There have been a few hosts on this podcast that have been lost along the way but I will never forget Kefler and hope for his sweet return for the finale.

If you’re new to the show or remember searching for what insane hour the next episode would air, this is the Babylon 5 podcast you’re searching for. I love the different takes a mixed group of newbies and fans of old brings. It feels like early days talking with fans — perhaps even _more_...Read full review »

Always a fun, smart and wonderfully unhinged show. The best shows are a group of friends who know each other well, mostly get along and know how to make each other laugh. This group of friends are really great at that. They tease each other incessantly, know how to derail a train of thought, and...Read full review »

Great mix of new and old, it’s a clever format that puts this podcast above most other episode review style shows. I’ve been waiting for the main host to take a week off as he’s the only downside to this show, this week’s episode gives me the chance to rate…5 Stars!!

I’ve been listening since “Between the Darkness and the Light” at the end of season 4 and very much look forward to each new episode. I’ve watched and rewatched B5 since the beginning and in the 90s eagerly awaited Lurker’s Guide new postings. You guys give me the same feels. I’m probably the...Read full review »

I’m genuinely surprised by how much I’ve come to enjoy B5, largely due to this fantastic podcast. The character growth in B5 is compelling, and I love getting to know the podcast hosts through their discussions. As a newbie myself, I appreciate avoiding spoilers and am very curious about the...Read full review »

They are so scary. I can’t watch after they leave the universe.
JaredSch10 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/24
I’ll start off by saying I’ve watched Babylon 5 probably 6-7 times over start to finish. Since I discovered this podcast back near its inception I have enjoyed following along with this group of people. I love listening to both the First Ones and the newbies and how they interpret the episodes...Read full review »

I have really enjoyed the mix of opinions and hearing the newbies’ reactions to the show, great to hear their points of view change as the show went on .. I also appreciate the good sound quality as I’m usually on noisy public transport when listening!

Yes.
OverInDover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/24
Well, much like the TV show, this podcast wasn’t great at the start. It was messy audio, lots of anger , and for god sakes the pseudo-spoilers that Scott would give. With that being said they all grew on me. I actually look forward to this podcast - but seriously wish they would maybe fact check...Read full review »

A thoroughly enjoyable listen. I love Babylon 5 since it first aired. This podcast has really made me think about why I like the show. I love the mix of personalities on the podcast and look forward to it every week.
Danipeta via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/01/24
With a group of first time viewers and long time fans going over each episode spoiler free for the first timers and then with spoilers beyond the rim with the long time fans this show has something for everyone. And the cast being long time friends certainly helps as well. So check out the Grey...Read full review »

I am a first one that watched all of B5 when it aired and almost all of it (not much season 5) over and over again. I really enjoy the newbie’s perspectives on each episode and the beyond the rim section at the end of each podcast. Keep up the good work and help me get through season 5 with the...Read full review »
Greenlion1978 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/29/24
But I enjoy it. I enjoy it so much that I am even considering watching season five for the first time since the original airing.
wynstonsmyth via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/24
I am a First One who watched B5 when it first aired and have watched it many, many times since (except season 5; your newbies will understand why soon). I appreciate the analyses of your First Ones but especially enjoy the perspectives of your newbies as I am unable to watch B5 with any...Read full review »
Chao00011101 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/25/24
I do love the dynamic between the 1st Ones and the Newbies. Their predictions always entertains, as does the glee with which the 1st ones talk beyond the Rim about what they have coming. You can almost hear them chomping at the bit to say something. As a longtime B5 fan, i’m in the same boat :)...Read full review »

I’m a long time fan and multiple watcher of Babylon 5. And always looking for b5 podcasts and Finally found the perfect one. With the first time watchers discussion bringing their individual perspectives is so entertaining. The long time watchers discussing the entire series in beyond the rim...Read full review »

I’ve been a B5 fan from the pilot movie. But due to life and VCR snafu’s - I missed out on episodes and watched them completely out of order. Because of that I missed out on a lot of the prophecies and predictions. But Grey 17 has a good mix of First Ones and Newbies. The Newbies bring a...Read full review »

As a long time fan of Babylon 5 (I was there ‘in the beginning’) I really enjoy this podcast. I’d not rewatched the entire series since the DVDs came out so was well overdue, and this is the perfect accompaniment. Really like the combination of newbies who haven’t seen the show before and first...Read full review »

