Just watched #Babylon5: The Road Home for the first time as I have been watching the entire series again.

While I was not a fan for the animation style I really did enjoy it.

It was refreshing to watch a B5 movie for the first time in so long. I sure wish we could have more. Sure hope Straczynski can bring it back.

I have been watching B5 in the Historical Database viewing order. It is a really good and interesting order to watch it in.

Viewing Order

This page outlines the different viewing orders suggested over the years and compares them in detail. Fortunately Babylon 5's original broadcast order doesn't significantly disrupt the viewing experience, so viewers looking for a hassle-free option can safely watch the show's five seasons in the original broadcast order, DVD order, or HBO Max/Tubi order without major issues and leave the ardent fans to sweat the details. Also the TV movies and spin-offs (apart from the pilot movie The Gathering)

@WiredForFlight I really need to do a re-watch of that - it's been far too long...

@mancavgeek It really has not lost anything. sure some of the CGI is dated but the story holds fast. Few different ways to watch it to and it adds a bit of fun to the process.

@WiredForFlight Sounds like a fun idea! I may have to try that on my next watch.

@kifty it’s definitely more interesting that the original release order since you mix in the movies at the appropriate times.
