Babylon 5 rewatch: A Race Through Dark Places

Continuing on with our weekly rewatch, and tonight this telepath heavy story. Which was very enjoyable. Though also made me think of how much more I enjoyed it than the more clumsily handled IMHO later telepath stuff in season 5. Though perhaps not having the overwrought Byron helped … Also further nice development of Sheridan and Ivanova’s working relationship, and big moves in Sheridan and Delenn. Of course Ivanova and Talia also start properly here, though that’s going to be sidetracked soon. And thinking about that retrospectively at this point you do have to wonder how all the different elements of Talia’s psyche managed to co exist.

I now want next week’s episode now, but will wait a week. It is my all time favourite B5 episode.

P.S. The complete series Blu-ray box is on the way to us. It was supposed to come today (to a nearby locker) but there's been a slip-up in today's delivery. But we should hopefully have it soon. We are currently watching via streaming though, the remastered versions. But I still want the Blu-ray box. Even if, annoyingly, it doesn't have the space station in the cover image.
