TV Meme - Day 4
Hey, finally an easy day! This one didn't even take any thought.
Day 04 - Your favorite show ever
Babylon 5
While there are many shows I love - Firefly, Veronica Mars, Pushing Daisies, and Alias to name just a few - B5 stands above them all. It is space opera at its finest, and during its five year run it ran the gamut of emotions from slapstick comedy to gutwrenching tragedy. Not only that, but it accomplished the near-impossible feat for a network television show of telling a single story from beginning to middle to end. That, more than anything, is what makes me love it so much. J. Michael Straczynski set out to accomplish a task, and he succeeded with flying colors. With a slew of talented actors bringing his vision to life, not least among whom were Andreas Katsulas and Peter Jurasik, JMS gave us a story about what the human spirit is capable of, at its worst and at its best, and it taught us that there can always be new beginnings, even for people like us.
