The rules of production were strict; scripts were written six episodes in advance, and changes could not be made once production had started.
With not all cast members being hired for every episode of a season, the five-year plot length caused some planning difficulties. If a critical scene involving an actor not hired for every episode had to be moved, that actor had to be paid for work on an extra episode.
That was one of the big risks going into a long-term storyline which I considered long in advance; Michael Straczynski, [26].
Straczynski purposely went light on elements of the five-year narrative during the first season as he felt the audience would not be ready for the full narrative at that time, but he still managed to drop in some scenes that would be critical to the future narrative.
This also made it challenging for the actors to understand their motivations without knowing where their characters were going; Straczynski said "I didn't want to tell them too much, because that risks having them play the result, rather than the process.
Unwilling to short-change fans of the show, Straczynski began preparing modifications to the fourth season that would allow him to conclude his overall arc should a fifth season not be greenlit, which ultimately became the direction the fourth season took.
Straczynski identified three primary narrative threads which would require resolution: the Shadow war, Earth's slide into a dictatorship, and a series of sub-threads which branched off from those.
Estimating they would still take around 27 episodes to resolve without having the season feel rushed, the solution came when the TNT network commissioned two Babylon 5 television films.
Several hours of material was thus able to be moved into the films, including a three-episode arc which would deal with the background to the Earth—Minbari War , and a sub-thread which would have set up the sequel series, Crusade.
Further standalone episodes and plot-threads were dropped from season four, which could be inserted into Crusade , or the fifth season, were it to be given the greenlight.
When word came that TNT had picked up Babylon 5 , this was moved to the end of season five and replaced with a newly filmed season four finale, " The Deconstruction of Falling Stars ".
Ann Bruice Aling was costume designer for the show, after production designer John Iacovelli suggested her for the position having previously worked with Bruice on a number of film and theatrical productions.
With the variety of costumes required she compared Babylon 5 to "eclectic theatre", with fewer rules about period, line, shape and textures having to be adhered to.
With an interest in costume history, she initially worked closely with Straczynski to get a sense of the historical perspective of the major alien races, "so I knew if they were a peaceful people or a warring people, cold climate etc.
As the main characters evolved, Bruice referred back to Straczynski and producer John Copeland who she viewed as "surprisingly more accessible to me as advisors than other producers and directors", so the costumes could reflect these changes.
Ambassador Londo Mollari 's purple coat became dark blue and more tailored while his waistcoats became less patterned and brightly colored as Bruice felt "Londo has evolved in my mind from a buffoonish character to one who has become more serious and darker.
Normally there were three changes of costume for the primary actors; one for on set, one for the stunt double and one on standby in case of "coffee spills".
For human civilians, garments were generally purchased off-the-rack and altered in various ways, such as removing lapels from jackets and shirts while rearranging closures , to suggest future fashions.
For some of the main female characters a more couture approach was taken, as in the suits worn by Talia Winters which Bruice described as being designed and fitted to within "an inch of their life".
Costumes for the destitute residents of downbelow would be distressed through a combination of bleaching, sanding, dipping in dye baths and having stage blood added.
Like many of the crew on the show, members of the costume department made onscreen cameos. During the season 4 episode " Atonement ", the tailors and costume supervisor appeared as the Minbari women fitting Zack Allan for his new uniform as the recently promoted head of security.
His complaints, and the subsequent stabbing of him with a needle by costume supervisor Kim Holly, was a light-hearted reference to the previous security uniforms, a design carried over from the pilot movie which were difficult to work with and wear due to the combination of leather and wool.
While the original pilot film featured some aliens which were puppets and animatronics , the decision was made early on in the show's production to portray most alien species as humanoid in appearance.
Barring isolated appearances, fully computer-generated aliens were discounted as an idea due to the "massive rendering power" required.
Long-term use of puppets and animatronics was also discounted, as Straczynski believed they would not be able to convey "real emotion" without an actor inside.
In anticipation of the emerging HDTV standard, rather than the usual format, the series was shot in , with the image cropped to for initial SDTV television transmissions.
Foundation Imaging provided the special effects for the pilot film for which it won an Emmy and the first three seasons of the show, led by Ron Thornton.
