I still hate the fact that they blew it up in the end because it was a "hazard" to space travel. A very sad ending to a classic series.

Kaboom! But it was silent because it was in space. Very very sad. Shortly thereafter Sheridan dies.

It was a very touching and depressing ending to a great series. At least we know that Earth survived the Pleague non-tech virus that the Drock (sp) unleased.

Crusader could have been a great show. I do so hate TNT for what they did.

OBTW Season 5 for Babylon 5 is coming out on April 13 for around $80.00 US.

Quote:

The final episode, "Sleeping in Light," was directed by J. Michael Straczynski and made an epilogue to the series. Set 20 years later, after all the sound and fury this quiet, elegiac tale is the apotheosis of the love story that proved the balance to the tragedy of the preceding darkness. A personal story resolved against a background of the epic, at once transcendent, deeply human, and profoundly optimistic, "Sleeping in Light" is as moving as any hour in the history of television drama and a thoroughly satisfying conclusion to one of the greatest series ever made. --Gary S. Dalkin

If I remember, TNT wanted to sex-up and dumb-down Crusade to appeal to a wider audience. History shows this typically fails. Lemme point to another sci fi series that did that - Enterprise.

And they are just barely making the pick up list for UPN who's twitchy as hell when it comes to low-Ratings.

The thing is, TV series are no longer produced to the quality they once were.

Networks would rather commit to a mini series than a 13-episode trial run at the same time they refuse to hire writers guild people in favor of reality TV shows that are produced on limited, half-season runs of 12-15 episodes.

I despise hollywood for that and thier long line of made-for-oscar films that spew of boredom.
