I was watching Supernatural the other night and I hear the good news that Jared Padalecki is going to star in a remake of the old TV series “Walker, Texas Ranger.”  Congratulations Jared!

That made my wonder what Jensen Ackles, Misha Collins, will do after the series ends in a couple of weeks. 

So I’m thinking of Jensen in an update / remake of Babylon-5 similar to the update / remake of Battlestar Galactica by HBO.  I can see Jensen in one of two roles.  He could either be Captain Sheridan or Garibaldi. Also Felicia Day could play either Ivanova or a female Captain Sheridan.

Now for Misha.  Isn’t it obvious?  Reuse Castiel’s trench coat and give him a cigar.  Poof, Colombo.  Sure the acting would be more Misha Collins than Peter Falk but  it would for sure work.

B-5, 6 & B-16, 17

These images are a bit outdated; 16 & 17 have more square footage, and the images depict most exactly B-6 as to the position of the furniture and windows of the ship. 6 and 16 are located on the port side of the ship, so accurate images for 5 and 17 would need to be mirrored.
