Why did it only have one season?
Also Tv series thread
>>706428140
Because nobody watched it and it got cancelled
>>706428140
Can't go wrong with a good Space Western, it's a staple genre. (Trigun, desert punk, etc)
>>706428140
We arent allowed nice things.
Didn't the station that aired it show the episodes out of order?
B5 was better
>>706428266
it was pretty much just a wild west show set in space. Where's the audience? They're watching wild west shows, that's where they are.
>>706428140
Fox fucked it up
- bad airtime
- No promotions
- Aired the episode's random
>>706428382
B5 was shit
>>706428314
yes, they screwed up big time
>>706428140
because you touch yourself at night
>>706428140
You mean other than the fact that it sucked?
>>706428397
>>706428314
How do you even manage to be that retarded?
>>706428382 (You)
B5 was shit
I want to hear your arguments

fuck you, you no-taste-having, cocksucking turbofaggot
>>706428140
How do reavers clean their spears guys?
>>706428140
Because it sucked ass.
>>706428485
You probably like things with a lot of fart jokes so it can keep up with your short attention span.
Your wrong. Now leave.
>>706428485
>9.1/10 on IMDb

>>706428566
They put it through.... The Wash
>>706428527
Here are my arguments
Characters were shit, except for that egg head guy
Acting was shit
Music was shit
Chekhov was shit
Effects were shit
DS9 did it so much better
>>706428647
>cancelled
That's a fancy word for sucked. And the follow up movie feltched donkey ass.
>>706428140
because fox sucks
>>706428196
true. I never even heard of it until well after it had been cancelled. I was skimming channels late one night and landed on Serenity on HBO or Cinemax. Loved the movie, looked it up on imdb and found out about the series. Bought the dvd's at Target the next day.
Serious question though, any sci-fi shows you recommend?
>>706428754
Your wrong
Your wrong

Sorry man, your wrong.
>>706428796
>fancy word for sucked
Futurama got cancelled like 5 times right? So did a bunch of other really popular and highly rated shows. Your damage control is showing.
Dark Matter on Netflix is a decent Firefly wannabe show
>>706428796
>Fancy word for sucked
Holy mother of god no way your that stupid.
>>706428887
That's OK, we're all entitled to our opinions.
Mine is that B5 was crap.
Perhaps it got better, I couldn't stomach more than the first season.
Hey, at least it was better than Space Precinct.
>>706428874
see
>>706428965
>>706429062
>>706428965
If I were to review Dark Matter I would say it was "OK"
>>706429000
The music part irked me something fierce.
YOU CAN'T TAKE THE SKY FROM ME DAMMIT.
>>706428963
Because Futurama was worth bringing back. Firefly is the most mary sue scifi garbage ever regurgitated into a television.
>>706428874
The Expanse is one of the best things of any genre to come out this year. Its amaze-balls.
>>706428963
Futurama really is bad though. It's at best mildly funny, but not enough to actually laugh at.
>>706428720
Oh you fucking asshole.
>>706429170
Firefly song is the worst fucking theme song. i fucking hate it.
>>706429172
Keep meaning to watch that.
Worth it then?
The only show that matters right now is Peaky Blinders. Unless, of course, you're re-watching Deadwood or the Wire or Rome
>>706429177
Troll detected.
>>706429211
Also, :3

