We don’t talk about the furries.
Not because we don’t like them, but because that shit’s complicated
Meanwhile, Babylon 5
The first season had the TV execs meddling to make it be like ST:TNG because they wanted to mimic the popular thing at the time.
The writer got his way starting in season 2 and got to tell his story without the meddling.
Yes it gets better is what I’m saying. 🙂
Season five is fucking great when you know the circumstances. This was a show with a meticulously planned five year arc. They abruptly got told “yeah nah, we’re cancelling you end of s4”. So a massive, massive rewrite to roll up and finish off the Shadow war and just after they pulled it off “actually the ratings pulled up, you can have your fifth season”
With no more arc.
So they pulled the entire fifth season out of their arses in a very short span of time. With no more story to tell. And you know what? It’s a fuckin’ testament to the skill of those involved it turned out half decent
What about Starhunter?
(please don’t tell me I’m the only one who ever watched this absolute trashfest of a series 😅)
