90's fashions and decor are my 2nd favourite thing about Babylon 5. Look at those high-waisted pleatmaster pants and baggy pastel cloth jackets.

Zima being the only product to survive into the 2200s is my favorite joke of the entire show.

Still readily available in Japan. The only nation committed to generating artificial meteor showers and robotic eldercare. I think it just might make it.

Someone convince me I'm wrong.

If you watch Season 5 you are all clear to watch Babylon 5 Crusade.

Nothing in the shadow war disturbed me more than Lennier having to listen at the door while Delen ritually explores Sinclair's pleasure centers and then a few episodes later when Garibaldi has to watch the woman he still loves play housewife-maidservant to a wizened geriatric scrotum of a man.

I love Garibaldi's tactical fleece pullover with elasticized battle cuffs.

The Walker Smith half of the TKO episode is fantastic. You've forgotten that wandering-outsider-combatant was a major category of film back then. B5 was artistically obligated to show deference to the genre. They did a great job, the space 90's costumes were great. Its also the Zima episode. Doubley so in the sense that its an acquired taste no lost to most audiences.

The best part of the telepath plot is getting to see all those aged-out-but-still-clinging sunset strip rockband keyboarists trying their hand at extras work and earning a good day's pay for their glorious 90's man-manes. They really give it all when trying to put together "strained glance" and "collective scowl" performances.

Amazing that Jerry Doyle developed the entire set of mannerisms, speech patterns and character gestalt for Michael Garibaldi 2 years prior to landing the role.
