In no particular order:

1. Star Wars

2. Star Trek (DS9 and TOS mostly, some TNG. I ignore Voyager and Enterprise)

3. Dune (Only books with Frank Herbert's name on it, Brian and KJA's works are contemptible beyond words)

4. Warhammer 40K (The books and the games have been pretty good, sadly I lack the spare capital to play the table top game)

5. The Amtrak Wars (I read the books as a teenager and still read them every summer with out fail, I heard that there are plan to convert it to the silver screen and I am very much looking forward to seeing the Wagon Trains realised)

There are honourable mentions such as Firefly (yeah it was short, short enough to never suck), Nu Who, Classic V, Space Above and Beyond, Earth Final Conflict, Farscape, and more than I can name at the moment. I'm also facinated by the Riddick Universe, after reading the novelisation by Alan Dean Foster there seems to be a lot more to the place than the movies showed.

1. Revelation Space.
2. The Culture Novels.
3. Stargate when I feel a little campy.
4. Doctor who, for when I feel very very campy.
5. Mars trilogy. Why did they have to make TerraNova, when they could have done THIS.
