5.0 out of 5 stars Babylon 5. The standard for Video Science Fiction, February 3, 2011
This review is from: Babylon 5 Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
One well written and exciting Science Fiction Novel rendered in approximately 85 hours of video. Babylon 5 sets the top shelf standard for Video Science Fiction.
Surpassing, in many people's opinion even the Trek franchise this work is a must have for any serious science fiction video library. This is 100% 'hard' scifi with no fantasy element whatsoever.
