Personally, I'm interested in the Arthurian legend, and I think that, musically, this piece reaches the innermost core of the times past. What a great episode it was, too!

Guys, I feel such gratitude towards anyone who has watched the Babylon 5 soundtrack videos I have uploaded so far... Please, PLEASE try to track down and purchase C. Franke's incredible B5 soundtrack CDs, you'll thank yourself afterwards. He deserves all the credit for his creative work and the income from them. What an amazing talent. Without him, Babylon 5 wouldn't be the same. You KNOW I'm right.

Bring this show back... bring it back now!

@RaPositivist Nowadays, years after the show has ended, I feel like some things are better left untouched... The 5th season might have been somewhat painful to watch after the *CRASH BOOM BANG* storyline had came to an end... and I still do miss Ms. Ivanova...

@telanian Oh wow, the CGI is tear-worthy at today's levels, but it's the story that will live on forever! I still think that B5 is the best TV series ever, even ~13 years after the airing of the last episode in my country! What wonderful writing!!

I agree that Babylon 5 should make a comeback, however I don't agree that it should be a reboot. A spin-off, a prequel or sequel series would be more ideal, I reckon. I can't imagine any other actor playing Londo or Marcus, let alone G'kar or Dr. Franklin. As long as the series still had great actors and a great plot, I'd watch it.

@telanian You are also correct that WE know the story, but there are so many people today that never encountered 'Babylon 5' before, and it would be a great way of getting over the '90's goggle' leap that we would have to take for the original show.

Also, just because Andreas Katsulas was perfect for G'kar doesn't mean that there wouldn't be other entertaining interpretations of the characters. I would enjoy seeing this again and reinterpreted.

[telanian]

@RaPositivist Make a reboot? Why? What on earth would that give us other than improved CGI? What made the original B5 great wasn't the CGI but the characters and the story. Now we know the story! And as for the characters, no-one but Andreas Katsulas (to give just one example) could play G'Kar. Any other actor attempting it, no matter how skilled, would be a poor imitation.

For these reasons, any reboot would be a dismal failure. Accept that, enjoy what we have, and move on.

@BZUCO1 Unfortunately you're talking to a guy that enjoyed the 2009 reboot of Star Trek... We'll still always have the originals, and if they did make a new version of the series I'm pretty sure the originals will still be my favorite.
