B5 goodness

I was a huge fan of the Babylon 5 series on TV all those years ago. Mostly because for the five seasons it aired, all but two episodes were written by the same guy - the creater of the series.

The storylines and depth of the characters are brilliantly done. And it's one of these series where if you start watching in the fifth season, you miss a lot of the back story. And Walter Koening was one of the best special guest spots ever.

So I'm thrilled the series creator is returning to the original stories. It has been rumored for a long time, and it is finally getting started. I'll have to look for them on release next year.

In the meanwhile, I'll have to start saving up to buy the seasons on DVD.
