Sorry this one's a day late; been super busy on a video I'll have out later today that I felt a need to get out, as well as short film stuff. But speaking of which; here's the latest Jumpgate podcast on one of "the last, best" episodes of Babylon 5 before the everything goes to hell with Earth... but it sure is exciting to watch! And be on the lookout cause I'll have a fun video later this week for everyone to make everyone smile after so much darkness.

I'm in the process of watching the entire series through for the first time. That opening with Ivanova getting the breakfast from Marcus was fun. The scene between Sheridan and DeLeon in the sleeping quarters was great. The space effects of B5 may not always hold up but it was the writing and chemistry of the cast that made the show great.

I think the moment with Sheridan is less about right or wrong then how big the moment of actually firing on your on people is for him… I grant that should have been made clearer within the episode, but as I recall that’s the subject of episodes to come

I think the opening with Marcus sending Ivanova breakfast works better in hindsight, once we've gotten to know Marcus better and understand how awkward and naïve he is in regards to relationships. He strikes me as a theatre nerd / book geek who falls back on his extensive knowledge of fictional worlds in situations where he lacks experience with actual people. Also, I genuinely wonder if he would have sent Ivanova bacon if he had known she was Jewish.

That always struck me as Sheridan not wanting to fire on people who weren't doing anything illegal. They were defending Earth space rather than enforcing Clark's reign of terror.
