I've decided to do my first Babylon 5 rewatch!

Lets have a binge thread to talk about B5!

I would love to find a 4k remaster of the series, there are some great demo videos on youtube, but on the streaming sites I can only find 720p. If you have any trouble choosing which streaming service to use just search for fmhy and they will have a curated list of options.

TV shows were wild back then, 22 episodes per season, 45 minutes each; 1000 minutes per season!

Season 4 Thoughts and Comments

Season 4... is zero filler, mad dash, it felt like i watched 4 season arcs in one.

Shadow War - Sorted

Earth Civil War - Sorted

Telepaths Taking over everything - Almost sorted

Surprise galactic government - Sorted

Membari Civil War - Believe it or not, Sorted

I'm having trouble really processing it all, very dense... The arcs really needed time to breath, at some point I was feeling plot fatigue and it was just rushing over me like a tidal wave.

After the shadow war, everything else felt like petty small potatoes, it was hard to get invested emotionally in anything. This is classic plot power creep, its hard to deescalate.
