I stopped B5 after the resolution of the shadow wars. which apparently only needed a plucky American to explain that that whole thing was pointless and they all just went away.
Yes. And do so knowing that the whole thing was supposed to be a five season arc, then they got told “no you get four” so hastily wrapped up the war only to be told “have another season!”
So they pulled an entire season out of their arse on the fly and in this year it is very. Very relevant
That arc is great. The followup is the earth civil war arc which is pretty great. You won’t enjoy the last season, even though I find a lot of it good.

Should I continue?
