Book excerpt: The year is 2258, ten years after the Earth-Minbari War. In an effort to prevent further bloodshed the Earth Alliance created the Babylon project. Positioned in a key sector of the galaxy, the Babylon 5 space station serves as a space-born port-of-call for diplomats, traders, hustlers, and travelers. Its aim: to exist as a natural place where humans and aliens can work out their differences peacefully. Yet in reality the station is a focus of tension, malice, and intrigue--with all the wondrous excesses of a galactic cultural melting-pot. In Creating BABYLON 5 author David Bassom takes an in-depth behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the seminal series. From plot development to the show's ground-breaking special effects methods, Bassom covers all aspects of Babylon 5's production. Interviews with all the main cast and key production crew combine with page after page of stunning photography and essential details about the Babylon 5 universe.

Book excerpt: Table of Contents and Index available FREE at B5books.com.SCRIPTS* Endgame* Rising Star* Sleeping in Light* The Deconstruction of Falling Stars* No Compromises* The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari* The Paragon of AnimalsBecause of a last-minute decision to continue telling the story of the making of BABYLON 5 in chronological order, and because "Sleeping in Light" was originally shot at the conclusion of season four, an executive decision was made (translation: we got a call from JMS) that it would be included in this volume.So the seven scripts in Volume 11 contain the replacement season four finale, "The Deconstruction of Falling Stars," the season five debut "No Compromises" AND the ultimate B5 episode, "Sleeping in Light," as well as "Endgame," which saw the birth of the Interstellar Alliance, "The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari", "Rising Star" and "The Paragon of Animals."In addition, and perhaps of greatest importance to those who have been waiting for the inside story on these events to be told in more detail than ever before, a 72-page, 23,000-word introduction from J. Michael Straczynski, which describes everything that happened behind the scenes during the last minute doubts about, the campaigning for, and the final confirmation of a fifth season. Day by day, hour by hour, this introduction takes you right into the center of the action, the maneuvering, and the frantic, last-minute explosions that rocked the B5 universe down to its galactic core.This volume's back cover features another of concept artist Peter Ledger's original Babylon 5 color illustrations - the Babylon 5 station itself.Retired Date: June 30, 2008Discover why Babylon 5 will never be available on Blu-ray at B5news.com.

Download or read book The Triumph of Babylon 5 written by Baz Greenland and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2024-01-12 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Babylon 5 revolutionized genre television. First aired in 1993, the space opera series is highly respected for everything it was trying to achieve on television at a time when Star Trek was king. Its use of story arcs and long-form storytelling in science fiction can be felt in everything from Battlestar Galactica to Lost and The Expanse. Much of its legacy has been about its struggle to survive. From the rivalry with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, to the collapse of the Prime Time Entertainment Network, the cancellation of spin-off series, and the failed big screen attempts--the behind-the-scenes details on Babylon 5 are as fascinating as anything we have on screen. This work explores the complex history of Babylon 5, the career of showrunner J. Michael Straczynski, and the behind-the-scenes drama to stay on the air, with many attempts to continue the franchise. Featuring interviews with cast members from the podcast A Dream Given Form, a lengthy two-part interview with Peter Jurasik (Londo) and a chat with Patricia Tallman (Lyta) and others, this book gives insights into what it was like to be part of Babylon 5, chronicling the show's highs and lows and examining the legacy it left behind in genre television.
