I have to watch Farscape entire, what I saw didn't bowl me over. What B5 explored remains pertinent, and even core, in modern SF

I remember a lot of diplomacy and mysticism. What's core?

the elder vs younger races arc, totalitarianism/bigotry at home vs building trust/tolerance between cultures

I can't say I see those as the themes of SF, particularly. It really grated on me how humans were special. Why?

in general, they weren't, the show went a long way to establish eg. parity w the Minbari, Centauri & other younger races

I did watch it. I just wanted more alien aliens I suppose. I enjoyed the Narn, especially Katsulas.

apropos, I thought of giving Dark Matter a go, despite the genericness it evokes. Do you know if it gets better down the line?

I'm enjoying Killjoys, which is fluff, but pleasant fluff.

oh, now I remember, I watched the 1st ep of Killjoys & stopped right there. Dark Matter has the same generic feel

Some things I really watch, and some things I watch while doing the dishes, or chopping onions.
