B5: Rangers
I STRONGLY encourage everyone, both TWaF and Terran people, to watch the pilot movie "Babylon 5: Legend of the Rangers" when it comes out, Jan 19th on SciFi. I'm going to keep pestering you all, because whether or not a series spawns from it depends on it's ratings, and I will do all I can to improve them .
You can understand it without seeing B5 just fine. There's only a few throwaway references to the series (think Swedish Meatballs), so newcomers should have no problems.
Its Great though!
And its on again a 5pm EST tomorrow, Sunday 1/20, directly after the B5 pilot "The Gathering" at 3pm.

I will definitely be seeing it! I loved Babylon 5 and was so disappointed that they rushed to end it when they could easily have made another season or two, just with the plots they had going!
Re: B5 watcher
SciFi is still "on the fence" as to whether "Rangers" should become a series. The telemovie didn't do very well in ratings on the east, because it was competing with the highest-rated football game in years.
However, in the west, where football wasn't competing, it did EXCELLENT in the ratings.
There are ways to help convince SciFi to make a series. Head over to www.B5LR.com to learn more.
