did any sci-fi show do it better?

jump gates. my god jump gates. Babylon 5 did it so damn well. you see those gates open and you just get hyped when you see a bunch of White Stars drop in guns blazing. Did any other show or movie do it better? I remember being a teen watching Babylon 5 on TNT like 5 nights a week and getting excited watching the show and it seems like all hope is lost and then suddenly, jump gates. Sorry just watching Thirdspace this morning and i’m like “yeah buddy, white stars and jump gates”.

It was the dawn of the third age of mankind. Ten years after the Earth Minbari war. The Babylon project was dream giving form. It’s goal to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It’s a port of call. Home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanders. Humans and aliens wrap in two million five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it’s our last best hope for peace. This is the story of last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5.
