The only problem to shooting a show in case a network decides not to pursue it is where does one get $18 million or so per season in order to continue filming? And if the ratings drop, how does one convince the stations to carry the show instead of higher rating series?
The B5 series will live or die on the ratings. Fortunately, the last seven new episodes have continued the trend of increasing ratings, and we just went from #20 to #18 in the overall ratings for syndication, which is extremely good.
