Poll question: Well which is the greatest Sci Fi Franchise?
It's Trek vs Star Wars May the best phaser or light saber win.

19. Yes, they tried to do some spinoffs after B5 ended
They did not last long but it was a franchise, there were also a few TV movies set in the middle and after the overall story arc.

20. Doctor Who
Star Wars was ruined by that "Episode I" bullshit. Star Trek was sullied by Deep Space 9, and eye-socket fucked by Voyager.

Doctor Who has been quite tarnished by some of the shit that's gone on in the "new" series (and the 90's tv movie... man... jesus), but it still hasn't been as horribly destroyed as those other two.
