Never could get into SG, and I really gave it a try.

Farscape didn’t manage to captivate me in its first half season in the 90s which was too bad. I binged it with one of our household a few years back and love it now. It definitely suffered a post-TOS-like roughish Star Trek start to find its own voice and style.

B5’s first season was made awful by the declining health of its lead that led to an interminable performance. I gave the second season a try, despite my concerns that Boxleitner would give too much of an All-American hero performance. He was great in the role and I became a solid B5 fan to the end.

Two 1970s shows that are worthy of a watch, even if mostly only available on physical media, are Space 1999 and The Starlost. Both were significantly serialized in an era of episodic television, and both suffered bumpy starts and early cancellation. They still are far ahead of their time and the norms of 70s television.
