Babylon 5: Atonement
This is one of those weird episodes that are all about backstory for a storyline that feels like it was wrapped up long ago but when looked at carefully, that may not be the case. The only B-plot going on … Continue reading
Babylon 5: The Illusion of Truth
For reasons that will become obvious, we break with tradition and present here first… The view from across the pond: Once again Babylon 5 takes one step forward and two steps back. We have had a great run of high … Continue reading

It’s Delenn’s turn to open the episode with her “captains log”. I imagine that’s a creative choice now, based on the way the opening credits begin for the season. I don’t love it but the episode makes up for it. … Continue reading
Babylon 5: Whatever Happened to Mr. Garibaldi?
I often find myself saying “that was one of my favorite episodes” when referring to Babylon 5 and that’s a silly thing to say for two reasons. Most obviously, a favorite is the best. To have several, seems like an … Continue reading
Babylon 5: The Hour of the Wolf
Babylon 5 comes back for a 4th season with a strong opener in The Hour of the Wolf. G’Kar recaps what has gone on over the last seven days since Z’Ha’Dum: Ivanova is burned out. Londo is on Centauri Prime … Continue reading
