In celebration of the show’s thirtieth anniversary, Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment (say that three times fast) is releasing the series on Blu-ray this December. All 110 episodes have been remastered in HD, and the set also includes Babylon 5‘s pilot movie, The Gathering.

The set will be available December 5, 2023 at your favorite retailer and, in the U.S., will cost you $99.99 for 4,730 minutes of Babylon 5 goodness.

        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.

    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…

    Even though I already have them, it’s prudent to get the physical release too. The more money it makes the more likely WB are to do more.

        The DVDs? I’m pretty sure when they were released back early 00’s, each season was the top selling box set. Then eventually they released the full collections, and released several times etc.

        Do you mean failing in function or sales? The DVDs are quite old at this point.

    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!
