Science Fiction vs. Fantasy How do you catagorise them? What are the differences in you opinion?
I remember when I was younger, I absolutely hated any novel that could be considered "science-fiction," probably because of how I associated it with pop culture. However, recently a good friend of mine has introduced my to beauty that is the BBC show Doctor Who and I am in love. (And I adore the 10th Doctor, but the 9th is MY Doctor wink ) I've also been reading Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and I have no idea why I didn't read it before; it's absolutely beyond brilliant.
Additionally, how would you classify a show such as Supernatural, which deals with science, religion, and folklore?
(Gratuitous Show picture because Aeliara may or may not be an unabashed, hand flapping fangirl.)

I am a major Sci-fi fan, but I am also a fantasy fan as well as Supernatural. The supernatural and paranormal seem to tie into Sci-fi alot because of aliens, ghosts. There many scifi shows out there and most of them seem to deal with outerspace or extremely ugly looking aliens that intend to kill us. I do think that somethings can be underboth classifications, such as Tinman and Legend of earthsea. both mini series were on the scifi channel,but they also have an element of fantasy to them. Fantasy tends to revolve around princesses, wizards and magic spells, both of which are in Tinman and Earthsea, however Tinman deals with alien like sucking of people's souls, funky looking monkeys and the pepe which are alien like creatures that want to tear your flesh off and Earthsea also has they same kind of creatures.
So, Sci-fi vs Fantasy?
My answer, you can't have one, without the other.
