It is a nest of spoilers so I'd avoid it if that sort of thing spoils your viewing.

Seriously, I'm excited to watch it, mostly because I have no idea what's going to happen, and I like the idea of a show that knows where it was going even if I understand they squeezed their 4 and 5 season ideas into the 4th season, then got renewed for a 5th.

Which begs the question, should we bother with the 5th season?

Season 5 has some fine moments in it (sadly Penn And Teller aren't any of them), it really does drag though because most of the planned storylines where either used or changed due to unforeseen circumstances and play out in a less interesting fashion.

So I'd say watch the last season but don't expect too much.

I'm sorry, I misread you, I think you said that Penn and Teller are in Babylon 5. That's silly.

It was up there with Hale And Pace appearing in Doctor Who and the episode was written by Neil Gaiman (and would otherwise have been one of the better episodes).

I just finished the series last week. What a tearjerker finally. That had to be one of the best story arc series ever produced.

Season 5 used to be my least favorite, but now after re-watching the entire series, season 5 has some of the best moments in the shows entire run.

I could never get into the stand alone story projects, such as the TNT films  and lost tales video.  Yet, I did like the re-edit of the Pilot and parts of "In The Beginning".

An edit of Day Of The Dead where Rebo And Zooty are never seen would be a plus.

VFX legend and Emmy winner Ron Thornton, who worked with me on Captain Power, Babylon 5, Star Trek - The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, Star Trek New Voyages “World Enough and Time” and, most recently, Space Command is desperately ill and needs our help. Ron revolutionized television and brought CG effects to the medium. Babylon 5 would not exist without him and Battlestar Galactica could never have achieved the spectacular VFX it had without Ron’s blazing a trail. He’s now hospitalized in critical care, and a fund has been set up to aid in his medical expenses. Please help in any way you can to donate or spread the word – https://www.gofundme.com/2pbngrnc

I’ve heard so much about this show, but it wasn’t in syndication back in the days when I devoured reruns. It’s a shame it’s not stream anywhere or in reruns now.
