The reason I'm asking is instead of just giving it a go is it isn't available to stream in my region. So I would have to acquire it in some other way if I give it a go.

I have never seen it before. I'm not a huge sci-fi fan or anything. I watched some Star Trek: TNG and liked it just fine. Do not like OG Star Trek at all.

I just landed on the B5 wikipedia page and the synopsis intrigued me.

Has it aged ok or does it feel like old? I don't care all that much if the effects or make up is a bit dated. It's more that the acting and storylines in 90's tv shows isn't always the greatest.
Is it heavy handed with trying to give the viewer moral lessons like some older shows tend to?
Also not looking for a action show nor do I care all that much about shocking story twists that newer media tends to lean on.

So TLDR I guess: Is the story and acting good?

I know it's hard to recommend things to people you don't know so any kind of input would be appreciated.

It's crazy that they made all the CGI with Amiga computers.
