Crusade

 I've been watching the B5 spin-off series Crusade. Almost done with its one and only season. A shame it was cut short by TNT. I hear it was cancelled before it even aired. Talk about a sucker punch to the gut if you ask me. I know there are negotiations that have to go with these things. But wow, and a complete shame it couldn't be picked up by the Sci-Fi (SyFy) channel. Apparently, they looked at it but couldn't come up with a budget citing they had the budget set by January of that year already. So no, they couldn't do anything about it. A real shame.

I don't remember liking the series the first time I watched it, all 13 episodes of it. Well, there was one I enjoyed, it's the one with the aliens saying they've been visited by humans, but it was a ploy of their own government to end civil wars. (Visitors From Down The Street)

A second watch through and I am just loving this series. Maybe I wasn't paying attention to it the first time around. That can happen if something doesn't catch my attention right away. Well, I love the series, even if it's only 13 episodes long. Did I mention it's only 13 episodes long? If I haven't there you have it. There's also a made for TV movie that kicks off the series. I need to watch that.

Suicidal Ideation

 Over the years I've had to deal with suicidal ideation. Those are thoughts of being dead, some more extreme than others. It causes issues for me a lot of the time. It's not an easy thing to talk about at all. Here's what it is: Suicidal ideation ( suicidal thoughts )  are thoughts or ideas centered around death or suicide . Experiencing suicidal ideation doesn’t mean you’re going to kill yourself, but it can be a warning sign.

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

Babylon 5 Destruction

 I always get emotional watching the last episode of Babylon 5. Especially the destruction of the station. There are so many good memories of the series that it's just emotional watching JMS flipping the switch and the station exploding as the last transport leaves. It's like oh the series is really over. The station has served its purpose not needed anymore. Was peace ever really achieved though? It makes me wonder. I've only watched the series once all the way through, I'm on a second rewatch. One of my favorite characters is Mr. Morden. I'm not sure why that's the case, he's creepy as all get out. I just know that he intrigues me for some reason or another. Kosh is also a mystery, but he's meant to be that way. He's an alien that no one seems to understand or grasp. The whole story arc is simply amazing. It was television ahead of its time. I'm glad it was made. Talk about a brilliant television series. It was one of the first serialized shows...
