Babylon 5 is a five-mile long space station located in neutral space. Built by the Earth Alliance in the 2250s, its goal is to maintain peace among the various alien races by providing a sanctuary where grievances and negotiations can be worked out among duly appointed ambassadors. A council made up of representatives from the five major space-faring civilizations - the Earth Alliance, Minbari Federation, Centauri Republic, Narn Regime, and Vorlon Empire - work with the League of Non-Aligned Worlds to keep interstellar relations under control. Aside from its diplomatic function, Babylon 5 also serves as a military post for Earth and a port of call for travelers, traders, businessmen, criminals, and Rangers.

Solid 90s sci fi television with intriguing plots and great characters.
A show ahead of its time and held back from being a masterpiece by that.
Brought long form story telling to North American TV. Story holds up too. Great sci-fi series.
An amazing, epic tale told well. Shame the characters were flat and the dialogue abysmal.
Despite outdated CGI still one of the best science-fiction series / space operas you can find.
One of those amazing narrative TV shows that is up there in quality with Breaking Bad and Twin Peaks.
Special effects are really dated and the last season was trash, but this show was a trailblazer for serialized storytelling in sci-fi TV.
A great sci-fi series with a surprisingly modern plot.
6/10
The bottom of the sci-fi barrel
