Damn, yes, good point. He was such an utterly self-righteous ba$$$$d at times "I'm a people person, how can anyone not like me" he was almost like a modern Torquemada.

Best B5 Good Guy - G'Kar by a long mile. Sure, he didn`t start off as the nicest of characters, but his gradual evolution into an incredibly noble feature made his eventual siding with the forces of light that much better.
Another good point. All the Trekkies who were claiming that B5 was just a rip-off were saying things like "Oh the Narn are a copy of the Klingons, the Centauri are the comic relief like the Ferengi, the Earth Alliance is like the Federation" etc etc, boy were *THEY* ever *WRONG*...!!
