Mira's fate has really bitter after taste, given the history of balkans. As a Croatian who had married a serb, she got blacklisted from croatian theather scene for speaking out against the conduct of her fellow Croatians(she also refused to quit peforming in Belgrade) during Yugoslav break-up wars (the fact that she was married to an ethnic Serb didn't help matters). It tells something how deep that hostility goes that Croation weekly news magazine Globus publicly apologized their smear campaing against Mira week after she had died. Sure, better late than never, but they could've issued that apology when she was still alive.

The scene with ISN going dark is probably one of the most chilling moments ever. Journalists are usually taken for granted. They're yapping and yapping some stuff for their own agenda, who cares. But here a journalist tried to do his solemn duty to say the truth. All the truth. And he was silenced before he could finish his job. It's really scary. ISN was a great thing in B5 from a story telling perspective and I find it funny that other races don't have journalism unlike the Humans.

The scene where the Narns get ambushed is heartbreaking every time I watch it. They disobeyed Garibaldi's order to stay and wait, and instead ran into the fire. It might speak to the character of the Narns and why they lost the war. But it sucks seeing them dying when they didn't have to. Such a proud and sad people that went through so much pain and suffering.

They knew the first spot gave a foothold for the boarding troops, which would lead to more problems. They were trying to get them upon entry, at a chokepoint, and cut down on losses and other issues. They were too slow. It also shows that they know what the cost is to giving an inch of ground. Sucks to witness, but powerful message displayed.

It was a result of bad luck. They were setting up to choke them at a bottle neck, only to realize with no time to change position that they were breaching behind where they’d thought. Staying put would have meant the breaching soldiers could ignore them and advance into the station. At least the entry point neither side had cover. God knows how hard it might have been if they gotten in where they could hunker down behind cover and/or spread out on the station.

Yes the script called for his leg to be hurt, not his arm. But he waited to go to the hospital till they filmed the last scene of the day. He did not want to have to make them film it late, thus making the episode late. Granted the CGI rendering of this ep almost caused the episode to be late anyway. Also there was a insite told by JMS later on. Twice on the show when Garabaldi was written to be injured, something would happen in real life to him. So he made JMS promise not to write anymore scenes of Garabaldi getting seriously hurt.

I don't know if it was said on the live stream but there is a great blooper from this episode. When the Major comes in and says that General Hauge was dead.. he originally came in and said "He couldn't make it. His agent double booked him on Deep Space Nine." Additional... you guys have no idea how terrifying a single Minbari War Cruiser is to an Earth ship. And Delenn brought 3. When you guys eventually watch the movie about the Earth Minbari War... you'll realize how OP they are.

Babylon 5 only won two Emmy Awards, one for makeup and one for visual effects. I think you're thinking of the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation. This was their 2nd win of that award, following The Coming Of Shadows. They were nominated for, but did not win, for "The Gathering" (series pilot) and "Sleeping In Light" (series finale). In the latter episode, the Hugo trophy won for this episode appears as a prop on General Ivanova's desk :)

And now you know why this episode is considered by many as THE BEST of B5. To be clear,the rest of us think it's one of the best. The main competition is the two parter WWE, eps 16 and 17 of this season. Guys, you are forgetting an important part of Delenn's speech: "He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else". The closing part is important. There's no way Earth's military would go against the Minbari. All the flag officers in EarthForce are veterans of the Earth-Minbari war. They certainly won't even THINK about reenacting that disaster. And "Garibaldi better not be dead"? You guys just wait.

When the ISN studio gets hit and the ceiling starts falling, the newscaster's reactions looked so real because they were. The debris falling so close was an accident.

I dont recall an actual head ount, but if all rhe non-warrior castefollowed, and the Grey Council is made up of 9, that would be 5 of 9 since the council was off balance with warrior caste having 4 members. But then, I couldve missed something.

It had been weakened to allow her to do this - but not weakened enough (and there's a funny blooper that shows this). They further weakened the staff, Mira broke it, and the scene was continued.

How can they tell who's who? IFF. Identification: Friend or Foe. A signal is sent out by each ship that 'interrogates' other craft in the area. That signal must be replied with the correct code. For example your ship sends out a QXO signal. The correct reply is PBD. If that isn't received the craft giving the incorrect reply is marked as a 'Foe'.

Just to show how scared the earth ships were they didn't use the jump gate to retreat, they fired up their own jump drives and opened the vortex behind them as they turned to run

Put yourself back in the 90’s. Tv didn’t have story arcs. Star Trek had a couple episodes that called back to earlier episodes, but there was never any tv with large story arcs. Today there are huge arcs that rarely come to ahead. I’m glad u r all diggin it.

Every time I see the Mimbari ships arrive I feel a sense of relief, then it switches to Delenn and I get nervous. Like a Titan arriving on the battlefield, and everyone becomes the prey.

To comment about how they know who to target, even though some of what they do is visual, they are also paying attention to their HUDs, which have IFF Friend or Foe identification that was already pre-set.

Didn’t see it mentioned but Jerry Doyle actually broke his arm during the shooting of the big brawl. In the scene where Zack is helping him, he ain’t acting. The director asked if he could the scene while they were waiting for the ambulance and he agreed.

Back when I was a kid, I remember watching B5 on Saturday afternoons. I know the CG textures look dated now, but at the time, we'd never seen anything like it before. They really were pioneers in visual FX. To this episode: simply flawless. And there is more - much more to come.

Not coincidentally, my favourite episodes of Babylon 5 (and I've watched every bit of it at least a dozen times through) are the four that they were nominated for the Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation: "The Gathering" - nominated (series pilot) "The Coming Of Shadows" - won "Severed Dreams" - won "Sleeping In Light" - nominated (series finale) Fun fact: the Hugo Award trophy they won for this episode appears as a prop on a desk in "Sleeping In Light" - which was a great flex :)

Glad you got to see Delenn's Crowning Moment of Awesome! RIP Mira. Delenn: "If you value your lives: Be Somewhere Else!" Clarks's Earthforce Captains: "Err, I left the oven on." "Oops! I forgot my dental appointment." "I think the dog ate my orders."

keep in mind, according to lore making those jump gates is not something you can just *do*, you have to make calculations and plots before hand. So in all likely hood those pilots were making the calculations the minute the Minbari showed up and the lead ships statement was already just bluster because he probably *had* to say something on record rather than just fleeing in silence .

After all this time, to see this scene again.... Hollywood, take notes... THIS IS HOW YOU CREATE A STRONG FEMALE CHARACTER.... doesn't have to be able to beat everyones ass without messing up her hair, no OP superpowers, still able to love, be feminine and vulnerable.... BUT still instill in you the fear like when your mom calls you by your first, middle and last name.... you know shit was shat in those Human captains as the halled ass ...😂😂😂😂

Having so many ships onscreen and all doing maneuvering I think really was something that you couldn’t easily do with physical models. CGI lets you press a button and more ships appear. That’s why Trek ship battles are so boring compared to B5
