Ya'll got it right. Season 5's opening was such a banger we litterally recessed from our wedding to it. Bride, groom and 3 pair of attendants double-timed it out down the aisle to a live guitar cover of the march picking up right after the last line of dialogue when the logo comes up and the actor credits begin. (It's also in my last wishes that they play "Dying Station" from sleeping in light at my funeral, the "Make them cry" song.)
Great podcast about a couple of Trekkies watching B5 for the first time, giving running commentary, and trying (usually in vain) to predict what will happen next.