This is Really great podcast, I really enjoy the newbies predictions (some… are pretty spot on) I listen every week will continue to!! Great work!
Dahofrin via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/13/23
I first started watching Babylon 5 when it first aired and brought some close friends in for the ride. After the initial run, we spread it to other friends on reruns and delighted in their discovery of such a fantastic piece of media. The reason I love this podcast and its panel is because of...Read full review »

Love this podcast!
busdriverbuddha via Apple Podcasts · Brazil · 11/22/23
Wether you are new to Babylon 5 or have seen it many times it is always better to discuss it with others, this is a good companion series because of the mix of fans and new to both Babylon 5 and sci-fi in general cast members, even if some people seem to not watch the episode. They also named...Read full review »

I came back towards the end of season three to see if things had improved any as I had originally had high hopes for this show and there were lots of good things that were just wreaked by the negativity. I was happy to hear that the guy who seemed to be a major vortex for hate watching is no...Read full review »

Bringing together people who know the whole show together with fresh eyed viewers seemed like a bad idea, but this lot pull this off seamless. Listening to people with the wonder of what will happen next helps remind me of that feeling for my first watch through as well. The varied opinions and...Read full review »

I've been listening to you since the first episode and now it was time to leave you a few nice words. I've been a fan since the series started here in Germany in '95 and have watched it countless times since then. Over time, of course, you only see the big picture, so it's a real...Read full review »

The mix of perspectives on this podcast is excellent! I love hearing the analysis from the First Ones (Furst Ones?) alongside the reactions and insights from the hosts who haven't seen the show before. Including the voices of people new to sci-fi is brilliant, it's refreshing to hear...Read full review »

Fans of Babylon 5 will enjoy this unique perspective from new watchers and seasoned fans of the show. Don’t miss an episode!

I’ve been a fan of Babylon 5 since I randomly watched The Gathering when I was a nine. I’ve always been a sucker for anything with as space ship. That little girl had great taste because this is a show that I’ve come back to many times over the years. I love have a podcast to watch along with. I...Read full review »

Watching B5 in the 90s as a kid was a lot of fun, and revisiting as an adult gives insight and perspective I didn’t have as a kid. Having seen the whole show it’s both fun and refreshing to hear the newbies, and if I had never seen it I suggest watching along per episode. This podcast is one...Read full review »

I have been enjoying the Grey 17 Podcast for the past several weeks. I am an “Old One” who watched B5 back in the nineties and then hadn’t watched it in intervening years, due to lack of access, until Max made the series available again. When I stumbled upon the podcast I had no idea how...Read full review »

As always you guys are knocking out of the park. I look forward to your commentaries. What is interesting is the events of a 30 years ago television show reflects our modern day history. Please tell Jessie, Tim Choate aka Zathrus will play a part with our characters but not part of the Lady...Read full review »

Grey 17 is currently my favourite podcast! I’ve been watching Babylon 5 along with you guys, and I look forward to a new episode every week! I enjoyed Justin’s reaction video, please make more! I love all of your opinions (the “baby-lons” are my favourite.) Nicole, keep shipping, I’m shipping...Read full review »

Having watched the original and then “forcing” my adult children to watch ad well, your podcast is a joyous celebration of B5. I look forward to the honest use of tinfoil hats, changing ‘ships and ‘stans and the making of old ideas new again. I do hope that the newbies will also experience the...Read full review »

Listening to the newbies go from haters to totally engage by the 8th episodes was extremely satisfying.
greenchicken2 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/04/23
This podcast was recommended to me by a friend and it does not disappoint. I have loved B5 and really enjoy the whole Grey17 cast. The First Ones are really informative, but I love the Newbies take on the show and how it’s like watching the show through a fresh pair of eyes. I love the...Read full review »

I love the juxtaposition of the first time watchers and those like me who have seen it many times. I also really love all of the behind the scenes information from the making of the show. Good stuff!
Jacob Garfinkel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/23
What a great idea for a podcast, bringing together a group of long time fans and people who haven’t seen it, some of whom aren’t even necessarily fans of the genre. It’s wonderful to see how good writing can transcend the huge transformation TV shows have undergone since the show originally...Read full review »

With the JMS buzz f something big happening next week, I thought “there’s gotta be a podcast out there about B5”. Binged 12 episodes this weekend and am anticipating the ride thru the rest of the series.
