The production values weren't very good for the time the show aired. It was about the seasons long overarching plot, and the characters who grew over those seasons which were relatively unheard of concepts in TV SciFi at the time.

Replying to myself because I guess I care too much about this, but both DS9 and the Battlestar Galactica remakes were heavily inspired by what B5 did.

People say the Sopranos ushered in the 'golden age of TV' and I woudlnt deny it had larger mass appeal, but shows like B5 did it first.
