Yes, that's a bit of a blow. Will they release a complete complete collection later on?
I hope so. In any case it will be nice to get the full series in HD with less compression than streaming. Oh, and I hope the commentary from the DVDs makes it to the Blu-ray.
Were any of the films good besides In The Beginning? I hated 3rd Space and Call to Arms. I don't remember if I saw River of Souls.

I've also seen numerous reports of the DVDs failing.
But yeah, we need the films redone too.
This is incredible news. I’d heard rumors for years but I didn’t think they’d actually do it. Makes me wonder if my recent DS9 rewatch was premature…
Yeah, this is bought.
Wow! I was using Nvidia Deep Learning to try to upscale Babylon 5 into a barely acceptable 720p at 16:9. This is a dream come true!
