The Last Best Hope…”A View from the Gallery”
I mentioned back in the Londo heavy episode that an advantage to having 22 episodes and not enough plot to fill them means that the show can luxuriate in one off episodes that do some good character building work without … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…”A View from the Gallery”
Futurama – Season 11, Episode 8: “Oceans Three”
Time for another three-shorts anthology episode … goodie. Continue reading Futurama – Season 11, Episode 8: “Oceans Three”
The Last Best Hope…-“The Paragon of Animals”
As much complaining as I have done about Season 5, there was a kernel of a good idea in some of the plots for the season. The Interstellar Alliance seems like an obviously good idea to the various planetary governments, … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“The Paragon of Animals”

The Last Best Hope…-“The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari”
With the setting up episode out of the way we get into some character building content. Season 5 is unique among the Babylon 5 seasons in that it has room for one-off episodes that the other seasons really didn’t. The … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari”

The Last Best Hope…-“No Compromises”
Lets get it out of the way at the start. I dont really care for Season 5 of Babylon 5. I am not alone in this. Most fans of the show feel that this is probably the weakest season, even … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“No Compromises”
Come Along With Me: Adventure Time – “Temple of Mars” and “Gumbaldia”
When is it time to give up? — Jake is still missing, and Finn is still hopeful that his BRB is NBD; or maybe he’s just repressing. But after Jermaine saw Jake in a dream, stranded on a far-off planet … Continue reading Come Along With Me: Adventure Time – “Temple of Mars” and “Gumbaldia”

The Last Best Hope…-“The Deconstruction of Falling Stars”
For a low-budget show that would go on to 110 hour long episodes, it is practically a miracle that we never got a Babylon 5 clip show. Clip shows are a producers dream, even cheaper than a bottle episode, and … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“The Deconstruction of Falling Stars”

The Last Best Hope…-“Rising Star”

The Last Best Hope…- “Between the Darkness and the Light”
After the somewhat experimental “Intersections in Real Time” Babylon 5 gets back to normal business.

The Last Best Hope…-“Intersections in Real Time”
For all of its work in popularizing serialized storytelling on TV, Babylon 5 was at its heart a very traditional show. Guest stars come in and out, many plots are sewn up at the end of the hour, and we … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Intersections in Real Time”
