Awesome B5 episode!
I love Star Trek. But I don't think there will ever be a Sci-Fi series that comes close to B5. JmS put in a heck of a lot of work writing every single episode of the show for those many years. I think Babylon 5 will be the standard to which all Sci-Fi series will be compared for many years to come.
Another thing I really liked about B5 was its (to me) much more realistic view of the future of mankind. Instead of this incredibly happy, positive image of a mankind that doesn't use money anymore, you have the same rat race in the future but with cooler technology. Do you remember the episode where Sheridan and Ivanova were going to be kicked out of their large quarters if they didn't pay the difference in price?