After co-executive producer Douglas Netter and producer John Copeland approached Straczynski with the idea of producing the effects in-house, Straczynski agreed to replace Foundation, for season 4 and 5, once a new team had been established by Netter Digital , and an equal level of quality was assured, [38] by using similar technology and a number of former Foundation employees.
Christopher Franke composed and scored the musical soundtrack for all 5 years of the show when Stewart Copeland , who worked on the original telefilm, was unable to return for the first season due to recording and touring commitments.
Initially concerned composing for an episodic television show could become "annoying because of the repetition", Franke found the evolving characters and story of Babylon 5 afforded him the opportunity to continually take new directions.
With his recording studio in the same building as his home located in the Hollywood Hills , Franke would attend creative meetings before scoring the on average 25 minutes of music for each episode.
Using Cubase software through an electronic keyboard , or for more complex pieces a light pen and graphics tablet , he would begin by developing the melodic content round which the ambient components and transitions were added.
Using playbacks with digital samples of the appropriate instruments, such as a group of violins, he would decide which tracks to produce electronically or record acoustically.
Scores for the acoustic tracks were emailed to his Berlin scoring stage, and would require from four musicians to the full orchestra, with a maximum of 24 present at any one time.
One of three conductors would also be required for any score that involved more than 6 musicians. Franke would direct recording sessions via six fiber optic digital telephone lines to transmit and receive video, music and the SMPTE timecode.
The final edit and mixing of the tracks would take place in his Los Angeles studio. A total of 24 episode and three television film soundtracks were released under Franke's record label, Sonic Images Records, between and These contain the musical scores in the same chronological order as they played in the corresponding episodes, or television films.
Three compilation albums were also produced, containing extensively re-orchestrated and remixed musical passages taken from throughout the series to create more elaborate suites.
As original content from another studio, it was somewhat anomalous in a stable of syndicated content from Warner Bros. The pilot film, The Gathering , premiered on February 22, , with strong viewing figures, achieving a 9.
Figures dipped in its second week, and while it posted a solid 5. In the United Kingdom, the show aired every week on Channel 4 without a break, with the result that the last four or five episodes of the early seasons screened in the UK before the US.
Babylon 5 successfully completed its five-year story arc on November 25, , after five seasons and aired episodes, when TNT aired the th epilogue episode " Sleeping in Light ," which had been filmed as the Season finale 4 when Babylon 5 was under threat of ending production at that point.
After a fifth season was assured, a new Season 4 finale was used so that " Sleeping in Light " could remain as the series finale. Throughout its run, Babylon 5 found ways to portray themes relevant to modern and historical social issues.
It marked several firsts in television science fiction, such as the exploration of the political and social landscapes of the first human colonies, their interactions with Earth, and the underlying tensions.
Michael Straczynski , [61]. The clash between order and chaos, and the people caught in between, plays an important role in Babylon 5.
The conflict between two unimaginably powerful older races, the Vorlons and the Shadows , is represented as a battle between competing ideologies, each seeking to turn the humans and the other younger races to their beliefs.
The Vorlons represent an authoritarian philosophy of unquestioning obedience. Vorlon characters frequently ask, "who are you? The climax of this conflict comes with the younger races' exposing of the Vorlons' and the Shadows' "true faces" [61] and the rejection of both philosophies, [63] heralding the dawn of a new age without their interference.
The notion that the war was about "killing your parents" [61] is echoed in the portrayal of the civil war between the human colonies and Earth.
Deliberately dealing in historical and political metaphor, with particular emphasis upon McCarthyism and the HUAC , [67] the Earth Alliance becomes increasingly authoritarian, eventually sliding into a dictatorship.
The show examines the impositions on civil liberties under the pretext of greater defense against outside threats which aid its rise, and the self-delusion of a populace which believes its moral superiority will never allow a dictatorship to come to power, until it is too late.
Michael Straczynski, [70]. The Babylon 5 universe portrays numerous armed conflicts on an interstellar scale, including the Dilgar war Narn - Centauri conflict, Minbari civil war , Drakh War , Interstellar Alliance-Centauri war , and the Great Burn.
Wars between separate alien civilizations are featured. The conflict between the Narn and the Centauri is followed from its beginnings as a minor territorial dispute amplified by historical animosity, through to its end, in which weapons of mass destruction are employed to subjugate and enslave a planet.
The war is an attempt to portray a more sobering kind of conflict than usually seen on science fiction television.
