So my wife and I were watching through Babylon 5 on Tubi. We’ve both never seen it and have really enjoyed it. We hit the end of season 4 and it really felt like the end of the show (I’m aware of the background issues and also that the season 5 finale was filmed for the end of season 4 but then shifted around) and we were very satisfied with where everything was left. We took a break to put a hold at our library on a DVD of the movies to watch “In the Beginning” before we started season 5. Got the DVD, started watching it, and my wife started falling asleep, so we stopped and just…haven’t gone back. I can’t explain it, but neither of us feel super motivated to continue even though we were really enjoying the show.
So, B5 fans who have watched the whole series, what can you say to motivate us to continue watching?!

If you’re emotionally invested in seeing out the Londo/G’Kar story arc, then it’s worth suffering through the telepath storyline to get to.
the telepath storyline
aka “the kelly family in space”
It’s not as good as seasons 3 or 4, but it’s still good. Better than Andromeda or some other shows from the same era
andromeda had a nice premise but i never liked the fact that civilizations agreed so easily to rebuild the commonwealth
Season 5 follows the single episode format.
Did you notice that on every 50 minute episode, pretty much everything gets resolved 40 minutes in, then you have the last 10 minutes or so?
Season 5 is the seasonal equivalent of that last 10 minutes. :)
