    I just want some sort of SciFi that doesn’t take itself too seriously all the time and isn’t dark and broody.

    You can get a bit dark, like I enjoyed Stargate Universe, that was a nice mix of dark story telling that still had fun.

    I want to have fun and escape the world in SciFi shows, not be reminded of it.

    One thing I’ve noticed with newer movies is they do a lot more “tell, don’t show” than old movies.

    Main character seeing old friend: Well if it isn’t my old friend Daniel, we used to roam these streets as kids, I used to have dinner at your house every day, you were like my brother, I would have done anything for you, I haven’t seen you since our other old friend Jake died mysteriously, remember when we used to play videogames all night and made that life long pact that if “HE” returns we will do what it takes to send him back to the world where he emerged from when we were kids and lived right next door to each other, our mothers were best friends until the incident but they never stopped us from being life long best friends forever, we used to play in the streets all night, me you Daniel and Chris, the rat Pac they called us, best friends for life.
