Babylon 5 Reboot At The CW Confirmed By Creator Straczynski

Babylon 5 Reboot At The CW Confirmed By Creator Straczynski

The rumored Babylon 5 reboot at The CW has been confirmed by creator J. Michael Straczynski on social media. Straczynski took to Twitter to answer some questions about the reboot for fans. The most important part is, yes, this reboot is happening. However Straczynski gives a few other interesting details also. Check it out.

As you can see, the details are laid out for us here by Straczynski. Fans of the original Babylon 5 will be happy that the creator of the show is writing this. Will they be happy this is a complete reboot and not a continuation? I genuinely do not know the answer to that question. Given my leanings, and age, I should be a huge Babylon 5 fan. However I seem to remember there was a reason I could not watch it after Season 2 on the time slot it was shown in the U.K. and I therefore lost track of the plot. I just never got round to catching up years later when the show was available on re-runs.

Suppose that puts me in a unique position as someone who likes the idea of this, and doesn’t quite have the same love for the original as most. Though, my main worry here is the name on the paychecks, The CW. Historically, if it was made by The CW I haven’t enjoyed it. First two seasons of Arrow and The Flash were watchable, but after that things went in a bad direction for me.

Then again, with Straczynski seemingly in charge of the story, surely even The CW can’t mess this one up, right?

What do you think, any B5 fans reading this? What do you think as the Babylon 5 reboot at The CW has been confirmed by creator J. Michael Straczynski? Sound off below.
