Yes, I was delighted to read the updated date on the article.

Sorry, I forgot to post the link. This link looks like it is an updated version of the older article. https://comicbook.com/tv-shows/news/babylon-5-reboot-confirmed-to-still-be-in-the-works/

No news yet, but not sign that they are turning away. From May 19, 2022

to bring it back to on topic, I saw a YouTube video last night about the whole delay thing. I gather Stargate, Babylon 5 and another series are all in a holding pattern. So no new information, just that other series are in the same boat.

Yes, I have heard something about them returning. I had wished Nyssa could return, too. But it will be great to see how the modern writing will deal with these headstrong characters. I didn’t know about the Brigadier in The Sarah Jane Adventures. I’ll have to see if Hulu or HBO Max has...

It would be a tricky balance (pleasing fans of the classic show while not pandering to them). I know when they rebooted Doctor Who they avoided bringing any of the older characters back to the show for some time. But I think in the end regretted not having Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart return...

:lol: I am never sure if I should post here if I don’t have any real news. I keep looking at the thread’s title to see if any posts are there, in the never-ending hope that we might hear some news on a B5 reboot moving forward at whatever channel the CW was engulfed by. I will keep looking...

Yes, despite what I'm "primed" to expect, I think the best part is not knowing. Anything could be made as an alternate history for B5. Literally. I just hope nothing goes wrong to stop it when it's THIS close. CW, economics, Covid, there is so much that could make this not happen.

Yes, that's it. Thanks, Jan! So it isn't necessarily a sleeping race, I remembered that incorrectly. But that's definitely where I got the news from. I know it's still not being filmed yet and may not even be solidly negotiated (yet), but I really am holding out hope for 2023.

I never even thought about that, but in Star Trek the ships didn't change in really big ways between the new iterations of the series. I doubt there would be any reason to do much more than make them look sleeker, somehow. I can't recall if it was here or somewhere else on the internet I...

That's a good question, I don't actually know what "development" means in television specifically. Perhaps they are working on who might want to be part of the production company, running approximations of costs and who might be free for filming in 2023?

You certainly have an impressive set of services. I didn’t know that about Netflix, but I should have guessed. They don’t seem to keep shows on very long (Lucifer and Stranger Things are doing well, I think I just assumed a lot of other shows were, too). Hulu is reviving Futurama, I think...

I assume Netflix is out of the possible futures homes for a B5 Reboot. I’d renew my subscription in a heartbeat. HBO Max would be great for me, but there would be a lot of people unable to watch it. That’s kind of the new trend in television entertainment today, I guess.

There certainly are a lot of remakes in the making these days. I really liked what I heard about the reboot’s premise, too. But mostly, I keep hoping because I’m just a fool for B5. It was a great series and a lot of it is spookily relevant to our current times. I’ll be keeping an eye on...

Yes, it’s just a shame, a remake could have been fun.

I wonder what the extra time might change someone's mind. Or does the sale mean the next round of approved projects will be chosen by a different group of people?

I’m listening to it right now. It is a good interview, thanks for posting it.

I listen to a few podcasts that advertise for VPNs. But it would be a shame and a waste if a new B5 wold be limited to the USA. B5 had a pretty impressive audience in the U.K. alone.

That is an excellent point. I don't know anything about who is writing for modern Trek series, but the original Trek definitely had writers that knew how to write science fiction. One of the most common complaints I've heard about TNG is that it was more a "family show" than a science fiction...

I hope it's not their last season. I just started watching the show. It really found its stride in season 2.
