The Babylon 5 and Star Trek crossover that only exists to end fan disputes

In addition to Majel Barrett appearing on Babylon 5J. Michael Straczynski has sent a personal message to fans of his series and Star Trek, addressing the growing feud, which has primarily centered around Deep Space Nine. He said: “Because it’s not a zero-sum or multiple-choice game… you can watch and enjoy, Babylon 5 and Star Trek as well, for different reasons, because their approaches are very different.

And describing what was happening behind the scenes, and away from the fans, he says: “The irony is that there is no problem between those who make B5 and those who make ST. Jeri Taylor is a friend, Majel supports the show, when ST does an episode with good special effects, we call them, when we do a good one, they call us… it’s almost entirely a matter of perception.”
