But, it was probably done on processors that were less than 100 MHz, so it's great.  Other Sci-Fi shows out at the time weren't willing to go 100% CGI, so you could consider these shows to be pioneers of that. |
100% Agree.
And I really like both shows today. More like the many other shows with more modern CGI-Effects because the characters are very authentic, especially in B5 but also in SPACE (I mostly liked the character of Colonel McQueen in SPACE, and the characters Alfred Bester, G´Kar and Londo Mollari in B5 - Unfortunately Talia Winters had leaved the show too early - I liked her role in the show...)
