A couple of comments -
1. I was - and am - a fan of the original B5 show. The last two seasons weren't quite up to snuff since JMS had been informed that there would be no Season 5, so he tried to cram more of the story into Season 4 . . . after which, the network DID authorize Season 5. The required rewrites didn't help things.
I wonder if it will become a vehicle for promoting the current zeitgeist and narrative?
2. On the CW? Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.
The CW is The Gay Network, and they go out of their way to ruin what what should be simply entertaining shows (Batwoman, Supergirl, etc.) by putting heavy handed gay/lesbian stuff in. I do NOT want to see a "woke" version of B5.
3. JMS was supposed to be working on a prequel or sequel to one of my all time favorite movies,
Forbidden Planet. Sounds like this has been indefinitely postponed. Too bad - I know he personally liked FP, and there were scenes in B5 that were directly lifted from FP.
