Although an older series it is surprisingly captivating  and draws you in. Actors are refreshingly normal looking which makes it relatable.

I am not going to claim that the Babylon 5 series is perfect but I enjoyed it when it was originally broadcast and I enjoy it now. Even years after it was created; it really doesn't seem "dated" at all (from a technology standpoint) and the series offers a view of our future that is different from most other SciFi stories which I find refreshing.

I got hooked on this series and although it took a while to get into it I did enjoy the series.

This series was captivating and I would love to read what they accomplished there or to find out what happened back in Kilton and to her sons and to her friend.  The books were written in a poetic form and the sentences were not as we say or write although it was in English.  It is written from  a woman 's view so I did think it would appeal .ore to women.  It has historic interest and is back about 850 I believe.  It was when Danes were raiding coasts for plunder and showed how some intermixing of people occurred as areas were conquered.  So much could happen to any of the first locations so it is hard to think this is the last as I yearn for more.  You will enjoy it more if you read the first two books as she began at 15 and 10 years had passed.  It was very interesting reading.

I don't know why I didn't watch this show when it was running weekly, but i really love it now.  I enjoy seeing the dated technology of an old series.  The acting, dialogue and sets are wonderful

The second book of the series was captivating from the very beginning.

While I'm not quite sure that it lived up to the hype that followed it, it certainly earned it. The story presented in this series is strong in how different it is. It's a slow moving, quiet, character drive period drama. Once you move past the differences and look at the series for what it is, you're still left with something above average.

  The characters and story are strong in their own ways. While the pacing and humor of the series will try the patience of everyone at some point, the romance and characters will keep you coming back. I can understand someone loving this series but I can also someone saying that they hated it. There is a middle ground though and even though I never found myself particularly attached to this series I was sad to see the first season end. I may not be counting down the days until I see the second season but I am at least left with wanting more.

I cannot believe how intriguing this series is, even after all these years! I even have my 24 year old daughter watching the episodes with me. She's hooked as well. Collection 5 is all about Laura Collins (spooky!).

It's a captivating show that draws the audience in quite easily.  One reason is the complexity of the storyline and the other is the development of the characters.

I wish they would get the rest of them.

Since the first volume left me on a cliff hangar I enjoyed reading this. While there are differences between the books and TV show ( As per usual now a days) the series is still amazing and captivating.

As with the earlier books in this series,  this one is often riveting and keeps one grasping the tablet with little regard for passing time.

When I started reading this series I thought it might be too dark for my taste but......I am totally hooked.  The characters are unique but believable and the story line always intrigues me.  A well woven tale.

The series was dark at the beginning but the end of the series was beautiful. The contrast was new to this series. The characters are evolving into their own, which is magical to watch. Another tereasure!

There is something odd about this series. There is nothing particularly amazing, nor unique, about it but I find myself very much glued to it and wanting more. When there are nothing but grim, dark and gritty on the shelfs a story as simple and rather bright as this one is such welcome change from the constant brooding. Simple and rather human stories like these sometimes are more impactful than something grand and complex. I recommend this series to anyone and if there was a Spanish publication I'd ask my family to read it, too.

I did not know this was such an outstanding series when it first came out I did not watch it, but I since I started watching I have been binge watching to get up to date.  It is outstanding so far almost done with Series 1.  I have been so engrossed in the show that I have jumped and caught my breath a couple of times when creature dashed across the screen and tackled someone or just a flash of something happens and it is exciting.  This series is not bloody, or terrible scary, but is mysterious and suspenseful.
