I've probably watched all of B5 about 10 times or more. Going through another cycle right now. Just watched the first episode of season 2 today, having finished season 1 yesterday, so this is very fresh. I think if I was going to introduce a friend to it, I'd say to skip season 1 entirely.
There's a lot of stuff that feels like filler in season 1, even though I think quite a few of those episodes are actually trying to introduce lore in a sneaky way. Like, the Soul Hunter episode feels a lot like hot garbage, but it does put some important lore in your head. Similar with the episode that they find some ancient organic alien technology. Plus, I think everybody will instantly like Sheridan in a way that never happened with Sinclair.
I've grown to like season 1, but it took several watches before it stopped bothering me.
Do you have a source where to watch it? Star Trek is often available on streaming but I've not found B5 yet (in Germany).
I ended up "buying" it off of Amazon digital. Before I had "purchased" it, it had been variously bouncing around free or ad-supported streaming services like Prime and Tubi. I stopped paying attention to that stuff after I "bought" it, though.
(All that stuff in quotes because you don't really own it, but I'm at least using whatever I paid for.)
Thank you! I agree with the quotes. Something like DRM free GoG would be great for videos... but I also don't know any service like that.
Hum... Not from .world, I can't.
(Or seriously, in Brazil you can't legally watch it either.)
We need a GoG for videos...
Stremio, Torrentio and a VPN enter the room... ;)
If that's what they want...
Hey
Please check your DMs, you got unresolved reports from c/linux
hey. thanks. I just got back from holidays, I will go through reports and all soon-ish.
Hi, I've sent you a new DM
You just have to keep people tied up for the first 3 or 4 episodes. After that, they still won't like the show, but will be invested into so many questions that the first 5 seasons will barely answer any amount of them.
