I'm not doing a B5 rewatch entirely because it's a great show and I want to see it again. In fact (and this will probably not come as a surprise), I am planning an EPIC VID. Since I don't own any of the DVDs, I'm using this rewatch as an opportunity plan what I want to use in the vid and thus to figure out what episodes I need to rip the material from.
This is where you come in, assuming you are both a B5 fan and willing to help me out. The song I'm using is "Apocalypse Lullaby," by The Wailin' Jennys, which you can listen to here. You can view the lyrics here, or you can download the Excel file where I've pasted in the lyrics/instrumental movements and storyboarded some extremely tentative footage. The lyrics include the phrase "One round heart, one round home," and I'm using the station as the embodiment of that idea--in all the turmoil of the series, it's a constant and a beacon of light. The more characters I can involve, the better.
I would love to hear suggestions for what could go where. If there's a particularly vivid scene you remember, tell me about it. (Whatever form you like: "this scene would be amazing set to this lyric," or "whatever you do, you must include that time where X does Y," or however else you want to phrase it.)

But now I definitely want to use the Kosh-angel scene (it's from the last episode of S2, I think). Maybe for "see the glowing grid" (although I think a shot of the station would be better, maybe) or one of the "enter world"s.
It is probably one of my favorite scenes, and I remember it pretty damned clearly even after all of these years - hence the suggestion, because *I* sure wouldn't mind seeing it in a vid. ;)
