I dunno...maybe it's just nostalgia talking, but the original series (along with DYRL and Flashback*) seem...well...
classier than any of the follow-ups. Not that any of them are bad, really...I like them all...but the original, for all its flaws (and they are numerous, especially for the outsourced animation episodes) seems to me to have more heart, energy, and truth to it.
*To me, all the '80s Macross stories kinda/sorta fit together...SDFM TV is the ice cream, DYRL is the hot fudge sauce, and FB2012 is the cherry on top. And all the short stories, novels, and audio dramas are the nuts and sprinkles.
