This is by far the best Sci-Fi show ever. To me it was always been far more believeable than Star Trek. It actually shows humans as a less advanced space faring race, something not often depicted. Their is much more realistic political, racial and spiritul structure to the story. So many great twists including things you wouldn't think matter, and come to find are very significant later on.

this is how to write and air a tv show. JMS knows how to write and direct a story. that he wrote a four season arc with a heart-wrenching but beautiful and appropriate is something he should be praised for. In many ways, it's a shame that the fifth season had to be written and tacked on. however, it neither took away from the series nor added anything to it. Sleeping in the Light will always be the best episode of anything i've ever seen on television. i've been a fan of B5 since the first movies and the pilot aired. it's perfect as is. and i thank JMS for giving us this amazing gift.

Awesome sci-fi, great writing, intertwined episodes and evolving characters. Many Star Trek people were involved in Babylon 5 because they thought it was great too! CGI is dated now but was great for its time. Get into the stories and you will understand why the show won many awards. Just as good as Star Wars and Star Trek!
