   Depends on how you define "sit-com" and "sci-fi" to some degree, but   
   there has been:   
      
     - My Favourite Martian   
     - Quark   
     - Mork & Mindy   
     - ALF   
     - Third Rock From the Sun   
     - The Neighbors   
     - Metal Mickey   
     - Solar Opposites   
     - The Thundermans   
     - Hyperdrive   
     - Rick and Morty   
     - Small Wonder   
     - Inside Job   
     - We Are Not Alone   
      
   to name a few.  :-)
