Babylon 5 Video Reference

Warner Home Video released the Babylon 5 videotapes in a fairly haphazard manner in the United States. They released Season One and Season Five first. They began releasing Season Two and Season Four very slowly. Unfortunately, they never completed these seasons, and Season Three tapes appear to be a distant dream.

The numbering system used on the videos is not consistent. Also, some online and mail order retailers list the videos by volume number, and others list them by title. Warner Home Video has also released several boxed sets, adding to the confusion. It is seldom clear to fans which tapes they already own and which ones are available for sale.

I have compiled this list of all episodes currently available from Warner Home Video in the United States. Each pair of episode titles is grouped with the proper volume number. Finally, Each boxed set is shown along with the tapes they include.

If you live in the United Kingdom, you can feel pity for the Americans. Every episode and movie is available in the UK, and they can also be purchased in full-season boxed sets.
