I have the series on DVD but I’ve never seriously cracked it, only seen a few episodes. Was wondering what people here think, is it as good as the internet often says it is? I know it was an inspiration for one of my favorite franchises (Mass Effect) and The Orville had a cute reference to it by making its main actor the president of the Planetary Union, but that’s the extent of my B5 knowledge. So anyway, should I binge the series?
Possibly… It’s true that people want instant gratification, and also true that pilots tend to kinda suck (see B5 actually).
I think these days the show creators have gotten better at hitting the ground running from the start.
