How is everyone liking the more "Contemporary" SF shows like Numb3rs and Medium ??
While some might quibble about calling shows placed in the Here and Now SF, they do fit more or less loosely into the definition:
SF is stories that explore the impact of Science on people and Events.
Numb3rs , IMO, is as much Mathobabble as genuine Math, but it does at least treat Science as a Useful, even Necessary, idea.
That's more than a Lot of shows do.
Medium could be defined as either Science or Fantasy depending on your personal feelings about whether Psychic phenomena will someday yield their secrets to Science or are the province of Religion & the Supernatural.
So, who wants to start the argument?
