Chevy Slyme posted:The Something Awful Forums > The Finer Arts > The Sci-Fi Wifi > Babylon 5 blind watch thread: does subtlety really pay when you're talking about fascism? That bit is one of the reasons why I like that episode, and I was surprised it was listed as a "skippable" one.

One of the reasons the show is great is that the story is evergreen. We will always be able to tie it to something in our lives because it's just...people being people.

F_Shit_Fitzgerald posted:o The fighters in B5 are even more X-wing like than Vipers in BSG. In fact, a lot of the space segments are very reminiscent to me of BSG. BSG, B5, and the Expanse are about the only shows that are even close to realistic space maneuvering in sci fi tv shows, so that makes sense.

Tom Guycot posted:Ugh... maybe I made a mistake starting this show. However well done it may be, I'm not sure I'm up for more "make you feel like poo poo" tv. This really isn't a show that revels in making the viewer feel that way. There are lots of other themes and feelings besides that one

Earth really isn't that important in the grand scheme of things. It's going to look more important watching the show because the show takes place on Earth station. Look at the ambassadors they sent.

To save anyone from accidental googles, the Be Five is a jazz band that had a good chunk of the main cast as vocals, with Mumy writing most of the songs. They made one album. Mostly it was Mumy, Christian, Jurasik, Furlan, and Katsulas. Tallman sang backup on two tracks.
