I like it... not as much as you... not nearly as much as you... but I like it.

I liked it, better than many of the other sci-fi shows on public television

My wife and I watch it every week. We don't have cable, so we can't see the current season or Stargate: Atlantis, but our UPN station plays last seasons episodes. We also watched Babylon 5 until it switched to a cable channel. I noticed my library has some Babylon 5 episodes on video, so I'll check them out sometime.

Stargate SG1 is as good as ever except that Teal'c has hair.. not that I have a problem with that. I'm not a big fan of Atlantis it just lacks that certain Jack O'neil quality that SG1 has.

Babylon 5 is one of the best epic series I've ever seen I suggest netflix if you want to watch it (or any other series) striaght through. This is what I and my friends did with it. It's one of those shows that was mainly all writen before a camera was even turned on so it's good to see in order.

You're right in that Atlantis is not as good as the original, but I still like it. It did feel a bit like sg1 in a different gaxaly when I first saw it, but hopefully it will develop more of it's own character over time.

Yeah B5 is so well written, I still think a full length feature film would be spectacular. I did notice, when I watched the series recently, that my past feelings that there was something lacking as the seasons went on was still there. There was a certain eire(sp) quality or feeling that the last 2 seasons were never able to replicate. I think perhaps that it has something to do with the fact that Fox took notice of them for the last 2 seasons and didn't leave as much control with the writers and other B5 team members, the last 2 seasons had more of a "mainstream" feel. But it's still great, and interesting how all the races are based on human characteristics and races throughout history. It's almost a different way of presenting all the different views of this world in a different format.
