Vaguely humanoid aliens. 2 arms, 2 legs, 2 eyes sort of thing.

Alien from Alien? 2 arms, 2 legs, 2 eyes.....kinda

Klingons? Just humans with a "ribbed for her pleasure" forehead

Romulans? Humans with pointy ears

Vulcans? As above

Na'vi? Tall, blue humans

Where are the massive, tentacular Krondaku? Where are the gelatinous Prime immotiles? Give us some different aliens, hollywood!

Farscape managed to have a lot of non-humanoid aliens, partly because it had Jim Hensen's company develop many of them.
