The characters also get a lot of flanderization as seasons go on. Sailor Moon only gets good and creative by the time the finales arrive. You probably remember it as good only because it was part of one's childhood, and in one's childhood everything seems good. The same could be said for many other animes present decades ago, like Pokemon or YuGiOh.

And the dubs just make it worse.

Yes, I do realize that. I was just suggesting because it was the best option I had anime-wise. I never really got into the show because honestly, I'm a space fantasy lesbian romance gunslinger type of person, I don't get into that. But it was the only anime I paid any real attention to *cough* cos of the rampant Yuri shipping *cough* so that's why I went with it.

On a completely unrelated note, the main reason I even bothered watching Sailor Moon was because ship Usagi/Seiya, Ami/Makoto, Haruka/Michiru, Mina/Rei, Setsuna/Kakyuu, Taiki/Yaten and Hotaru/Chibiusa.

Yes, the Dub version was awful. I have one of their series on tape (who uses that anymore?). Let's just say that the only reason I haven't burned it is because of the environmental hazard and out of respect for DiC's pathetic attempt to try their hand at dubbing the show. Going through roughly five actresses for one frickin character shows exactly how bad it went.

Now, if he'd been talking about non-anime shows I'd have thrown out Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars: Rebels, Castle, Firefly, ER, Monk, Bones, Hawaii 5-0, Blue Bloods and Rizzoli & Isles.
