Review of Babylon 5: The Gathering (1993) by Ryan L — 26 Apr 2008
Meh. When this first aired, it bored the hell out of me and completely turned me off from the series from the start. Lousy acting (Tamilyn Tomita & Patricia Tallman, especially), bad pacing and clunky dialogue being the worst offenders.
It wasn't until I rewatched it much later that I realized how many seeds were planted for the various story arcs in the series in that pilot. I could appreciate it a bit more. Plus, the re-edit helped with the pacing issues a bit.
If you're watching this for the first time, just keep in mind that the series is much, much better.
