I understand that WB owns the rights, lock, stock and barrel, but
does that imply that they have the right to edit content? I am concerned
that the ads,which imply a different plot line than the one you had
envisioned may come to pass, as a result of "artful" re-editing by the staff
at WB. Is this a possibility or do you hold ..well, for lack of a better
term, certain inalienable rights to what you have created??

WB doesn't make those ads, they're made by TNT.

I was personally quite disappointed with the TNT "trailers" for B5 each week.
PTEN did some great 15 second "snaggers", however. They really made you want
to watch the upcoming episode. TNT shot themselves in the foot by producing
such uninteresting promos. I think that they just weren't interesting enough
to snag new viewers. (Not to mention that the announcer didn't seem to have
any charisma.)
