Sci-fi series Star Trek is the show most people want to see returned to their TV screens, a survey has found.

Originally broadcast in the US in 1966, it topped a poll of more than 1,000 viewers commissioned by UK interactive TV firm Home Media Networks.

Fantasy action series Buffy the Vampire Slayer was second, followed by long-running sitcom Friends.

Star Trek's latest spin-off TV series, Enterprise, was axed in February following poor ratings.

Star Trek also spawned 10 movie spin-offs, the most recent being Nemesis in 2002.

Sitcom Fawlty Towers was the highest ranking UK show in the list, in fourth place.

Sci-fi shows featured heavily in the top 10, including UK series Blake's 7 and US shows Babylon 5 and Stargate.

Popular US sitcom Seinfeld, which spawned ongoing series Curb Your Enthusiasm, was in ninth place.

Here is the full list:
1. Star Trek
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer
3. Friends
4. Fawlty Towers
5. Blake's 7
6. The X-Files
7. Babylon 5
8. Stargate
9. Seinfeld
10. The A-Team

Raph's Girl Note: Why the shell can Stargate even be on that list when it's still running?? :-? I mean come on! Stargate is currently in it's 9th season and going on for a 10th, plus the spin-off! Where's the shows that SHOULD be on that list like Dark Angel and Futurama?! :ohwell:

[IceFlash78]

well maybe Stargate is on the list because it isn't shown on TV anymore? I mean, I see it all the time on the Sci-fi channel, but I remember there used to be a time when it was shown on Fox or Fx. Maybe people who don't have Scifi listed Stargate as their most missed show cuz they can't watch it on their basic channels?

As for the list.... I don't really have an opinion, but Friends? common... It just went off the air a year ago, and you can catch reruns EVERYWHERE! It should NOT be on the list at all.

what no firefly thats weak

[Lady Venus]

The show I mised the most is Knight Rider.

[Jed]

I miss Angel, even though I thought it went downhill with season 5.

[ThirdMarioBro]

I miss Dark Angel. Fu*k you Fox.

I miss Enterprise. Fu*k you UPN.

When TMNT goes off, I'm basically through with TV alltogether except for Christmas, New Year's, and the occational special. I get all I need from the web.

Star Trek has had its' time, in the past few years, Stargate has proven to be ten times superior, especially in its' current seasons and "Atlantis"

Angel should be replacing Buffy on that list, at least Buffy actually ENDED., and downhill my f*cking ass, the fifth season brought both a sharper shade of grey and a dose of fun and charm along with it, the fun was brought back to a series flooded with pain numbing story arcs from seasons ago, if Angel is accused of daring to be what it was in the first two seasons, the more power to it.

Knight Riders' getting a movie in 2006, starring Hasselhoff, making it a continuation of the story

The A-Team were just starting to develop a direction and becoming more than a standard action/comedy format when it was cancelled, so yeah, I miss it.

Mystery Science Theatre needs to be brought back.

[Anarky]

That is one weird list. I mean, I know most of the shows, but they're not spectacular. But I guess that differs from person to person.

One show I definitely miss is Batman Beyond. That was a kickass series. So was Farscape, which is pretty cool to begin with. And of course I miss "Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs", which was, along with the TMNT, a piece of my childhood.

...Fawlty Towers is'nt spectacular?:o

[Anarky]

...Fawlty Towers is'nt spectacular?:o

Okay, that one is, I admit it.

...Fawlty Towers is'nt spectacular?:o

Maybe it's just me, but I never thought "Fawlty Towers" was as great as all that. It struck me as basically an overextended comic sketch. John Cleese is a great comedian and actor, but he was simply shrill and unpleasant in the series. I liked "Are You Being Served", another British comedy from that era which takes place in a department store, better, At least it had more variety.

There's a list of shows I miss, but it is rather long to include here.

[Cerpin Taxt]

Don't worry...the Muppets are returning next year in a reality show called The Next Muppet. It's kinda like "The Next Top Model" meets "American Idol" in that they're auditioning for a new Muppet and we get to vote. :lol: Im eagerly awaiting to see who the judges are...

[Doppleganger]

Gargoyles should be on that list. :P

Amen. That's the thing about MST3K, the concept is so good the show could go on forever. I wouldn't mind if they got new actors, either. I was uncertain about Mike after Joel left, but he turned out to be even funnier. I'm sure any comedian worth his salt could make a good replacement.
