How so? I'd say it's just about fairly rated. It would be nice if they could update the CG. Old Star Trek still looks good because of practical effects.
I'm not completely trashing it. It's certainly far superior than anything that passes for sci fi on television now. I just think DS9 was better. So were most other sci fi shows on TV around that time. Stargate SG-1, Andromeda for the first couple of seasons. Sliders. SeaQuest. Even Earth: Final Conflict, although it wasn't great. I've never really enjoyed Stracynski's writing style. I think his dialogue is overblown and pretentious, I don't think his characters act like real people and I think his ego takes priority over the story far too often, especially in B5.
That's certainly fair. I'll admit, I do personally find some spots throughout the series occasionally ho hum, but then there's other aspects that I found rather ingenious. I don't know how else to describe it, since I don't think "mixed bag" is very fitting either.
B5 is overrated. Unpopular opinion, but it is.
