Two more since we're bringing up 90s shows: Space: Above & Beyond and Earth 2.
The first is about space Marines fighting an alien enemy. It's gritty and dark with a pretty well fleshed-out universe complete with an AI rebellion, cloned soldiers, and awesome and pretty realistic space combat. CGI isn't bad for the 90s either.
The second is about a group of colonists who are trying to find a new world since living on space stations is making their kids sick. They crash land due to sabotage, and find that the planet is home to two sentient species and a smattering of prisoners and former colonists. The cast includes Tim Curry and Clancy Brown before he was Mr. Krabs.
I feel like Space: Above and Beyond was a fever dream I had as a kid. That show is probably why I love Halo so much.
