Babylon 5 (1993) Retrospective/Review - Part 2
9,503Babylon 5 Retrospective/Review - Part 2: Babylon 5 created by J Michael Straczynski, with its pioneering production techniques and groundbreaking longform storytelling had carved out its own space in pop culture, stepping outside of the shadow of the dominant Star Trek. However it looked as though the show would come to an abrupt end after its fourth season with the closure of its home network PTEN. That is until a last minute renewal by TNT. The resulting era of the nascent franchise would be one of the most troublesome behind the scenes and one of the most controversial for fans.
