Not “Star Trek” or “Star Wars”, but a completely different production is considered the best science fiction series of all time according to IMDb. Starring: “The Rookie” star Nathan Fillion!

Nathan Fillion hasn’t been able to convince us in a leading role in the cinema, but the charismatic “The Rookie” star has become an integral part of the TV landscape. Before he served justice as police officer John Nolan, crime fans already knew Fillion from “Castle.”
The Rookie: When will season 6 be released in German?
You still have to be patient
“The Rookie” season 6 has long been released in Germany. But we still have to wait for the dubbed version. Then the new episodes will appear in German.
Fillion also left a lasting impression in “Desperate Housewives” and “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, but in 2002 he landed one of his most important and iconic series leading roles.

Showrunner and director Joss Whedon’s reputation has suffered in recent years, but in the early 2000s, “Buffy” saw him emerge as the voice of a new generation. Shortly before the end of the series, he dedicated himself to the science fiction genre with “Firefly – The Dawn of Serenity”.
However, after a season with 14 episodes, the Serenity flight ended again, which fans still blame the US broadcaster Fox for to this day. The irregular release of the episodes, which were also broadcast in the wrong order, put off the audience and the ratings were correspondingly poor.
However, “Firefly” became a hit on DVD and so Universal even had a feature film made with “Serenity – Escape to New Worlds” to give the story a well-rounded ending.

Over 20 years after the series finale, fans have come to terms with the end of the series but continue to appreciate it. This also explains why “Firefly” is the most popular science fiction series in the online database IMDb with a rating of 9.0.
You can stream “Firefly” on Disney+, but “Serenity” is not included in any streaming subscription and can only be rented or purchased, for example from Amazon or Apple TV. By the way, Nathan Fillion can currently be seen in the 6th season of “The Rookie”.
