Unless they water it down next season, I consider the new BG every bit the equal to B5.
Agreed. Atlantis is good, but I don't it going to last as long as Sg1.. Sg1 is losing steam. Next season maybe the last we shall see. It depends how well it does without RDA
I never understood the attraction to B5. The aliens were cartoonish. Couldn't take it serious. Ranked right down there with the original Battlestar AFAIC.
Now, a truly great SciFi show that cut way too short was Space: Above and Beyond. The writing was actually about the people, as it should be. Looking back it reminds me of a cross between Star Ship Troopers and BG2.
