.     Non-Film Score Discussion: Sci-Fi TV series that focus on science/exploration    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
