OP is so happy

Oh man, you guys are the best.

I just couldn't get into the fandom because I remember seeing someone bitching about Dr. Franklin and Ivanova and I just went, "But...but they're cool. They're all cool. Why the hate?"

I only saw seasons 3 and 4, and now I'm two episodes away from the complete series after watching it from start to finish. I so badly wish that there was another show like this with little bits updated and some better effects.

Not gonna lie that I kinda thought of Byron as just a slightly more annoying Evil Replacement Marcus, but I got what they were going for with his character and the larger story at hand. I really have to say the worst thing someone can say against it is that you do start to see how it was constrained by the time of its creation. There's only so much you could get away with on TV.

Anyone heard anything about the reboot?

In my experience, this is one the most loving fandoms around. Characters may get mocked for certain traits, but to me it mostly seems to be done out of love; some people may actually dislike a character here or there, but the overall fandom consensus tends towards love for pretty much everyone. About the only characters I see a lot of fandom gets down on are Keffer and Byron and even then a lot of it's kind of tongue in cheek. Back in the day Lockley was a somewhat acceptable target, but doesn't seem to be anymore.

But I worry that the reboot may be the thing that breaks this fandom love fest. I see most people being optimistic about it though, because as a group I think we love JMS's world too much to doubt him too hard; even if personally I have my doubts whether B5 can work as a movie (but I know myself well enough to know that come hell or high water or attack by the First Ones, I'll be there opening day if it happens).
