Umm, B5 was never cancelled. PTEN, a sort of ad-hoc "network" created to distribute a series of WB shows to independent TV stations, dissolved and left B5 in the lurch for several months, hence the season 4 "ending." There WAS a season 5, however; for the 5th season the show was picked up by cable channel TNT, which also rebroadcast the first 4 seasons in daily strip format and showed the 13 episodes of the aborted sequel series "Crusade." Since then both shows have turned up on the SCI FI channel.
