Babylon 5 is a tough one. There is enough basic lore that you could make some structural changes and really send it's quality into the stratosphere. More of a concentration on politics, archaeological discovery and class struggles (all of the things that they touched on lightly because the audience wasn't ready for it). You could plan out a five to seven year series that would be must watch.

The hard part would be casting. Andreas Katsulas and Peter Jurasik gave almost irreplaceable performances. Steven Brust and Bruce Boxlietner roles would be hard to recast but not impossible. The rest of the cast was good, but could be replicated.

All in all, it would be up to J. Micheal Straczynski if he would want to do it.
