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!

The series is such an interesting piece Sci-fi history. Having the premise stolen by DS9, having to swap out one of the key characters after season one and pivot the story, the curse and early demise of many of the actors..

If you do a "where are they now?" on the cast many are dead :/

A TV show with adult actors, plus 30 years after it was filmed... Yeah.... they are not going to be around much longer.

Oh yeah but a lot of them died super early
