It was the dawn of the third age of mankind. Ten years after the Earth Minbari war. The Babylon project was dream giving form. It's goal to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call. Home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanders. Humans and aliens wrap in two million five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace. This is the story of last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5.

I would like a reboot cuz i heard great things about babylon5 but found it too dated to get into

The acting and the FX might be dated, but the series and the topics are not, the old series still has its value and it's worth a (re) watch.

If you can get past the dated aspects (style, FX), the writing is some of the best ever on Tv
