Babylon 5...loved the first three and a half seasons.  After that, some episodes were better than others. 


I completely agree.  From best to worst, I rank the seasons 3, 2, 1/4, 4/1, 5.

I wonder how much better the 5th season could have been if (a) they knew earlier that there would be a fifth season and (b) they would have been able to keep Claudia Christian.


It would have been significantly better.  Season 5 was so bad that almost any structural change would have been an improvement.

Tracy Scoggins did a good job as Captain Lochley, but it would have been better to see Ivanova in that position.


I agree.  I never cared for the Lochley character, nor did most other fans.  I feel bad for Tracy Scoggins, though, because she got a lot of crap from the fans that she didn't deserve.  It was just a sh*tty situation all around.

One of the things I liked about the final season of Stargate: Atlantis was having Robert Picardo's Woosley in charge.  That just made for an interesting character dynamic because he goes from a position of second guessing everyone's command decisions after the fact and informing them what they should have done and into the position of actual command and learning that you can't always go by the book.


I must have bailed out of that show before it got to that point, because I don't remember Picardo appearing on the show.

I've been watching The 100, mostly in the background when I'm doing other things. But man, is that a show that has no idea what it wants to be. Seems to rehash the same plot lines and character struggles. It has a few cool moments in the drudgery, but overall won't recommend this one.

There's a few recommendations I've seen pop up in this thread I've meant to get to, but only so many hours in a day.

Kind of like what I saw a writer say about Captain Kirk the other day.  Basically, Kirk saw rules and laws as guidelines and did whatever he wanted anyway.

... and Dark Winds...which is an amazing show, IMHO. Believe they're getting a 3rd season!...


I'll co-sign Dark Winds. Well worth the viewing.

Also love the first season of Continuum (the one with Kiera Cameron) and any Stargate SG-1 episode.  Especially with Jack.  And Firefly (of course!)

I've been watching some Acorn TV and lots of Roku reruns.  Can't go wrong with The Rockford Files, which my cats also LOVE.  They watch it when I'm not home.

Considering AMC+ again to watch A Discovery of Witches (love the first season especially) and Dark Winds...which is an amazing show, IMHO. Believe they're getting a 3rd season!

And I'm re-watching all of Signed, Sealed, Delivered on Hallmark because they're finally going to make 2 more movies.  My TV shows are much like my books.  I like a variety of genres.  :angel:

Just finished binging all five seaons of Fargo.  I refused to watch it when it came out because I felt it would be a rip-off of the movie. I was wrong.

Seasons 2 and 5 are the best, followed by 1, 3 and 4 in order of preference.
