Hi, I'm new to these boards and could use a tiny bit of help. I've done some searching around the site and the forums, but there are still some things I'm missing.
Let me give you my brief story first. Unfortunately, my father passed away this past year. He was a huge B5 fan, and I remember watching a handful of episodes with him when I was younger. So, I figured I'd go ahead and watch it all the way through.
Me and my girlfriend have now watched all the way through from the very first episode to the very last. Somehow the episodes I saw when I was a kid managed to be all the ones that gave away the endings (end of the shadow war, end of the civil war, etc), yet I was still completely captivated. My girlfriend, who normally doesn't like these kind of shows, was just as hooked as I was. All in all we watched all 100+ episodes in a very short time period, we were addicted. I can't think of any show that has ever even compared.
Anyhow, now that we've gone through all those I'm itching for more. I've learned the movies have come out in a box set, so I'll pick that up. I also plan on hanging around here and keeping up with things, though from reading through there are a few things that have confused me (everything here seems to be written in abbreviations ).
-I understand there was a spinoff about the rangers that didn't even last a full season. However, it seems people are referring to a "Rangers" series, and a "Crusades" series as two seperate things. Are they, or are people talking about the same thing? Also, is there any way I could find these to watch them?
-In reading the article about Richard Biggs (sad to hear, I've been through what his family is going through and I feel for them), there's a mention of a "new B5 project." I assume this is the B5:TMoS that I keep seeing referred to. I did a search on it and came up with pages and pages of people referring to it, but couldn't find an explanation of what it was. I've put together some of the pieces and it sounds like it's some sort of new B5 movie, but I don't know much more than that. Sorry if this has already been answered a few times, but I couldn't find it. Thanks for any help, be seeing ya.
