Yes I remember that one. I won't give it 5 stars but for a while it was ok. Sort of like Sliders, it started with a good thing but really became bogged down just before it got cancelled.

It didn't get cancelled- it had a 5 year story line and ended after 5 years. It was Michael Straczynski' (sp??) storyline plan. It had so many plot lines going that there was always something interesting happening.

They bring in a well known, for guest appearances when the ratings are getting low for a show, hence ST Walter Koenig( Chekov) was a special guest star for Babylon 5.
I am glad they did get to finish the story. When a series that you get interested in does not have closure, It hurts.

My GEEK son hooked me up with a copy of "Mr Spock's Music From Space". Any Trek fans with that one?

I'm not the star trek/star wars type, but I certainly qualify as a geek and nerd. A bit of evidence....
- Spock was my fav Star Trek character
- my childhood hero was ...The Lone Ranger
- I read so much as a child that it drove my mom and grandmother crazy
- at 10 I wanted a globe for Christmas, which I still have today
- my dad was a computer engineer, back in the 60s when it was a "new" profession
- I tutored calculus in college
- all of my roosters have names from mythology...Eros, Notus, Zephyrus, Llyr, etc
- Dh calls The Big Band Theory..."your show"
- I'm analytical, when faced with conflict, I become even more and more analytical
- Besides farming, my other profession is web development. My preferred programming langauge is Cold Fusion
- When faced with computer trouble family members call....me
- at the top of my wish list is....a wind turbine
- all local store clerks know me as that-woman-who-buys-only-cleaning-products-and-occassional-dairy
- I collect things - antique dinnerware, mason jars, cobalt glass items, antique furniture, hard cover books, cookbooks
- I love farm smells...even the pigs. My fav phrase around here is "smells like money to me!"
