The real problem was the telepaths were consuming all of Babylon 5's hair conditioner

Yeah, welcome to the 90s. The Entire Star Trek TOS/TNG/DS9 runs would have taken up a small room by themselves.

I always love telling the story of how my mom spent ages getting the Columbia House Star Trek video tapes in the mail and then the day we got the final episode of next gen we saw the first commercial for the DVD box sets on TV

Hahah what the gently caress this owns

e: I mean technically the official Lego stuff that's based largely off of concept art is great but it sucks that it's all so US focused

There is a canon illustration of the Babylon station available. It's pretty close to the design for Babylon 3 in that series of images, although it's not easy to pick out all the details because it's a three quarter profile from the front and against a starfield.

...may I see it

One picture of the Babylon Station, as requested. Apologies for the quality, it was photographed from a book.



This image also predates ITB, so while it was canon at the time the show takes precedence. However, B1 is canonically meant to have collapsed during construction of the outer rotating sections - at the time it was blamed on substandard materials; people didn't question the incident, or B2's fusion reactor explosion, until B3 was destroyed by more obvious bombing - so it could be that this is "concept art" of the finished product while the photo from ITB is only of the central superstructure.

Thanks for posting and satisfying curiosity I've had about this since I was a kid

I really liked Star Trek's secular humanist future because it was what it was without actually calling religious people stupid, I think it sucks that they walk that back every chance they get because it just makes whatever they produce even more generic.

Meanwhile everybody laughs when they have the Mormons step on a rake in every space opera

I think my main failing is that when people ask "why would a conservative like this show," I don't realize it's a rhetorical question and no one is actually interested in hearing an answer.

Poor persecuted conservatives, nobody even *wants* to understand you!

Babylon 5 rewatch: Lochley's hair is reaching centauri proportions:


The '90s were a glorious time, although I don't think B5 got as far into the shoulder pads thing as trek did
