If you want to criticise bad science, you're better off picking a series that takes itself fairly seriously, and in which the poor science undermines the credibility of the story.

They weren't supposed to be 5 shows. They were 5 facts that the story writers sucked at taking into account. And it could have been from 1 to 5 different shows. I just picked 2 shows to take 5 facts from. And while Power Rangers is SUPPOSED to be for kids, I find most science fiction shows including Power Rangers to be interesting, and I'm 24 years old. If any show has enough aliens, laser guns, space ships, and kickass robots, or magic and swords and wizards, or any combination of sci-fi and fantasy genres, it is interesting to me. I don't care whether it's Power Rangers in Space, or Star Trek: The Next Generation. If it's sci-fi, I will tend to like it. I do draw a line though. I don't for example care to watch Peter Pan (unless I'm watching it to "reminisce" about my childhood, as everyone periodically wants to "go down memory lane"), as that movie is WAY TOO obviously for little kids, even though it does have the science fiction aspect of space travel and I could use it as an example of when a sci-fi movie neglects to give people space suits as they are traveling between planets with no space craft at all.
But now I want to here from others who would like to share any shows and/or movies that have bad science.
