Query: Best Drama Not on HBO

I am not a big fan of the sci-fi genre and shows with weird aliens and inter-galatic wars turn me off big time. However Battlestar is far from a typical sci-fi show, it's more of a deep and dark tale about human survival and politics than anything else. The acting and writing is top notch and each episode there is a feeling of impending doom which is uncommon in today's tv landscape of neatly tied up procedural crime shows. This is show easily tops anything the networks have to offer and is the best show period that's not named the Wire, Deadwood or the Sopranos.
