One of my favorite shows, alongside Farscape... You forgot to mention the
recent Vampire and the fact that the earth is a type 13 planet, usually
destroyed when one of the inhabitants, trying to discover the higgs-boson
particle, accidentally create a black hole that swallows the planet.

Any show where a universe is destroyed in an episode, has to be thinkin on a
pretty big scale. A TON of transhuman references if you can get past the
sex, gore, and teenage sense of humor they exibit at times

Also one of my favorite episodes was Brigadoom, which was done almost
entirely as a musical about the destruction of Kai's planet. I burned the
soundtrack of that to CD and listen to it sometimes in the car.
