Babylon 5 1994–1998, one of my all-time favourites. Set on a future space station, with a 5-season arc, it reached its peak in Seasons 3 and 4 with the war on The Shadows. Fabulous storytelling. I’ve rewatched this numerous times. 📺
Bruce Steinberg I still remember checking the TV Guide every week to see when UPN would deign to schedule it. Tuesday at 2am? Friday at 1:30am? //@sproutlight
David Sinclair Yep, one of my all-time faves, too. I'm looking forward to rewatching it, probably after we finish our Star Trek rewatch (currently mid-TNG, so it'll be a while).
Miraz Jordan @sproutlight 👍 And it prodded other shows to actually have an arc, like ST:DS9, for example.
Miraz Jordan @Bruce Urk, that's obnoxious. In NZ it played on a weekend afternoon.
Miraz Jordan @dejus I think time is wearing on it a little, though. I stalled last year in a rewatch. Might have just been me…
Pete Brown B5 was amazing. Its absence from most of the streaming services and the lack of an HD release (unlikely we’ll ever get one) is a crime. I feel like it is the Blake’s 7 of my generation—a groundbreaking series that is nearly lost to history.
Miraz Jordan @petebrown Yes, it should at least be available somewhere like Netflix.
Pete Brown it used to be available on Amazon Prime here in the States, but disappeared from the service earlier this year.
Miraz Jordan @petebrown That's a pity. Pretty sure I have my own copies (I used to have all the DVDs and should have ripped them), but did start buying from iTunes Store umm last year.
