The fifth and final season begins with our introduction to Captain Elizabeth Lochley. In some ways she’s a lightning rod of a character with a strong personality, a strong military record, and a plan for fixing Babylon 5. Many view … Continue reading →
Join us for what Join us for what is perhaps the oddest episode of the entire series. In this set of vignettes, we’re prepared for Season 5 through several snapshots in time. Our journey begins with John and Delenn’s new … Continue reading →
After the intensity of the last episode, and the end of the war, we see things wrapping up. Marcus is dying and his final moments show some of Claudia Christian’s (Ivanova) best performances in the series. Sheridan is a full … Continue reading →
The season is coming to a head as things kick off with our heroes back on Babylon 5. In this heavily emotional episode, Susan appears to be mortally wounded, and Marcus is in worse shape than she is emotionally. Michael … Continue reading →
Should we worry about the number of Earth Force defectors, and how easy they’re coming over to support Sheridan and the Resistance? Is Clark simply so bad as to fuel so many to change sides and risk charges of treason? … Continue reading →
In this out of the ordinary episode, we discuss what’s happening now that Sheridan is imprisoned and Clark wants a confession. He’s interrogated and pressured to make a live public statement to confirm what we know as viewers is false. But in … Continue reading →
War gets closer to Earth and more former Earth Force ships are aligning themselves with sides. Sheridan’s dad is captured and being used as bait to lure Sheridan to Mars to be captured. Mike delivered the news to Sheridan that his dad … Continue reading →
William Edgars is quite powerful! Maybe more than we imagined. Garibaldi arrives on Mars and has a bunch of questions for Mr. Edgars, his new boss: first about his drug smuggling through B5; and also about receiving help from Edgars to stop Sheridan. What … Continue reading →

Enough is enough, and we find ourselves in the War Room again. Sheridan is compelled to start taking action and holds a meeting with the ambassadors from the non-aligned worlds. He states the price for them to continue to continue their relationship … Continue reading →
This aptly named episode gives Raul, Jim and JP a lot to talk about. Lots of transition happens in various story arcs, and with individual characters. The conflict on Minbar between the Warrior and Religious castes comes back into focus … Continue reading →
In this episode, Sheridan continues bargaining to establish the necessary elements of, and allies for, his campaign against Clark by creating the perception certain things are happening that might cause real harm to the worlds who aren’t very supportive of … Continue reading →
So many interests are in play now, often in conflict. Here are a few of the big ones, and no doubt there are more woven through the storyline: Conflict 1: Garibaldi is working as a private Investigator and still using … Continue reading →
Things are starting to build toward open conflict between Clark’s government and Sheridan’s forces. With everything else going on though, things begin to interfere with the plans to counter Clark. On Mars, Number One is furious when when a bomb … Continue reading →
Oh, Steven! What can we say? We all love it when we have a Dr. Franklin/Marcus episode. There was just a really great chemistry between the two. They’re on Mars to get help from the Mars resistance as part of … Continue reading →
Poor John. Problems with the in-laws has gone to a whole new level here. Seriously, though, Delenn has been running a bit rogue the last several seasons and it’s time to pay the bill. One good thing for us, … Continue reading →
There’s an old joke. How do you know a reporter is lying? His lips are moving. Ok, I’ve heard it used for several other professions, as well, but oh man, does it apply to this episode! Seriously, though, an honest and … Continue reading →
Yeah, we certainly do have a few lightbulbs going on. Bester’s got a few ideas to help save his lover involving Z’ha’dum. Londo has the idea that it might not be quite safe for him on Centauri Prime. You know, … Continue reading →
That’s one happy Vir! Londo gave him what he wants. And episode 406 is giving fans what they want. What we have been building towards for over three years now comes to a head in this episode. The Vorlons and … Continue reading →
Last time, G’kar had the long night. This time, pretty much everyone else does. Sheridan has been building the largest fleet in known history to fight both the Vorlons and the Shadows. At the same time. That weight certainly ruins the … Continue reading →
Well, we’re four episodes in and now Sheridan’s back, Garibladi’s back, even Mr. Morden is back. In fact, everything is back to normal. Or at least Babylon 5’s version of “normal” which is anything but. You see, Sheridan is playing … Continue reading →
Interesting title: The Summoning. Cartagia summons Londo. (A couple of times, actually.) Lyta summons the Vorlon. (Yeah, that probably won’t work out well. Go figure.) Sheridan summons the League. (He’s better now.) The Vorlons summon their big guns. (And they’re not … Continue reading →
Good question. It’s been 9 days since both Sheridan and Garibaldi had disappeared. Inquiring Narn want to know. And inquiring Rangers want to help him know. Sadly for G’Kar, things don’t work out quite the way he expects. However, it does … Continue reading →
We left season 3 with Captain Sheridan presumed dead in destruction of the Shadow city. Mr. Garibaldi is missing. The Shadows have been dealt a massive blow. And, well… things are generally in a huge mess. Welcome to season 4. … Continue reading →
This is it! The episode we have all been waiting for. Sheridan took on and defeated the Shadows in a military confrontation last episode. Now he has to confront them and win on an individual level. We all knew that … Continue reading →
Z minus 7 days… Hmmm, think that “Z minus” thing might mean something? Last week it was 14. This week it’s 7. Oh, and did we mention that there’s only one episode after this one in season 3? The team … Continue reading →
Z minus 14 days… We had a short breather last episode, if you can call Neroon pounding Marcus to a bloody pulp either short or a breather. Last episode was setup. This episode is just as much setup, but also … Continue reading →
And as far as some of us are concerned, that is a good thing. This show is considered by many to be one of, if not the, weakest shows of the series. Now, as far as the “A” story goes, it’s … Continue reading →
Ok, so let’s get the title related part out of the way… Dr. Franklin. Pretty girl. Walkabout. Yeah. ‘Nuff said. If that curt summary makes you think there may be some salt involved, then you’d be right. Now on to … Continue reading →
(Had a small issue with the original file – reposting) — Today we talk about the second part of the War Without End saga. This episode, in particular, does a brilliant job of interleaving parts of the season 1 episode … Continue reading →
