I just heard the news that TNT is picking up the first season of B5.  I have
two thoughts on this:

1.  My respect for Ted Turner has gone up a little--I used to hate his
liberal hide and the totalitarianism-supportor that is his wife.  Now he
just disgusts me.

2. I have heard some say that this may be a bad sign.  They claim that this
shows that WB is not making enough money on B5 and they might cancel it
before the fourth and fifth seasons.  But, if the sydicated stations drop
it, TNT could pick it up and B5 could finish its last two seasons.

Any comments, flames, etc.?

Later
Mark

     To clarify some growing misunderstandings: TNT will begin showing B5
episodes only *after* the series has run its course, and at that time, it
will acquire the full run, not just one year.
