A show ahead of its time revisited
I don’t want to diagnose any conditions but can I assign some? I’m enjoying the varying opinions and occasionally tortured views of the people viewing the series. I would throw out that even with the series arc it’s still meant to be a TV show, corny random scenes and all. The characters are going to have the familiarity with each other that any office or workplace show is going to have. It’d get pretty tedious if all the characters stuck to formal military protocol with each other. I remember grasping at theories and hypotheses with every new episode, just like the show Lost, which must owe some inspiration to B5. The hosts are coming up with some great new ideas and are catching details I’d previously missed. Since you’ve brought up the B5 toys, how about discussing a few of the games that developed (sometimes) cult following, like Babylon 5 Wars and A Call To Arms. My one request is, why aren’t I hearing more about Keffer?
