I can't comment in specifics until WB issues its formal press
announcement on this.

Thanks should probably be conveyed to Brad Siegel, president of
TNT, who fought hard to get the show, initially beating the Sci-Fi
Channel out in a bidding war for the reruns, and who believes very
strongly in what we're doing for the future.

Thanks...and cable residuals are only a fraction of regular,
broadcast residuals.

Yes, TNT is definitely a better home. For one thing, B5 would
get lost on the SciFi channel among all the other shows; here, TNT will
treat it as something special.
