Best Intro
Which season intro do you think was B5's best?
I'm going to say Season 5's, though Season 4's is a very close second.

Re: Best Intro
Season 3 so far but I'm holding off on voting until I'm to season 5.

I liked the lower pitch theme tune of season one, but the desperation and combat in season three's just canna be beaten.

Re: Best Intro
Where I liked 3, I liked 4 just a little bit more. I loved seeing everything coming together.

Re: Best Intro
I really like the Season 5 intro. The tendency of the others to sort of tell the premise of the show that far was cool but also really cheesy for some reason. Season 5 was both epic and subtle/less cheesy than the others. Season 5 was really interesting for me because of how the first half was kind of recovering from some of the things that went unplanned. But particularly in the second half, when a few characters' destinies became apparent and things started getting wrapped up. I just remember how overwhelmed I felt with memories of the series as I watched the intro for that season. Gosh, finishing up that show was a really emotional time for me, as silly as that may sound.

It sounds not at all silly. I agree with you wholeheartedly. It was emotional for JMS to write it.Chris Propst wrote:Gosh, finishing up that show was a really emotional time for me, as silly as that may sound.

Re: Best Intro
When it comes to the story line, B5 is the best scifi show out there. It would be silly if it didn't have some effect on you, being a fan of course.

Re: Best Intro
Definitely an amazing show. I finished it around the time that Andreas Katsulas died, so it was even more significant to me. I must say my favorite part of the whole story was the Londo/G'Kar relationship.
Gosh, that show was ended so brilliantly. Every character addressed and given a great story. I can't wait to go through this show again.

Re: Best Intro
Its rare to have a show you can watch from start to finish, over and over while loving it every time. B5 was just that kind of show.
