Here here totaly agree, i think i am not sure but i think Jmichael is bringing it back as a series. Did you know that that J Michael had the idea in the mid 80's and it took all that time to write and bring it to the screen :) so maybe he is working on a new series now as we speak and will take his time to make sure he gets it right i think thats why it wa such a hit.

The only trouble is, they wouldn't be able to call that Babylon 5 because it didn't exist yet.

In all science-fiction, you'd be hard pressed to find an antagonist as cool, suave and frightening as Alfred Bester. The character was made for Walter Koenig and it is easily his best acting performance.

true :D

10:49 "Most space battles look like a TV Game..." Ironically, my first impression of Babylon 5 was that the CGI kind of reminded me of old video games; but what he's saying is true, it feels like a film sequence, or a cutscene, and less like the kind of bird's eye view in an RTS or something. Now that CGI is so cheap and ubiquitous, it often gets misused, but the scary thing is that the best uses of CGI is when you don't notice it.

Watching this in 2017, I feel sad at how many of the cast are no longer with us.

B5 was THE best sci if series ever. Loved watching this documentary. Thanks for posting it.

This is the best there ever was. It's absolutely epic and the arcs are still current, actually now more than ever. Mollaris' story was the most significant for me. Seeing his opportunities to be such a great architect of peace consumed by consequence and darkness was so sad. I wonder how many people of power are torn between the same forces today knowing that choosing the right path could lead to their demotion or death. Do you give up the influence knowing that you'll die before seeing the promised land so to speak?

At a time when most shows were using "stone knives and bearskins," Babylon 5 was pointing to a bold new future and its amazing to see how much progress the industry has made.

The amazing thing about Bester was that he was the villain you loved to hate. Such a full character and most of that was down to Walter Koenig. Whilst Joe wanted the other actors to follow the script, Walter was allowed the liberty to ad-lib and he showed what a great actor he was at the same time. The amazing thing is that originally Joe wanted Walter to play a part that would have been a single episode, but after Walter's heart attack and recovery, Joe wrote an even better part and Bester was the best Sci-Fi villain I've seen.

It's now 2020. About 3 yrs. ago, I found a 5 season 'Special Edition' set for $3. After i got it home, i found out why. ALTHOUGH it says made in America, 2 of the 5 Seasons have the same quality as late 50's, early 60's, Japanese Science Fiction and Karate movies were known for : you would see the lips move, then here the voices, or the other way around. I tried 3 different DVD players, but got the same results, so OBVIOUSLY, SOMEBODY shafted me. Yard sale lesson learned.

Optimal Supreme I don't care for your childish, condescending tone, but whatever you (incoherently) present here as facts is simply not true. 1. I also know people that worked on the show, one being Adam Lebowitz. 2. Amiga (A4000+VT) hardware was used for the pilot and the first season. Foundation Imaging switched to Pentium/Alpha-based machines when season 2 came around, later followed by SGI workstations. 3. Lightwave was used on Jurassic Park only for animatics. The actual CGI was done in Alias/SoftImage and rendered with RenderMan. 4. No Amiga hardware was used in the production of either Titanic or Avatar. 5. I've also met some of the people behind LW in the early 90s, Allen Hastings and Tim Jenison. 6. My first DEC Alpha workstation (running Windows NT) in 1995 rendered about 30 times faster than my fully upgraded A4000. DECs also reportedly outclassed the Screamer, at significantly lower costs. Let's take the rose-coloured glasses off and face facts. I loved my Amigas(all of them), but by late 1994 it was painfully obvious...their time was over. I'm speaking from two decades of professional background in broadcast and computer graphics, just to put things into perspective.

That would make a proper remaster a massive and expensive undertaking. Imagine how blocky and jagged the CGI would look upscaled to HD or 4K. Still. I am currently re-watching the series on Amazon Prime and I hardly notice most of the aged special effects. Babylon 5 is just that immersive.

Maybe hollywood should remake this as well, with more diversity. Gotta be a least 20% more diverse to win any awards.

Here's a recent documentary about it - kzread.info/dash/bejne/nWt5vKRpdrOTmco.html

Wasn't this the first tv series to use the new CGI ?
