B5 Rewatch Reviews in Review

So we've now watched just about half of the regular broadcast episodes of "Babylon 5" in our household, and I've been doing reviews of each episode — 55 of them to date — it's time for some re-evalation and housecleaning.

My format for the reviews has matured over time in terms of how its laid out, what sites I link to, images and videos and animated GIFs I link to, and just the nature of the commentary.  One of these days, when I've plenty of time, I may go through and update the blog versions of the reviews to make them a bit smoother and more attractive.

That said, it occurred to me some weeks back that I may not have been as consistent as I would want on the review scores (X out of 5) for individual episodes. Both the basic rubric (what does 3 out of 5 mean?) and a comparison (is episode X really better than episode Y?) needed to be run through.

Kind of glad I did, since I think it came out a lot more cleanly, and gives me a baseline to compare for future eps.  Of course, now I have to go back and update the blog posts …

The scoring (what I originally did, and what I've changed it to) can be found, along with links to all the reviews to date, here: http://goo.gl/FW6PAq .  I'll be keeping that spreadsheet up as I go along.
