Not sure how I feel about that. I mean it was way ahead of it's time to be sure. And any many ways we are clearly living in a world that is way to similar to it. But can you really do justice to a series that was that ahead of it's time? I just don't know if you can.

B5 was one of those series I really liked when it aired  I recently rewatched it and I'm not sure if it's aged as well as say some of the old Star Trek series. Don't get me wrong, it is still way superior to some of the TV/Streaming shows today. I guess like most reboots, I would worry how well they get the feel/spirit of the original show while still doing their own thing. 

I guess with both those reboots,we will just have to wait and see what happens. Hopefully they will not be bad.
