Crusade
Who do you serve, and who do you trust?
Created by J. Michael Straczynski
On TNT
A high-stakes space opera built on a five-year existential deadline, balancing ensemble camaraderie against the constant pressure of a civilization-ending plague.
Crusade is an American spin-off TV show from J. Michael Straczynski's Babylon 5. Its plot is set in AD 2267, five years after the events of Babylon 5, and just after the movie A Call to Arms. The Drakh have released a nanovirus plague on Earth, which will destroy all life on Earth within five years if it is not stopped. To that end, the Victory class destroyer Excalibur has been sent out to look for anything that could help the search for a cure.
