It was the dawn of the third age of mankind... and of decent scifi serialization.

This is basically how my friend eventually explained why they like watching reaction videos - because it's the closest they'll come to feeling that joy from the first time watching. I still don't like reaction videos, but I understand a little more now why some people watch them.

Yes, that is one of the big reasons why I like reaction visldeos. Such a joy people seeing something you live for the first time

I love watching reaction videos for various movies and TV shows for the same reason as well!

This makes me think of two things:

1) I first saw B5 in the mid-aughts, when a friend who loved it decided that he wanted a bunch of us should see it. We met once a week for two years or so to cook dinner together and marathon the show. He absolutely got the pleasure you're describing out of seeing and hearing our reactions.

2) This is why I like watching streams and YouTube videos of people playing Outer Wilds. It's a game you can only really play once, because the entire world is a puzzle, and once you've solved it, there's no way to go back to before you solved it, if that makes sense. The only way to re-capture the feeling of playing it for the first time is to watch others explore and discover and figure things out.

This is all to say that I get you, OP.

Honestly, most of the time "first time" isn't that big a thing for me. I love things repeatedly. If I really love something, I want to watch over and over again. And I can often catch new things with each rewatch. So while I love Babylon 5, I don't really feel the desire to have that first time again. It is still an amazing show, I still love it.

Yeah, I love rewatching things too and picking up on something I never noticed before.
