[QUOTE]Originally posted by Obi Juan: [QB] [QUOTE] I get really fed up with Trekkies going on about how B5 was so hard to follow because you had to watch them in order and if you didn't you couldn't follow the story, yet then go on to extol DS9's virtues because they watched the episodes in order and found following the story great fun.[/QUOTE] Actually, I was in the military and ended up missing all of DS9 season 4 and most of 5. I was pretty lost when I started watching again, and the plot seemed to have gotten pretty convoluted (Cardassians were enemies, then friends, then enemies, then friends...). I considered not investing the time in figuring out what exactly had happened. Luckily they had just started showing syndicated reruns of the show, so it didn't take me to long to catch up. You know what Lee, arcs are great if you start from the beginning and watch the whole thing, but they suck ass when you pick it up mid series (whether its DS9, B5 or whatever). I was using B5 as an example because even though I love arcs, it illustrates why networks have an aversion to them--they discourage new viewers. Sorry if I confused you... [/QB][/QUOTE]
