Two parters in such a serialized series seem like they dont make sense, but I kind of view this one as a TV movie that got broken into two episodes. There were some dangling plot threads, and this episode comes … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…- “War Without End Part 1”
With a title like “Interludes and Examinations” you would think that this would be a breather episode, or maybe a quieter one that sits with our characters. Instead we get a major character death, a major development in the war … Continue reading The Last Best Hope… – “Interludes and Examinations”
Now that Season 3 has provided some breathing room, it is back to the races with an arc heavy episode with everyone’s favorite recurring antagonist, Bester. I can see why they brought him back since Babylon 5 oddly enough does … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…- “Ship of Tears”

Since episode eight we have been primarily dealing with Earth and it’s civil war. The human characters have been taking center stage, though there have been some great sub plots involving Delenn and Londo. “Sic Transit Vir” then comes along … Continue reading The Last Best Hope… “Sic Transit Vir”
We come down from the delirious highs of “Severed Dreams” with a quieter episode that is all about immediate consequences, and how we move on while dealing with them. It makes sense that you cant do something as crazy as … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…- “Ceremonies of Light and Dark”
While Point of No Return shares its name with the whole season, and represents the increasingly desperate measures the main crew are taking to keep the conflict from erupting, Severed Dreams is all about not shying from that fight once … Continue reading The Last Best Hope… – “Severed Dreams”
Last week’s episode ratcheted up the tensions among the Earth based characters, and delivered a bomb shell ending of the president declaring martial law. This week is a great episode that shows off how big momentous things happening at the … Continue reading The Last Best Hope…-“Point of No Return”