Informed by the events of the first Gulf War , the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Soviet invasion of Prague , the intent was to recreate these moments when "the world held its breath" and the emotional core of the conflict was the disbelief that the situation could have occurred at all, and the desperation to find a way to bring it to an end.
The Shadow War also features prominently in the show, wherein the Shadows work to instigate conflict between other races to promote technological and cultural advancement, opposed by the Vorlons who are attempting to impose their own authoritarian philosophy of obedience.
The gradual discovery of the scheme and the rebellion against it underpin the first three seasons, [75] but also as a wider metaphor for competing forces of order and chaos.
In that respect, Straczynski stated he presented Earth's descent into a dictatorship as its own "shadow war".
The struggle for independence between Mars and Earth culminates with a civil war between the human colonies led by the Babylon 5 station and the home planet.
Choosing Mars as both the spark for the civil war, and the staging ground for its dramatic conclusion, enabled the viewer to understand the conflict more fully than had it involved an anonymous colony orbiting a distant star.
The post-war landscape has its roots in the Reconstruction. The attempt to resolve the issues of the American Civil War after the conflict had ended, and this struggle for survival in a changed world was also informed by works such as Alas, Babylon , a novel dealing with the after-effects of a nuclear war on a small American town.
Events shown hundreds of years into the show's future tell of wars which will once again bring the human race to the edge of annihilation, demonstrating that humanity will not change, and the best that can be hoped for after it falls is that it climbs a little higher each time, until it can one day "take [its] place among the stars, teaching those who follow.
Michael Straczynski, [81]. Many of Earth's contemporary religions are shown to still exist, with the main human characters often having religious convictions.
Among those specifically identified are the Roman Catholic branch of Christianity including the Jesuits , Judaism , and the fictional Foundationism which developed after first contact with alien races.
References to both human and alien religion is often subtle and brief, but can also form the main theme of an episode. When religion is an integral part of an episode, various characters express differing view points.
In the episode " Soul Hunter ", where the concept of an immortal soul is touched upon, and whether after death it is destroyed, reincarnated, or simply does not exist.
The character arguing the latter, Doctor Stephen Franklin , often appears in the more spiritual storylines as his scientific rationality is used to create dramatic conflict.
Undercurrents of religions such as Buddhism have been viewed by some in various episode scripts, [90] and while identifying himself as an atheist , [81] Straczynski believes that passages of dialog can take on distinct meanings to viewers of differing faiths, and that the show ultimately expresses ideas which cross religious boundaries.
Substance abuse and its impact on human personalities also features in the Babylon 5 storyline. Garibaldi is a relapsing-remitting alcoholic, who practices complete abstinence throughout most of the series until the middle of season five , only recovering at the end of the season.
Zack Allan , his eventual replacement as chief of security, was given a second chance by Garibaldi after overcoming his own addiction to an unspecified drug.
Stephen Franklin develops an addiction to injectable stimulant drugs while trying to cope with the chronic stress and work overload in Medlab, and takes a leave of absence from his position to recover.
Executive Officer Susan Ivanova mentions that her father became an alcoholic after her mother's suicide. Captain Elizabeth Lochley tells Garibaldi that her father was an alcoholic, and that she is a recovering alcoholic herself.
Babylon 5 draws upon a number of cultural, historical, political and religious influences to inform and illustrate its characters and storylines.
Straczynski has stated that there was no intent to wholly represent any particular period of history or preceding work of fiction, but has acknowledged their influence on the series, insamuch as it uses similar well established storytelling structures, such as the Hero's journey.
While the series is replete with elements which some argue are intended to invoke other works of fiction, myth or legend, there are a number of specific literary references.
Several episodes take their titles from Shakespearean monologs, [95] [96] and at least one character quotes Shakespeare directly. There are a number of references to the legend of King Arthur , with ships named Excalibur appearing in the main series and the Crusade spin-off, and a character in " A Late Delivery from Avalon " claiming to possess the sword itself.
Straczynski links the incident which sparked the Earth-Minbari war, in which actions are misinterpreted during a tense situation, to a sequence in Le Morte d'Arthur , in which a standoff between two armies turns violent when innocent actions are misinterpreted as hostile.
The series also references contemporary and ancient history. The Centauri are in part modeled on the Roman empire.
