television!

[jazzfish]

I have a vague desire to drown myself in television. Which of these, o lazyweb, would you recommend? (ETA: I've seen none of these except the BSG pilot)

• Babylon 5
  
• Farscape
  
• Battlestar Galactica
  
• Avatar: The Last Airbender
  
• Something else entirely

(No poll because I'm more interested in the Whys.)

Not that this will be happening anytime soon: the next four months or so are kinda busy. But once we get settled I may do something like 'i made my wordcount for the week so i get another episode of X.'

Farscape isn't one big story? I'd thought it at least had plot that moved forward across episodes.

From what I recall, there were arcs (both seasonal and for the series) but it wasn't all laid out in the creator's mind from the beginning. That said, poking at some episode review sites, they seem to indicate that the first couple of episodes (the ones I tried to rewatch) were pretty bad compared to the rest.
