I watched the extended first episode of Babylon 5 on sky 1 the other night and just wondered what everybody else thought of it.
I cannot really comment as I have not watched any of the other series' before.
Yet it seems ok, although I spent most of the time asking my partner about the old shows to understand what was going on.... he didnt like it.

Which Babylon 5 episode was it?

The only 'new' series I heard of was a spin-off called Crusade.
If you mean the original Babylon 5 first series, then I'm afraid it's a long way past 'new'

They have extended episodes now?

Omega · 3rd January 2006, 09:00 PM

Don't you mean the TV movies that were created?

kyektulu · 3rd January 2006, 09:16 PM

Oh dear...
sorry guys apparently it wasnt a new series....

My mistake.

Bah! I was getting all excited then.

Reminder to myself: I must keep an eye on the Lurkers Guide.

Are we talking about the original pilot movie, Kyektulu??

kyektulu · 4th January 2006, 10:03 PM

I think so brian, not entirly sure though.

Taken from The Internet Movie Database

The Gathering - the original feature length pilot.

Then the TV Movies:

In The Beginning
The River Of Souls
A Call To Arms
Thirdspace
The Legend Of The Raiders: To Live And Die In Starlight

Never heard of the last one though.

This could be what Kyektulu saw. I've watched this a couple of times and there's no doubt it was intended to be a pilot for a new series. Doesn't seem like anything came of it though - shame.

Aaah a light bulb just switched on in my head, I'm sure I heard a few years back they were going to make a spin-off with the Rangers, but went with the ill-fated Crusade spin-off instead.

I never watched any Crusade episodes though.

Edit: Oops just realised my typo in the list of B5 movies, the last one is the Rangers, not raiders.

I heard that a new movie called "Babylon 5 - Memory of the shadows was being made but I'm not sure, lets hope it's true
