The genre of science fiction can use the cover of space, unrealized tech, or the future to tell the stories about ourselves we're afraid to hear. By shielding topics in an otherworldly unreality, sci-fi has the capacity to dig deep into the most difficult, uncomfortable, and even appalling parts of our nature, nations, and selves. To better understand the impacts of sci-fi on our culture, Stacker pulled data on all sci-fi series of all time and ranked them according to IMDb user ratings as of Jan. 13, 2020), with No. 1 being the best. To qualify, the series had to have at least 10,000 votes and be in the English language. Limited series were also considered.
