Battlestar Galactic isn't on your list and should be.
Just got through binging the whole series over the last week.
What a fricking joke. Horrible writing, plot holes, bad acting, regurgitated every lame plot line from every lame 70s/80s sci fi show. As of right now this show is by far the most undeservedly lauded show I've ever seen. Just outrageously bad on so many levels.
The humans are have the ability to produce all these space ships and go faster than light in them, (SPOILER ALERT) yet they haven't cured cancer yet? They use technology on those ships that was outdated in the 80s? It's one stupid assumption after the next. The first two season's are especially egregious.
It's absolutely cartoonish.

If so, wow for you.

They explain this literally during the first few minutes of the show.

I admire your effort.

To try and equate the level of technology we currently have to what it would take to build a Battlestar or faster than light drive is the kind of lack of critical reasoning that the writers of that show had.

Yes, I had to force myself to start the third season, and even though there was a slight improvement in it and the last season, it was still a dumpster fire. If it was the stated premise of the show to have a show that had on the one these technical marvels and on the other portray the rest of their state of technology not even conforming to the basic reality of miniaturization of tech. Most of their tech is surpassed by our own, yet they can go faster than light? That's about as implausible a plot device as I've ever seen.
I laughed out loud at how pathetic some of the props were. When they were on a planet using a hand held scanner, all it was was a Fluke meter with some foam taped to it.
There were so many holes in the plots in the first two seasons and threads they didn't explain thoroughly, I couldn't believe it.
Seriously, nobody that says this was a good series has any business giving recommendations. It's a garbage show, with nothing interesting about it at all.