In more recent historical references, in the episode " In the Shadow of Z'ha'dhum ," Sheridan ponders Winston Churchill 's Coventry dilemma , of whether or not to act on covertly gathered intelligence during a war.
Lives would be saved, but at the risk of revealing to the enemy that their intentions are known, which may be far more damaging in the long term.
Kennedy , being deliberately staged to mirror the scene aboard Air Force One when Lyndon Johnson was sworn in as President. Although Straczynski is a professed atheist , Babylon 5 refers to the Christian faith in a number of places.
The show employed Internet marketing to create a buzz among online readers far in advance of the airing of the pilot episode, [] with Straczynski participating in online communities on USENET in the rec.
Also during this time, Warner Bros. In September , they hired series fan Troy Rutter to take over the site and move it to its own domain name, and to oversee the Keyword B5 area on America Online.
In and , TV Guide ranked Babylon 5 13 and 16 on its list of the top cult shows ever. Straczynski indicated that Paramount Television was aware of his concept as early as , [] when he attempted to sell the show to the studio, and provided them with the series bible , pilot script, artwork, lengthy character background histories, and plot synopses for 22 "or so planned episodes taken from the overall course of the planned series".
Unlike previous Star Trek shows, Deep Space Nine was based on a space station, and had themes similar to those of Babylon 5 , which drew some to compare it with Babylon 5.
He argued the same when confronted by claims that the lack of legal action was proof that his allegation was unfounded. Generally viewed as having "launched the new era of television CGI visual effects", [] Babylon 5 received multiple awards during its initial run, including two consecutive Hugo Awards for best dramatic presentation , [] [] and continues to regularly feature prominently in various polls and listings highlighting top-rated science fiction series.
Babylon 5 has been praised for its depth and complexity against a backdrop of contemporary shows which largely lacked long-term consequences, with plots typically being resolved in the course of a single episode, occasionally two.
Straczynski has claimed that the multi-year story arc, now a feature of most mainstream televised drama, is the lasting legacy of the series.
Moore and Damon Lindelof used the 5-year narrative structure of Babylon 5 as blueprints for their respective shows, Battlestar Galactica and Lost.
While praised at the time, due to budgetary and mastering issues these sequences are considered to have aged poorly. A recurring theme among reviewers is that the series was more than the sum of its parts: while variously criticizing the writing, directing, acting and effects, particularly by comparison to current television productions, reviewers praised the consistency of plotting over the series' run, transcending the quality of its individual elements.
Many retrospectives, while criticizing virtually every individual aspect of the production, have praised the series as a whole for its narrative cohesion and contribution to serialized television.
DC began publishing Babylon 5 comics in , with stories initially written by Straczynski that closely tied in with events depicted in the show, with events in the comics eventually being referenced onscreen in the actual television series.
Excepting movie rights, which are retained by Straczynski, all production rights for the franchise are owned by Warner Bros. In November , DC began publishing monthly Babylon 5 comics.
A number of short stories and novels were also produced between and Additional books were published by the gaming companies Chameleon Eclectic and Mongoose Publishing , to support their desk-top strategy and role-playing games.
In addition to In the Beginning , Thirdspace , and The River of Souls , they released a re-edited special edition of the original tv film, The Gathering.
In , a fifth tv film was also produced, A Call to Arms , which acted as a pilot movie for the spin-off series Crusade , which TNT canceled after 13 episodes had been filmed.
Dell Publishing started publication of a series of Babylon 5 novels in , which were ostensibly considered canon within the TV series' continuity, nominally supervised by Straczynski, with later novels in the line being more directly based upon Straczynski's own notes and story outlines.
In , Del Rey obtained the publication license from Warner Bros. All of the Del Rey novels are considered completely canonical within the filmic Babylon 5 universe.
In , the Sci-Fi Channel purchased the rights to rerun the Babylon 5 series, and premiered a new telefilm, The Legend of the Rangers in , which failed to be picked up as a series.
In , the first in a planned anthology of straight-to-DVD short stories entitled The Lost Tales , was released by Warner Home Video , but no others were produced, due to funding issues.
Straczynski announced a Babylon 5 film at the San Diego Comic-Con , [] but stated in that it had been delayed while he completed other productions. Beginning with the original telefilm, The Gathering , these were PAL tapes, showing video in the same aspect ratio as the initial television broadcasts.
