I grew up on TNG (my favourite of the five series, by far), and I also admired DS9 a lot for going in a completely different direction from the others. That series made use of the continuous plot arc style as well, and it was one of the earlier ones to do so.
You didn't like Serenity? :(
I like Stargate pretty well, though I need to be in the mood for it sometimes. I don't really follow SGA, though I have watched a couple eps. But the original: I love shows that can make fun of themselves, definitely. Always intelligent, that one. And I just know that Ben Browder's character in Farscape was templated off the snarky Jack O'Neil (though they made John Crichton much more pessimistically sardonic).
