Science fiction has provided the small screen with many of its most memorable -and forgettable- moments. The best, such as Star Trek, Doctor Who, The Prisoner and Gerry Anderson's super-marionation puppets Thunderbirds, have attracted a devoted following who refuse to let their legends fade. Other series, such as Space Patrol and the Andromeda series, have not been quite so fortunate, slipping into the twilight zone of archive television. In recent years, the enduring fascination with science fiction has spawned new classics such as The X-Files, Farscape, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and a new dynasty of Star Treck offspring -the phenomenally successful Deep Space Nine and Voyager.
