However, I'm not really sure the show can go now...It had a 5 year arc, anything now feels taped on the end to me..
Crusade, To Live And Die In Starlight, they've got a Telepath War to depict (although the novels already did that), a second pulverising of Centauri Prime to explain (novels again), whatever happened to Lennier? Lyta? Is Marcus still on ice?

Of course, this is all academic since two of the principal actors and the most beloved recurring character are dead.

There's room in the B5 universe for more stories, though.

Season 5 felt tacked on, yes, but you can blame that on the uncertainties surrounding renewal. Watching the episodes in syndication, I felt that the show came to an aprupt halt and then lurched onwards as far as storyline goes.
