As a huge B5 fan I'd definately say to watch it but, like others, I'd have to admit that Season 1 stinks.  If you can make it through the first season you'll be greatly rewarded.  Season 5 is also a bit of a let down but that's just because JMS tried to wrap up most of his story by the end of Season 4 (thinking they were going to be cancelled).  Fortunately they got renewed for the 5th Season but sadly there's not much story in that season as a result.

The Babylon Project?

If so, you're in for a treat. I loved it.


You might also want to check out the great set of B5 addons to Celestia.

I think you forgot Farscape :cool:


Agreed.  I'd rank Farscape above Firefly.  Farscape and B5 are both my favorite TV sci-fi's.  It's tough to say which I prefer as they have VERY different feels to them so it depends on my mood on any particular day.