>>706429241
Star Trek Enterprise challenges your assertion
Here are my arguments
Characters were shit, except for that egg head guy
What about Londo Mollari and G'kar?
Acting was shit
It was cheesy but it had it moments like Londo G'kar Delenn and Garibaldi
Music was shit
Chekhov was shit
Yes he was
Effects were shit
Remember they we're made with Amiga software
DS9 did it so much better
Ds9 was good but different show.
Dont want to argue you opinion just want have converisition.
>>706429312
That's because both are current and not in Netflix anywhere as far as I'm aware
>>706429270
>Troll detected.
not even trolling. Futurama is boring.
>>706428140
It was boring and shit, and a poor live-action copy of Cowboy Bebop
>>706428140
Because FOX is watched by normies and if it had been picked up by the Sci-Fi Channel (before it's gay renaming) they wouldn't have been able to afford to pay Joss Whedon.
It's a bummer though. It was a fun show. I haven't had a good sci-fi show to watch since Battlestar Galactica ended. Am I missing anything?
>>706429334
seriously. i get embarrassed for everyone involved when the song starts.
>>706429422
oh, just took it for granted that it was just us getting fucked in the ass again
>>706428140
On par with pic related. Shit was gay as fuck. LGBT Star Trek.
>>706429346
>That last line though
Me Tarzan. You Jane
>>706429541
sad thing is, Fox gave Whedon another fucking TV show (Dollhouse) and killed that too.
>>706428843
>Summer pls
>>706429346
I keep meaning to go back and give it another chance.
I could not stand that guy with the hair and his retarded nephew. At least his interactions with the egg head guy (G'kar) were entertaining.
Watch the first episode again and cringe at the amount of blatant exposition. Such bad writing.
That opening scene "The name of the place is Babylon 5" is awful. Nobody speaks like that.
Yes the effects were done on the equivalent of an Amiga but maybe they shouldn't have been, because they were quite clearly shit.
My understanding is that DS9 actually used since of B5's rejected scripts early on.
>>706429640
Babylon 5
>>706429141
It's no Firefly, but I'm enjoying it so far. On season 1, episode 11. I suspect I'd like it even more if I'd never seen Firefly. I find myself making comparisons often.
>>706429312
>>706429422
Seasons 1 and 2 of Dark Matter are on Netflix here in the US. Up until this thread I thought it was a Netflix original.
>>706428140
Because Whedon is a giant fucking spineless faggot.
>>706428140
People who liked Firefly also liked:

>>706428140
Some show should do a gag where the characters go into an alternate universe and find Season 2 Firefly DVDs.
NO! WE HAVE TO BRING THEM BACK!!
Would be lulz.
>>706430049
no
no
no
and no, but people who like Dragon Ball Z like all of those things
>>706429896
We've recently started season 2 of DM. It's enjoyable enough but almost all the actors were in Continuum or Stargate. It's like watching an Australian soap opera.
I didn't know it was on Netflix, I believe it's a SyFy original.
>>706430092
back in the early days of Castle they had Nathan Fillion dress up in his Firefly outfit for a Halloween costume

>>706430138
Joke's on you, buttplug. I like King of the Hill. Now go sit on your rainbow dash cock, and think about what a faggot you are.
>>706428140
Firefly was the best. No stupid aliens, just humans in space. BSG was second best for the same reason. For aliens, Farscape was the best.
>>706430395
>>706430138
Mmmm, Morena Baccarin
>>706430452
>>706428616

>>706428397
Honestly, it was a fantastic show. For real.
God damned idiots at Fox....
>>706430495

