Correction, B5 started with Warner Brothers, and was sold into sindication for 5 years. Then it was sold to TNT who produced the show for one more year. In that time they produced three movies on the series.
Crusader was TNT show, but TNT being TNT, shafted the show by not giving it a dedicated time slot. They would bump it without notice, show it at funcky hours, and then *****ed about how poorly the show was doing. In other words they set it up to fail so they could collect on the insurance money. (They do insure new shows to make a return.)
TNT is by far one of the worst networks on cable. They may produce nice movies, but they SUCK at series. And the movies they show are often horribly edited. I gave up trying to watch TNT years ago. They did such a butcher job on Payback that it was a joke.
Sci-Fi produced the movie, and talked about doing the series, Rangers. But we all know how they are, they are all talk, little follow through.
Basically they just don't have the money. It was finacial decision that tanked Farscape afterall.
