Since I have never personally had cable TV, when a show goes on cable it might as well not exist for me. The miracle of DVD's of course changes all that in the long run.
Babylon 5 was one of my favorite shows when it was on broadcast TV, and now that I've once again viewed the first four seasons, I have to say that it is my favorite still, even ahead of Buffy. The kicker, though, is that I haven't seen the end yet, I'm only now seeing the 5th season. Back years ago when it ran for the first time there was discussion about it and I'd heard that it didn't hold up. Now I'll decide for myself.
