I don't quite recall how B5 first came to me - it would have been mid 1990's, as a young teenager, as I was watching Season 3-4 period around 96/97. I think I got occasional episodes of the first season but they didn't strike me as amazing, then somewhere along the line I caught a couple in a row.
I do remember seeing the last couple of episodes of Season 1 and that I was hopelessly lost from then. Around 1994/95, I was in a gaming club and started playing the CCG as well and loved it. In 1996, at 16, I found a university gaming club, and my Sunday pattern for two years became playing B5 CCG for about 11 hours, then walking home to get in about 0100 Monday morning, sit down with a warmed up dinner and watch the next episode. At Uni, around 98/99, I found the WarnerBros forums and pottered around there under the username Mee.
I wouldn't say I was a huge fan by normal definitions - seems to me to be in a fan community you have to know the actor name for the third guy on the left - however I love the show and the characters.
