10 Greatest Sci-Fi Shows of the 21st Century, Ranked

Sci-fi is the genre I keep returning to when everything else feels thin. Fantasy can be transportive, and crime shows can be addictive. But science fiction is the one that keeps picking at the scab, consistently asking the hardest questions about who we are, what we’re building, and what we’re becoming in the process. It’s wild how all of that is often disguised as a show about robots or time travel or a man with two hearts. I’ve been writing about this genre for half a decade now, and the longer I do it, the more convinced I am that the ceiling of sci-fi TV is higher than almost any other form of storytelling.
