That's true. Once he went away they seemed instead to have a few random human thugs from time to time who would be "running" Down Bellow. The most notable being Bull from "NIght Court."

Perhaps those random thugs took out N'Grath and took over his criminal empire.
I think they just didn’t want to use the puppet. It looked awkward and ungainly at the best of times, and couldn’t move mucharound the set. Plus, as the character didn’t breathe normal air, the plot always had to stop so people could go visit him (nece$$itating an extra $et plu$ $moke effect$, ga$ mask$, etc.). Not at all surprised if the writer(s) just ditched him in favour of more forgettable, but cheaper and more mobile, human thugs.

I would imagine with the technology today N’grath would be able to work easily. I mean Farscape did it pretty well on a tight budget.
You know I wouldn't mind a reboot or just a spin-off that sort of feels like a reboot. Babylon 5 must have been around for several years in between Lochley's command and from when we finally see the station destroyed. I know we lost many of the actors who could show up but you still have some that you could see from time to time like Sheridan or Londo or Ivanova or Delean. Sheridan and Delean's Son could be a important character on the show. ALso the time difference means you can make the sets more modern looking.

There was a Raid.
LMAO!!! That was awesome.
No, I think it was called Off.
Sleeping In the Light takes place 20 years after Z'ha'dum, The Hour of the Wolf & What Happened to Mr. Garibaldi?. And Lost Tales has Lochley in her 10th year of Command on B5.
I was watching the episode with the assassin who tries to kill G'Kar. I was looking at that actor. I recognized his face, but couldn't place it obviously with the Narn makeup. I thought I saw him as some CSI villain or something. So I looked on Wikipedia.

Babylon 5 was always pretty good with implying a larger world than what we saw. The station itself could be an interesting location for an anthology series. If it was focused more on the street-level, you wouldn't even need to restrict yourself to, say, the gap period between TLT and SIL. "There are a quarter-million stories where the lights are always on..."
If memory serves me, the assassin is played by Thomas Kopache, who is one of the few actors to play characters in all Berman era spinoffs.
I could cope with some recasting some characters for minor appearances for a continuation. I would though, rather the story continued with a fresh cast of characters.
