I mean, some of us really enjoyed MacGyver!
One of the comments on his post protests that he's painting with too broad a brush by including BSG and B5. I never watched B5, and only watched BSG years after it aired, but I rather enjoyed BSG, the ending notwithstanding. Sure, the whole thing was an allegory for the post 9/11 war on terror, but it was well done.
- grogenaut 5y agobsg was amazing at the time but i worry it is very much of a time. at a time when suicide bombers were constantly in the news it made up a situation where viewers would think of "terrorists" as "heroes". reframing situations is a amazing part of scifi.
