SF/fantasy on TV

I'm surprised that the number of SF/fantasy TV shows have actually gone down since the millennium, I would have guessed the opposite. But maybe it's just that the quality has improved. Which is nice, I'd rather have five really good shows than twenty-five mediocre ones.

kinda interesting which shows are put on the timeline. No reference to Blakes 7, Torchwood, DS9, Hercules, Angel.

However does include

Firefly, Sliders, ArkII

I guess the peak was when SciFi channel was new.

Indeed, this is missing also at least Enterprise, also Supernatural, Superman, all the Stargates, Fringe etc.

Odd. I'm quite sure there are a lot more shows that should be on that list, although my head, which is filled with good food and vodka and red wine can't think of them.
