Season One: "Signs and Portents"
Episode Reviews

"It was the dawn of the Third Age of Mankind, ten years after the Earth/Minbari war. The Babylon Project was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where Humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call, home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers. Humans and aliens, wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night.
It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last, best hope for peace. This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258.
The name of the place is Babylon 5."
...Commander Jeffrey David Sinclair

Here the Emperor and I will be reviewing Season 1 episodes. You are welcome to write your own reviews too! Just send them to me and I will be happy to put them on this page!




Results of the Season One Poll:
FAVOURITE: Babylon Squared and Parliament of Dreams tied with two votes each.
LEAST FAVE: T.K.O. "knocked out" the competition with FIVE votes--the most ANYBODY agreed on ANYTHING.
Other episodes chosen, with one vote each, for Favourite were: A Voice in the Wilderness Part II, Mind War, Deathwalker, Believers, Chrysalis, and Signs and Portents (my vote). Others chosen for Least Fave: Infection, Mind War--yes, it was on BOTH categories!--Soul Hunter (my vote) and Believers--again, on BOTH categories.
(There are more votes for favourite than least favourite because some people evidently didn't understand the rules and only voted for the one category instead of both.)
