Babylon 5 is the only sci fi show that both my wife and I absolutely hated.. awful writing with TONS of plotholes, horrid acting, and it didn't tie up a majority of the loose ends at the end of the series.. awful show.

shadow9d9 was probably one out of a million who probably did not understand the plot lines.

Babylon5 rocked!

My wife too.. and it wasn't about not understanding.. it was simple simple stuff... the problem was the ton of plotholes and inconsistencies and nonsensical happenings... and the fact that they overplayed the same ideas... etc...

Like reversing polarity and reconfiguring the deflector dish to emit the soup of the day to save the day at the end of every episode?

B5 no question. The storyline is what made it an amazing series.

DB9 > all that crap

That was TNG... I have a feeling you never watched DS9 past season 1... considering DS9 had many episodes where the good guys lost...

Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges (bashir loses), the Die is Cast (attack against the dominion completely thwarted), The Quickening (mostdied), Valiant (entire cadet ship destroyed with everyone on board), Call to Arms (lost ds9), first 5 episodes of season 6 (all downhill) ...every episode except the last with Eddington, the episode where Nog loses his leg and the following episode dealing with the repurcussions, the episode with the destruction of the Defiant, shakaar/jadzia/bareil/Ziyal/Damar's deaths... etc etc . and that is just off the top of my head!

Ds9 almost never "saved the day at the end of every episode"... again, only someone who didn't watch the show would say that...

Babylon 5 is for gays.

Not being able to post for two weeks must be killing The Battosai, especially after reading this thread!

"You have a feeling?" Wow, you would suck as ship's counselor. You would only be able to make the obvious calls like, "Captain, I sense hostility!" "What was your first clue, b!tch, the fact that they're shooting at us?"

In regards to the deflector dish, I do realize that was TNG. You need to have Scotty check out your Sarcasm Detector.

I was wondering what ideas you think they overplayed in B5.

They really could have played on "The One" but didn't. I can't think of any one thing except the crappy telepath crap at the end of the series.

In order of preference:
B5
Farscape
STNG
Stargate
.
.
.
.
All the rest

DS9: I kept going back because I really liked Sisko. But the show just grated on my nerves. And what did they call him? Not messiah, but something similar. I forget now. That got so played out...

The Emissary?

One thing I did like with DS9 were the humorous episodes. They didn't take themselves too seriously like they did with DS9. Episodes like "Our Man Bashere" and the one where the Ferengi crashed at Roswell were great. :laugh:

Funniest B5 episode is the one with Scott Adams doing a cameo. He was trying to hire Garibaldi to find his dog and cat. Something like "what can you tell me about him?" "He is trying to take over the world" Reference is to Dogbert if you did not pick up on Scott Adams who writes Dilbert.
