Every episode isn't perfect -- every arc isn't fantastic. That doens't mean you don't enjoy the show!! Some of my favorite diner conversations are the "wouldn't it have been cool if they did this instead..." or "...oh they pulled a punch there..."

I have to say that the special effects are very dated on the first episode. it is almost a distraction.Buddhttp://budd.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-9332281918556390562008-12-04T07:13:00.000-08:002008-12-04T07:13:00.000-08:00Yes -- some of the FX are pretty weak.

I think the show stumbles through the first half-season or so before it finds its stride, but you shouldn't skip, b/c there are some important things in there. S2-4 completely rock.Steve Betzhttp://stevebetz.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-10931582270873759682008-12-04T12:38:00.000-08:002008-12-04T12:38:00.000-08:00Interestingly enough, I also just started watching...Interestingly enough, I also just started watching the first season of B5 just recently. I'm reserving comment until at least through Season 2 to give it a fair shake.Rosshttp://typeset.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-29423589181028220842008-12-07T04:38:00.000-08:002008-12-07T04:38:00.000-08:00One of the reason I liked B5 was because the speci...One of the reason I liked B5 was because the special effects and the technology isn't over the top...so no transporters etc...the main story arc is fabulous though and there are some hilarious episodes...stick with it.Princesskasrenhttp://purplepalace.vox.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18879570.post-32497325193343736672008-12-24T18:52:00.000-08:002008-12-24T18:52:00.000-08:00O, well, thank`s for the article that you wrote ar...O, well, thank`s for the article that you wrote article.

After all nothing's perfect and it's usually these imperfections that make it all interesting or discussion worthy.Personally I love BSG, one of the only shows I've actually watched consistently for more than a season.
