I agree with JMS on that one. If people want to compare the two themselves that is one thing, but to ask him to compare is kind of putting him in a compromising position. There is a thing called professional courtesy that JMS understands and many fans don't. Basically you don't say bad things about other people/shows in the same industry unless you have a damn good reason. Its all politics and JMS isn't stupid enough to risk future jobs by upsetting people he may need to work with or for.
Not to mention its a stupid question. JMS created Babylon 5. Of course he likes that best.
