Just got up to the episode where they introduce the Nightwatch. It’s a brilliant piece of writing depicting the use of “special roles” to “help”.
They instantly reminded me of the “brown shirts” and equivalent that Mussolini and Hitler used when Fascism was first popularised.
It’s scary that it is still so relevant. Almost as if we don’t learn from history (or science fiction for that matter).
Heck yeah! It’s hard to choose favorites, but a lot of my favorite episodes are in the second half of S3. Since B5 had its story planned from the get go the seasons land more like book plot; and we’re firmly in the rising action section!
Bester is a wonderful weasel that I love to hate haha, some of the best one liners.
I live vicariously through people discovering this show, so thanks for sharing!
