Ever stop to wonder what’s in a simple day like today? There’s no guarantee that today will bring about anything substantial. In fact, today could be a big flop on the ground and no one would notice. I don’t know how any of that tends to work out though. It’s life right? Oh life, what are you even on about? I don’t understand you at times. It would be nice to be able to grasp something, even if it’s out of thin air, to understand and realize what that’s all about. But alas I cannot do that. It is life after all, and we cannot really understand anything that comes our way. If I had the ability to realize my own potential, I think I could benefit from it all. But I don’t know how to do that. It’s a shame really, to want to be able to do something with this life and then to be stuck without any reason for it? Yeah, no bueno.
Oh, Season Four, what have you done to me? It's been years since I watched Babylon 5. I'm doing a rewatch now and I'm in the midst of Season Four. I forgot a lot of things that went on. I remember not liking the whole Garibaldi story arc the first time around. I didn't like that he left B5 as security chief or anything like that. This second time I'm watching it, I understand more. I get why he did it. Bester's a jerk, but he's one of my favorite characters.
I wonder how Sinclair would have been played out in this season had the actor been able to stay on. I understand the reasons he left; I get it. But it's still an interesting thought. Garibaldi's betrayal would have played out differently. Hit harder in that sense.
The whole episode about Sheriden's interrogation is magnificent. It really captured what torture can do to a person, I think. Top notch writing. The stories make up for the cgi that's decades old. Such good story telling for sure.
