Science Fiction recommendation?

Yesterday I went to Chapters in mind to get some new sci fi books, but I couldn't find anything interesting. I find myself in the cycle of looking at same authors and I'm looking for something new.
Generally I like space opera sci fi, but I'll read anything good. Anyone read any good sci fi lately?
On that note, what the hell happened to sci fi on TV? Battlestar Galactica doesn't do anything for me, and Stargate is meh.
Only few years ago there were load of sci fi, but now I can't even find anything good.
I just found Starhunter which is one of those Cowboy Bebop rip off which is mildly interesting (and found out it's a Canadian production) but it's only one season long. So I need good sci fi series to look at too. |

For a sci-fi, it really goes in depth about human nature...
I enjoyed reading this novel. |

| Probably read it but Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson is a great science fiction book. |
