Re: There is plenty of original material

"There is plenty of original material for Sci Fi.

You can spend the next 100 years doing series with weekly episodes based just on Neil Asher's Polity universe or David Brin's Uplift universe."

Or classics as well as modern -

Hal Clement, Mission of Gravity

Arthur C Clarke, Childhood's End

Robert Heinlein, Starship Troopers (really based on the book, this time)

Keith Laumer, any of the Retief stories

Phillip K Dick, The Unteleported Man

Joe Haldeman, The Forever War

Greg Bear, The Forge of God

Patrick Tilley, Fade Out

James H Schmitz, The Demon Breed

Clifford Simak, The Big Front Yard

Frank Herbert, The Dragon in the Sea (British: Under Pressure)

Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle, Footfall

.... and so on ...
