I've decided to do my first Babylon 5 rewatch!

Lets have a binge thread to talk about B5!

I would love to find a 4k remaster of the series, there are some great demo videos on youtube, but on the streaming sites I can only find 720p. If you have any trouble choosing which streaming service to use just search for fmhy and they will have a curated list of options.

TV shows were wild back then, 22 episodes per season, 45 minutes each; 1000 minutes per season!

Thoughts and Comments

This feels super low budget, only a few actors in any scene, all cgi, no real sets.

The first story is introducing god and the devil, but its a weird fit since we have the vorlon and shadows in those relative positions, but this is going full god and devil in addition to vorlons and shadows. Felt forced

The second tale about the young prince, was nice, hopeful. Good to see sheradon returning to the station.
