Ilove sci-fi shows because they pull me into another world and, honestly, they are a way for me to escape reality. I still remember watching my first episode of The X-Files late at night, half scared, half in awe, or binging Stranger Things when I should’ve been studying, but could not. These shows became my late-night companions, and little windows into bigger questions about who we are, what we believe, and the kind of future we imagine for ourselves.
The truth is, whenever I watch something, I want to feel extreme emotions and mental stimulation , which I can only get after watching a good science fiction. Though most of such shows do not stay the same throughout. Some start strong but collapse under messy writing, and some fade before reaching their full potential. B
