Was B7 just ahead of its time? Or what?<

Absolutely!

Of the three other shows mentioned Farscape is the only one we get here. The little I saw of it didn't compell me to watch more. The plots seemed very boring and none of the guys does appeal to me.

B7 has the merit - in addition to the refreshing plots and great dialogue - to have so many good-looking guys in it. (Avon, Blake, Travis I ...) :-)
