Great for fellow first timers and veterans alike!

If you are just starting to listen to Jeff and Brent for the first time as they experience my favorite sci-fi series for the first time, then you're in for a treat. They dive into each episode, looking for all that is good, all that is bad, and all that is ugly while keeping in mind the time it was written in and the limitations B5 had to overcome. They don't understand the context of some things, and that's what makes this podcast so great! You get to experience it with them FOR THE FIRST TIME. Join them as they boldly go where they've never gone before [BUZZZZZZZ!].

Good reactions and insights

Jeff and Brent are some of the best hosts out there. Good reactions and insights make them must a follow. It's been a blast listening to them go on the ride of Babylon 5 and the 2nd time around should be just as fun

As a long-time fan of both B5 and Trek this has been fun.

I tried a different B5 episodic commentary but this is much more enjoyable. The interplay between the podcasters and the insights they pull out each time, I look forward to!

The best show reviewed by the best podcasters

What else can I say? with their unique perspective derived from many hours of Star Trek review these gentlemen now focus on one of the most underrated science fiction series in television history.

Amazing

As a kid i would record both Babylon 5 and DS9 to watch every Sunday morning. As a kid i loved Babylon 5 as an adult i love Star Trek (DS9 is still my favorite) however this podcast has rekindled my love for B5 as I enjoy the different prospects of first time watchers with the added in Star Trek references. I can't wait to hear more!!!

An interesting take on Babylon 5

A fantastic adventure as two veteran Star Trek podcasters dive deeply into Babylon 5 through the lens of Star Trek. it is fascinating to watch them dissect my favorite series through their eyes.

Thank you for the laughs and memories

I discovered this podcast during my vacation in July and have since binged the series. Thank you so much for bringing back all the memories of why I loved this series when it was originally on the air. I enjoy your recaps and discussions of each episode and look forward to your predictions about the next episode, which have been both eerily correct and amazingly bad. I show my love of Babylon 5 daily with my email address "entilza.bd@" (which I created in the 90s before I knew the correct spelling) and hearing you express your excitement and frustrations about this beloved series always leaves me with a smile and counting the days till the next episode.

Entertaining and insightful

Having been a B5 watcher since the Gathering first premiered 30+ years ago, I watched every B5 episode countless times. I discovered this podcast in June of 2023 and having listened their take on the Gathering I knew that I would be excited to listen to their journey to the War without End episodes which I finally got caught as the second episode premiered which was so fun and exciting to listen. Now that we are moving past that I cannot wait to see how Jeff and Brent's journey through the second half of Babylon 5 goes. It is just unfortunate that now I have to wait a week for each episode.
