DS9 I watched. What’s on the left?

Babylon 5, a lower budget but still AMAZING sci-fi show! You should check it out, season one is kinda good but after that it's really good, especially season four (though season five is a bit slow in parts)

It's one of my favorite sci-fi shows of all time!

I would argue that despite the great DS9 episodes and stories, B5 had better stories overall. That being said most of DS9's CGI aged pretty well. B5's CGI...not so much. Not even the remastered version.

I agree. I loved both, but I think B5 hit harder and is more relevant.

The effects were what they were. B5 had like half of DS9's budget. DS9 still used mostly practical effects and models until season 6 which hold up better too, especially vs. early TV CGI.
