A good TV season of Sci-Fi ?

[stusegal]

I don't know about you, but I'm enjoying all the Sci-Fi on TV this year - and this is despite the absence of my two longtime favorites, Star Trek (yes, I'm a fan of all the iterations) and Dr. Who (I'm not a fan of all the Doctors - but I'm only not watching because I don't get BBC America).

Is there anything else good out there that I'm missing?

What I am watching is:

• Flash Forward - creative plot, mostly good acting
• Stargate Universe - surprised I like this, as I disliked all previous Stargates. But I'm a sucker for spaceships - and now they have a spaceship, and a stargate and magic stones - the only thing they lack is the "Guardian of Forever", but I'm sure they'll find a way to time travel too.
• Heroes
• Fringe - not quite as quirky as the first season, but still entertaining.
• Dollhouse - Hey, I like this show (the skimpy costumes don't hurt). But it's apparently cancelled and they're going to play out the remaining episodes in the next 2 months.
• Smallville - the plots have become so painful I've stopped watching (besides, isn't Superman supposed to fly . . . and how 'bout the phonebooth?)
• Sanctuary - I like the show, but Amanda Tapping's acting is beyond horrible. I can never tell if she's smiling or grimacing - she seems to have the same expression for every emotion.
• V - what could be better than deceptive all-powerful aliens surreptitiously taking over the planet? And eventually doing things too horrible to mention to the humans? Especially when we all know, and they don't.

So am I missing anything good?

I love FlashForward and like Stargate. Was sad to see that FlashForward is off the air for about three months.

Yes, I've noticed a bunch of programs going on hiatus, apparently so they don't conflict with the upcoming Winter Olympics. Has me a little mystified - hmmm, should I watch Stargate or men in tights dancing around on the ice? Not exactly a tough call.

Besides, TIVO and cable company DVRs have pretty much solved the problem of conflicts.