>>706430564
I guarantee I'm old enough to be your daddy

>>706430610
Same. I mean why would one not?
>>706430746
Not that guy but
>aren't you fucking happy you're older
If there's something worse than little brats disrespecting elders it's elders using that as a "oh I'm better, know more and can be condescending" to people.
>>706430746
Adria is best Morena Baccarin
>>706428874
I'd recommend Blake's 7 to anyone who has not seen it. While the special effects are rather lousy, it is probably one of the best written and acted sci fi series ever.
>>706428140
Because it was shite . Cowboys in space wtf!.
Film was ok though
here is my beef about firefly
it feels like writers were told to write story about
life after usa civil war for a losing side
so they did, interesting characters, great episodes, a lot of work done
then directors come in and told them - ehh, it was just metaphorical you coke addicted fucks we wanted story based in future with those themes
and then writers went fuck it
train became space train, gun - a space gun
contraband - a space contraband
>>706430894
>>706428140
actually tried to watch this shit yesterday. Couldn't even get through the first half of episode one. And i'm into nerdy stuff. This feels xena the warrior princess-tier. (i e shit tier)
>>706431069
Let's be honest, none of us are going to watch Blake's 7 when there's too much current TV to watch
>>706431127
She was hot in V .
>>706431069
Not as good as dark matter
>>706428754
100% incorrect at least try
>>706430243
D'oh! I just checked and it's only season 1 on Netflix.
>>706431793
Even if it's opinion based (which it is), nobody can argue that those special effects were good. If we disagree on everything else those are indefensible.
>>706428754
Nah...
By the way, Firefly was the only show that depicted the true effect of engine noise in outerspace - none. Noise can't travel in vacuum. Take this sci-fi.
>>706429249
Definetly
>>706428140
It. Wasn't. Good.
>>706433064
Oh wow...that's what I told your mother a few days ago. Wow..
>>706433185
Fuck you, man. My mom died from watching Firefly...
>>706432150
>By the way, Firefly was the only show that depicted the true effect of engine noise in outerspace - none. Noise can't travel in vacuum. Take this sci-fi.
This is a fine detail and all, but don't kid yourself into thinking that it in any way, shape, or form makes for good TV.
>>706433553
Ok Mr. Shapeform, name 3 shows that are better than Firefly, and why?
>>706433862
>3 shows that are better than Firefly,
>Big Bang Theory because hilarious nerds
>Friends because hilarious friends
>Two and a Half Men because hilarious guy stuff
>>706433406
No, Fuck you, mom. My Firefly died from watching man.
>>706433981
Let me refrain.
3 SCI-FI shows
fucking moron
>>706433553
BSG - It had more than one season, and people watched it.
Star Trek - It had more than one season, and people watched it.
Earth: Final Conflict - It had more than one season, and people watched it.
>>706434173
>>706433981
Is someone else. Points are still valid though even though they don't follow the rules you made up after.
>>706434173
it's not a refrain if it's a different request
>>706428887
>No counter argument
>>706434227
Oh man, Earth: FInal Conflict was a piece of work! This was one of those that so bad, it was actually good. Felt...comfy watching it. Like Babylon 5.
>>706434333
Fuck you, you piece of shit.
>>706434337
what
>>706434533
>what
you meant to say "rephrase," imbecile.
>>706434533
It was Gene Roddenberry's most human vision of the future.
>>706434227
>More seasons means it's better
>omg new companies suck cause they dont start with a crapload of products in their product line
>omg others dont have my product it must suck
You're talking about marketing, sheeple. Marketing is there to sell you a product, not to give you the best product.
Please bring valid reasons.
>>706434868
What are you talking about?
The product is the show, which didn't sell, so it got cancelled.
There's nothing more to it.
>>706434868
>Please bring valid reasons.
ur a fgt
checkm8
>>706435079
That doesn't make it good at all.
You're kind of proving the point that you can, indeed, sell shit to people. And here we have someone defending shit.
exclusiveshit.jpeg
>>706435273
The point I'm making is that it's better because it didn't suck so bad that they didn't suck so bad that they got cancelled.
You're just arbitrarily saying that not sucking so bad that they got cancelled isn't a valid reason.
>>706428874
I love this show. It kinda has a teenagers are empowering bullshit theme behind it but the story is pretty good. If Fallout had a tv show it would be this.
>>706429062
Shit characters
That 26yo woman passing for a traumatized spastic teenager is cringe-worthy.
>>706430495
I had the biggest crush on Morena on Firefly. I really wish she was my Companion

saying you liked Firefly is like saying "I'm nerdy""i'm a gamer" "i'm a gamergurl lolxnerd"
People will vote anything a 10 to fit in
>>706434173
Space Above and Beyond was better. Why? because i say so
>>706428140
Because it actually fucking sucks.
Firefly wasn't good. Get off joss whedon's dick
>>706428140
Because it wasn't that good so nobody watched it and it couldn't sell enough ads to justify its existence.
>>706428140
Because it's fanbase's cock thirst is rivaled only by undertale fans.
>>706438630
Wow , so witty 1/10 faggot
Even Enterprise was better than Firefly. Farscape
Even non space shows like First Wave or Seven Days
>>706439980
About as witty as identifying as a made up faction in a mary sue sci-fi show. Stay cringey, my friend.
>>706428140
It was okay but River was useless and a waste of space. River, not Summer Glau who did the best she could with the terrible character she had. Serenity (the movie) should have focused on Shepherd Books back story which would have been more interesting than the physic thing which has been done to death.

Shepard was a brown coat who infiltrated the highest ranks in the Alliance. He had the single greatest victory against the alliance and was was left for dead on a moon. That is how he found God and became a shepherd.

Only watched b5 from the second season. Just got better and better. Went back and watched season 1.

Tell any friends skip s1
>>706442362
same for every star trek
>>706442362
>>706442551
I never watched Babylon 5 for real and I just realized that when I tried, the show was brand new so I guess I saw the shitty ones. With that in mind maybe I need to check it out again, although I wouldn't actually skip a season. But yes even my beloved TNG was goddamn atrocious in its first season. It can't be denied.
>>706443564
Wasn't babylon 5 a ds9 rip off?
>>706443730
From the little bit that I remember, I could see that, except didn't those two shows come out at right about the same time?
>>706443730
>>706443859
As an addendum, I loved DS9, even though, again, shit first season. It's my second favorite Star Trek.
>>706443730
DS9 came out first but people say DS9 was ripped off from B5 idea that was pitched to the studio. Studio then declined B5 only to make DS9
So I should watch the Expanse? That's the one thing I'm apparently taking away from this thread?
