How in the WORLD did "Lost in Space" show up as a "Pioneer of
Television?"  It was the cheesiest SF show I've ever seen.  Trek was
probably the biggest contributor in this area, and the Zone was also a
big mover in pusing the boundaries, but B5 certainly rates a mention
well ahead of Lost in Space deserving one.  

Stargate SG-1 should also have appeared on the list -- after all, they
went for TEN SEASONS (something no other SF show has EVER done) plus
two direct-to-DVD feature films, and SG1 fans are STILL asking for
more.  Even Trek TNG only went for something like seven seasons plus,
what, four movies?
