What Year Is This Set In?


Does any one who when this is supposed to be set? I'm half way through watching it just now and am getting a bit confused.

In my copy it appears that one of G'Kar's eyes keeps changing from Red to Blue! At first when I saw the blue eye I assumed it was between seasons 4-5, then his eye went red again and I'm stuck again!

then there was the mention of President Sheridan, so I assume it's Post Season 5, but didn't G'Kar go walkabout with Lyta?

Help!! Am I thick, or missing something?

Thanx

The story takes place in 2265.
Apparently, jms (the creator for of B5) stated that the movie takes place "just under 3 years after the events of 'Objects at Rest.'". Fans will know this to be the 2nd to last episode of Babylon 5's fifth and last season.

The story I've heard is that Lyta came back and started the telepath war, in which she was killed. This was also around three years after "Objects at Rest". Whether she came back before, after, or with G'Kar I'm not sure.

So it takes place before "A Call to Arms", then?

What Year Is This Set In? 2265.



B5 - Objects in Motion - December 2262 - Lyta and G'Kar leave.
B5: The River of Souls - 2263
Telepath War - 2264
B5: Legend of the Rangers pilot movie - 2265
B5: A Call to Arms - late December 2266 to early January 2267
Crusade - "War Zone" - early January 2267

Crusade was to have taken place 2267-2271.

One minor tweak... Watch Thirdspace between Atonement and Racing Mars. Zack gets his new uniform in Atonement; he's wearing it in Thirdspace.
