Executive Director / Creator: J. Michael Strazinski (Twilight Zone, Captain Power, animated Ghostbusters) On the internet, he is often abreviated as JMS or jms.

B5 is very different from Star Trek in many ways. First, Babylon 5 is a show that has a definite start and end, and definite story line that connects episodes together (called a "story arc" by the creator of B5, can also be called an epic), where ST has a patchwork story, and the closest thing to a comprehensive story arc is the Dominion / Founder plotline.
