Now that I can watch this on HBO Max I am starting my rewatch of Babylon 5. I last watched Babylon 5 when it originally aired. I really don't remember any of this. I'm starting with The Gathering as that's listed as episode 1 on HBOMax.

I had a long day but I managed to finish S1 Ep1 The Gathering It was really good beginning. The CGI is really bad but I can still watch it

I thought it was done pretty well. I like Sheridan but Sinclair had his own charm. Not sure why they changed it like they did and then having Sinclair show up again and in charge of the Rangers.

That's depressing. I just got to episode 21 Season 2

Thoughts so far

I kind of got the impression Ivanova and Lyta were romantically involved kind of sucks to see Lyta go because I really liked that character and its kind of a bummer ending. Londo is a different story dude just kind of made a deal with the devil which was kind of depressing as well .

This show really really doesn't mind doing downer episodes. Very rarely are there episodes where its like " Oh there's a good outcome". No its most all just death and more death.

Just chiming in again to say that I made it to Season 3 E16 War Without end PART 1. Oh poo poo A part 1 means there is going to be a part 2. Last episode Super loving depressing, Kosh died, Londo went back to working with the Shadows after being manipulated by Morgan. drat. The Doctor just loving QUIT because he was addicted to Stim, goddamn this episode had so much poo poo going on and its just like a mid season episode

I continue to not remember any of this which is good. I know of some stuff that is going to happen FUTURE SPOILERS I know at some point Sheridan is captured by Earthcore? And given a poisoned corn beef sandwich I think? I know he goes to Zah Ha Doom. Uh I know Morden gets his come uppance , G Kar Loses his eye. I remember that

Anyway that's all I remember right now.

Super loving addictive and I've still got like 44 to I guess like 55 episodes to go which is pretty sweet. Kind of I feel at the half way mark of the series.

Well I made it Season 4 Episode 7 Lots of things! I had forgotten Vir killing the emperor. I did remember Mr. Morden's fate but it was still good to see. G'Kar! I wonder whats going to happen to him? The Vorlon Shadow conflict is over! What now? What's left? Earth? I have no idea. Sheridan only getting 20 years to live was interesting I'd forgotten that. Londo's fate from the future looks like it's probably going to come true maybe? I dunno if that future has changed.

Well this has been quite the wild ride. I have no idea whats going to happen next though. This is as far as I remember. I know of some stuff that happens. Also apparently there's a whole nother season? WTF.

Sleeping in the Light I liked the way things ended with Sheridan. I was surprised by the fact that Lorien came back to take Sheridan away. Ivanova becoming in charge of the rangers was good. Garibaldi having a daughter and living out a great life on Mars was great. I was most surprised by Vir becoming emperor. That was pretty surprising. We didn't learn much about Franklin just that he was a head of xenobiology. Still working as a doctor. I like that Sheridan visited B5 one last time. The B5 explosion was kind of weird isn't blowing it up jsut going to lead to more problems lol. Sheridan's send off was super emotional drat. I was disappointed Lennier died on his way back to his home planet. That was a little strange. Really was one of the better season finales I've seen. It didn't tie up all the loose ends but it ended in a way that was incredibly hopeful