By the release of Season 2, tapes included closed captioning of dialogue and Dolby Surround sound. Columbia House began distributing NTSC tapes, via mail order in , followed by repackaged collector's editions and three-tape boxed sets in , by which time the original pilot telefilm had been replaced by the re-edited TNT special edition.
Additional movie and complete season boxed-sets were also released by Warner Bros. Image Entertainment released Babylon 5 laserdiscs between December and September Produced on double-sided inch Pioneer discs, each contained two episodes displayed in the broadcast aspect-ratio, with Dolby Surround audio and closed captioning for the dialogue.
Starting with two TNT telefilms, In the Beginning and the re-edited special edition of The Gathering , Seasons 1 and 5 were released simultaneously over a six-month period.
Seasons 2 and 4 followed, but with the decision to halt production due to a drop in sales, precipitated by rumors of a pending DVD release, only the first twelve episodes of Season 2 and the first six episodes of Season 4 were ultimately released.
The telefilms were later individually released in region 2 in April , though some markets received the original version of The Gathering in identical packaging.
DVD boxed sets of the individual seasons, each containing six discs, began being released in October Each included a printed booklet containing episode summaries, with each disc containing audio options for German, French, and English, plus subtitles in a wider range of languages, including Arabic and Dutch.
Video was digitally remastered from original broadcast masters and displayed in anamorphic widescreen with remastered and remixed Dolby Digital 5.
Disc 1 of each set contained an introduction to the season by Straczynski , while disc 6 included featurettes containing interviews with various production staff, as well as information on the fictional universe , and a gag reel.
Since its initial release, a number of repackaged DVD boxed sets have been produced for various regional markets. With slightly altered cover art , they included no additional content, but the discs were more securely stored in slimline cases, rather than the early "book" format, with hard plastic pages used during the original release of the first three seasons.
While the series was in pre-production, studios were looking at ways for their existing shows to make the transition from the then-standard aspect ratio to the widescreen formats that would accompany the next generation of televisions.
After visiting Warner Bros. Though the CG scenes, and those containing live action combined with digital elements, could have been created in a suitable widescreen format, a cost-saving decision was taken to produce them in the aspect ratio.
When those images were prepared for widescreen release, the top and bottom of the images were simply cropped, and the remaining image 'blown up' to match the dimensions of the live action footage, noticeably reducing the image quality.
For the purely live-action scenes, rather than using the film negatives, according to Copeland, "Warners had even forgotten that they had those.
They actually didn't go back and retransfer the shows. In particular, quality has been noted to drop significantly in composite shots.

Once I had the locale, I began to populate it with characters, and sketch out directions that might be interesting.

Once I had that picture in my head, once I knew what the major theme was, the rest fell into place. All at once, I saw the full five-year story in a flash, and I frantically began scribbling down notes.
First thing I did was to flip out the stand-alones, which traditionally have taken up the first 6 or so episodes of each season; between two years, that's 12 episodes, over half a season right there.
Then you would usually get a fair number of additional stand-alones scattered across the course of the season. So figure another 3—4 per season, say 8, that's 20 out of So now you're left with basically 24 episodes to fill out the main arc of the story.
Often we try to coordinate the sensibilities of the aliens. I try to work with Optic Nerve to ensure that the head meets the body in some sensible way.
We talk about similar qualities, textures and colors and the flow of the total being. Truthfully, often the look of the prosthetic comes somewhat earlier and from that I have an understanding of what direction to go.
Christopher Franke. Neither the Vorlons nor the Shadows saw themselves as conquerors or adversaries. Both believed they were doing what was right for us.
And like any possessive parent, they'll keep on believing that until the kid is strong enough to stand up and say, 'No, this is what I want.
What interests me, what I wanted to do with making this show, was in large measure to examine the issues and emotions and events that precede a war, precipitate a war, the effects of the war itself, the end of the war and the aftermath of the war.
The war is hardware; the people are at the center of the story. If you look at the long history of human society, religion — whether you describe that as organized, disorganized, or the various degrees of accepted superstition — has always been present.
And it will be present years from now To totally ignore that part of the human equation would be as false and wrong-headed as ignoring the fact that people get mad, or passionate, or strive for better lives.
