No sir. Not mice, not ice. No animals were harmed in the making of this riddle.

a scifi show

In my universe, telepaths are used to hunt down the guilty
A rotating space station is where all roads cross
Humans are only one race of many
Some beings breath CO and must wear space suits around all oxygen breathers.
The oddest beings are angelic but never seen as such.

They say that a sneeze is a mini-death...

Babylon 5

I remember when it came out I was so excited the special effects were done with an Amiga video toaster... 'cuz that's what I had

Really good show!

Good guess, but no. It does rhyme and the word "quickly" could be changed to "randomly"... and no humans were harmed in the making of this riddle

two dice?

Aye! That's it, dice. I probably cheated a bit using 'die' as a verb, but that just makes your answer all the cleverer

You will know that I am coming
From the jingle of my bell,
But exactly who I am is not an easy thing to tell.

Children, they adore me
for they find me jolly,
but I do not see them when the halls are decked with holly.

My job often leaves me frozen,
I am a man that all should know,
But I do not do business in times of sleet or ice or snow.

I travel much on business,
But no reindeer haul me around,
I do all my traveling firmly on the ground.

I love the time of Christmas,
But that's not my vocational season,
And I assure that is because of a sound economic reason.

Who am I?
