Babylon 5, 23 years after its original run on TV, is returning to the screen. Variety reports that The CW has ordered a rerun of the iconic sci-fi series. The project also has J. Michael Straczynski, the original creator.
This is good news as Straczynski wrote 92 episodes of Babylon 5. The production is currently in its infancy. However, we know that Straczynski wrote 92 of the 110 episodes that make up Babylon 5. It can be difficult to see the special qualities of Babylon 5, despite its outdated visuals. It was innovative in many ways. It was a serialized story that it told long before The Wire made the format popular.
