Linking in from brown sector: Geeky ramblings are back, this time involving a show that’s making a minor – and well-deserved – comeback thanks to a much overdue facelift. And where this show is concerned, I was there, at the dawn of the nerd age of fankind… chronicling the show for myself with stuff that the studio sent out to the TV stations giving the series its original broadcast run. Does Babylon 5 still have things to say? Oh yes. Yes it does. Perhaps now more than ever. (1:44:32)
