   That's a lie, as witness the fact that it was canceled before the first   
   episode aired. And a dirty business it was. When the TNT executives in   
   Atlanta discovered that "Babylon 5" itself, though it got good ratings,   
   wasn't being watched by the mutant hillbillies they were trying to   
   build as an audience at the time, they intentionally made JMS's life   
   hell with unreasonable requests for changes until production shut down.
