I'm surprised you watched it at all. Well yes, without a question Londo and G'Kar (Londo had the hair like a 17th century Frenchman or something, big wide fan of hair) and G'kar (Lizard dude) gave the best value for money in terms of character experience. That show would not have been quite as good as it was without them. Did you know Andreas Katsulas, who played G'Kar and incidentally also played Commander Tamalok in Star Trek, passed away? Sad loss.

I only watched that show as a wide-eyed kid so I don't any of the history. Also makes me want to rewatch Deep Space Nine which I have the same relationship with. Was def my fav Star Trek series, even if it never quite made it to a Locutus of Borg level of awesomeness.

@ Ped: without quoting the whole thing, awesome post! Really well thought out and well written. You've reminded me of some more characters I love, which I'll come back to later.

Also, where have I heard of Peter Petrelli? I feel like I know the name ... oh wait. Heroes, right? Just came to me.

Batty, you need to watch B5 with an adult's eyes. It's one of the very best-written scif-fi ... **** that: one of the very best written dramas I have ever watched. Over a five-season, five-year arc an incredible story unfolds, and some superb character development takes place.

And yes, DS9 rules, but only really from season three onwards (you know what I mean). And if you think they never reached levels that challenge STNG, watch "In the Pale Moonlight" and then come back to me.
