It strikes me that a new series could be made in the B7 universe by following what happened to Jenna after the events of Star One. Plenty of contemporary actors would jump at the chance to play a well written version of Jenna. A smart, tough sometime smuggler and ex-revolutionary, surviving in a post-Federation galaxy.
