Agreed. Babylon 5 never receives the recognition it deserves. Engaging storylines, full character development and epic space battle effects. Take the best stories of Next Generation and multiply those by at least 4 seasons and you have Babylon 5.

I preferred Babylon 5 to both Star Trek and Star Wars. Mainly because of the lack of technojargen, lack of a character reset button at the end of every episode and the fact it was a long lasting political story that didn't have to set in a sci-fi environment.
