I ended up watching Caretaker a bit for the first time in nearly 20 years. "You want water?! We'll give you water! We bath in this! In fact, some of us bath in actual mud, which is dirt with water in it, and then we bath again with water. We literally defecate in this stuff and flush it down a tube." (Maybe we shouldn't be so casual about letting everyone know we can replicate matter on the fly after learning how rare water is everywhere in this region of space.)

Can achieve warp travel and build the infrastructure needed to support the construction of spacecraft. Can't secure or produce water.

The biggest shame of Voyager: The betazoid pilot dying in Caretaker. 90 seconds of screentime and more interesting and likeable than anyone but the Doctor.

Babylon 5 is still good. Honestly, the grafix aren't that bad. What really detracts from the space fight scenes is that they're all in SD when the rest of the show is widescreen. It's not noticeably worse than a Star Trek of comparable era and configuration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qexwPP7bl7M

"Who Mourns for Adonis?" S2E2 "You are wise… for a woman." Enterprise encounters the god Apollo. There's a lot of Hays Code innuendo code going on in this one and some of it seems non-consensualish. Apollo gets plunked and betaed.

I tried to rewatch B5 a couple years ago and those effects from the first few episodes...  Looks like a cutscene from a '93 video game: not good.

It was never the effects the made b5 hard for me to get into, it was just really lovely dialog and acting and a general cheap fan-film sort of feel to everything. I hear the overall season to season plot is interesting, but the episode to episode plots are pretty ho-hum so the reward is only in the long haul.

Nerds like B5 because of a) space battles, b) space war, c) continuity, and d) occasional lampshading of sci-fi tropes. That's it.

B5 was ponderously loving slow, wasting a bunch of time to exposit or outright demonstrate garbage setting minutiae. SPACE CAPTAIN TRON: "Does anyone know what happens when you open a space warp zone inside a space warp zone?" CORNFIELD THE BONE ELF: *gropes crystals, appears peevish* "According to my instruments, sir, literally no one in the audience cares." TRON: "Let's do it!!! In a like five minute long scene!!!!!" * smash cut to Tron's elfwife, emoting Croatianly *

Remember when all those B5 space sim games came out that used Newtonian motion? Super warp to this planet! Oh you wanted to speed it up? Well gently caress you it takes you just as long to decelerate now you're lost in hyperspace. Lol

Best 90s CGI is Seaquest because the ocean is so dark and hazy you can barely see anything beyond vague shapes.

FilthyImp posted:Remember when all those B5 space sim games came out that used Newtonian motion? Sierra was apparently very close to finishing a B5 space combat sim in the 90s when, for some reason, the project was cancelled. I guess you'd be flying Starfuries and even White Stars. It had sort of a pre-Matrix games thing going on where they were going to weave in the game's story into the continuity of the series and the actors from the show were doing FMV cutscene stuff, making sort of an episode of the show or something. A guy I knew was talking about even after several years, none of the footage or stories had been released.

If B5 didn't have Londo and G'Kar hamming it up, the series would have little to no redeeming qualities whatsoever. Now you can probably find a list of episodes focusing on the interaction between those two and skip the rest of the horrible slog.
