B5 or BSG

[Al B. Sure!]

The point is that a fun, tongue-in-cheek series is better than some droning boring so serious show about humans running away from robots and stories about relationships Battlestar Galactica is like a chick flick in space.


Red Dwarf is good too.

[Al B. Sure!]

Oh and I think Star Trek was panned by critics when it first came out Look how that turned out.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Al is like the most useless poster ever. Preferring Stargate to the new BSG? What in the Holy Heck?

[Hauldren Collider]

FACT: BSG has more Vipers than Stargate.

CONCLUSION: BSG is better than Stargate.

[Alpha Protocol]

Both are great, but I'm going to have to say BSG.

This is how I rate the B5 actors:
G'kar(Andreas Katsulas)..............Brilliant, carried the show
Londo Mollari(Peter Jurasik..........Excellent
Vir Cotto(Stephen Furst)............Very Good
Michael Garibaldi(Jerry Dole)........Very Good
Susan Ivanova(Claudia Christion)..Okay(for the role)
Dr. Franklin(Richard Biggs)...........Passable, barely
Zack Allan(Jeff Conaway)............Eh
Lyta(Patricia Tallman).................Bad
Marcus Cole(Jason Carter)...........Hilariously Bad/Corny
Lenneir(Bill Mumy)......................Annoying as hell
Sheridan(Bruce Boxleitner)...........Atrocious
Delenn(Mira Furlan)....................**** on a stick

[C0ckney]

b5 was great, one of my favourite pieces of sci-fi. old school battlestar galatica was cool too. i've never seen the new one.

stargate was a crappy film, and i think i remember watching two of the series and thinking what a pile of ****.

I think I'd put the Londo actor on top. And you forgot Mr. Morden

Overall, as much as I liked B5, I'd still say nBSG is teh rul0rZ, despite some weak eps. there too.

[Cort Haus]

Didn't see BSG, but I did enjoy B5. Some good political parables, especially over war-propaganda.

[Cort Haus]

Yeah, Londo was great - though partly because he was, as an interesting character, given some of the best lines.

[Hauldren Collider]

G'kar was downright hilarious in places. Ivanova was kind of interesting, but both the commanders of the station (guy played by Boxleitner and the other dude who was like Space Jesus) were really annoying and stupid.

Dr. Franklin was probably the most annoying character in my opinion though. Even more than Delenn.

[Bugs ****ing Bunny]

First four episodes of new BSG series 3. With the Iraq occupation still raging, US TV is treated to an overt comment on the war by a popular TV show in which the good guys respond to occupation by becoming suicide bombers attacking the new regime's police recruits.

Sod tripe for kids like Babylon 5. That's the sort of thing TV was made for.

[BeBMan]

Ivanova was kind of interesting, (...)

She was hot, but there should have been some hot lesbian stuff with that T(h?)alia Winters girl later in the show. Too bad the Psi Corps spoiled everything

And HC liked that show?

That just shows you how stupid that show is. Aren't the enemy of the good guys a bunch of robots?

How the hell are terrorist tactics supposed to work on robots?

[Hauldren Collider]

Watch the show, THEN comment, dumbass.
