Ladies and gentlemen, I think Norgol will be making an appearance in my classroom next spring.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Ooh, definitely Bradbury! I loooove "The Green Morning" from The Martian Chronicles!

Hitchhiker! Of course! Because it has so many things to say about sci-fi! And Futurama, for the same reasons!

Have you read any H.P. Lovecraft? Very excellent, but more horror-that-happens-to-be-sci-fi than real sci-fi.

Speaking of which, somebody mentioned Doctor Who Yes! Specifically, "Silence in the Library" (the latest one Moffat wrote) or "Midnight." Both non-Earth-centric!

I haven't seen Serenity yet (arg, must Netflix!), but definitely something Firefly-ish would be good, as an example of mixing genres.

Have you seen Hyperdrive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperdrive_(TV_series))? It's not uniformly awesome, but it's sci-fi satire (hits Star Trek pretty hard), and has many lols. Also, points for non-American.

Robert A. Heinlein's Have Spacesuit, Will Travel is Old Skool YA sci-fi, cute and thoughtful and a quick read.
