“The Babylon project was our last, best hope for peace. It failed. bum bum bah In the year of the Shadow War it became something greater; our last best hope for victory.”

Edit; I’m actually doing a rewatch now and nearing the end of Season 4. I already miss Season 3. Although nothing beats “Drazi: Captain, we’re sorry we thought you were dead. Sheridan: I was, I’m better now.”

Exactly.

It's right about time for yet another rewatch, too.

It remains topical to this day. Appeasement and other historical references just keep repeating ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Who are you?

What do you want?

Why are you here?

Where are you going?

Do you have anything worth living for?

Fun fact you might already know! Lorien’s actor did a lot of work on B5 as aliens. His human appearance was Sebastian (remembered only as Jack)

The universe began with a word. But which came first: the word or the thought behind the word?

He's so damn good! The makeup is just 👩🏼‍🍳😙👌🏼 I have a mighty need for a rewatch!

I rewatch fairly often 😅 especially when I’m indoctrinating someone close to me to the series haha. I was born when it premiered and watched it when young. I live vicariously through newcomers reactions to plot reveals.

It’s one of those shows that gets better and better upon rewatching as there are references to upcoming events if you know what to look for.

I just need to buy the DVD set tbh, last I watched it was yearssss ago 😭 but I'm proud of myself for remember the questions haha

There's so much foreshadowing! Fuck, off I go to get the set haha

I’ve bought the series multiple times over 🫠 the dvds are great though for the commentary. There are some actor commentaries and some from JMS. Also the outtakes for each season are wonderful; I still reference them to this day haha
