    EDIT: Babylon 5 update

    The problem I'm increasingly coming up against with this show, mid way through season 4, is that it is the least compelling vision of the future I can possibly imagine. That is to say, not one single technological discovery of any kind (aside from space flight) seems to have occurred in the 310 years since the year 1950, which we are culturally and scientifically trapped within.

    A novel set in today's 2012 would demonstrate a higher ambient technology level than B5 and humanity's cultural adaptation towards it.

    I also don't like Delenn. She sounds like she's constantly about to burst into tears.

    Oddly, for all the telling of how the show took a while to get started, I think I preferred the earlier episodes because the premise - a United Nations in Space - genuinely intrigued me and I liked the crisis-of-the-week format. The more they focus on the Orwellian regime on Earth the less I buy it.
