“The Long, Twilight Struggle”: Babylon 5 Watch, Part 6
Our Babylon 5 panel unpacks the final six episodes of season 2 — episodes addressing the destruction of species, war crimes and genocide, the relationship between identity (“Who are you?”) and sacrifice, and the unveiling of both Psi Corps and the Night Watch as arms of Earth Gov’s encroaching surveillance state. In these stories, Londo’s choices finally catch up with him, Sheridan and Delenn are pushed closer together, and Kosh is compelled to reveal something of himself. You can find Cindy’s Introduction to "The Curse Upon Mitre Square” here: https://www.casebook.org/dissertations/rip-cursemitre.html. This essay (mentioned in the episode) briefly traces the development of the Jack the Ripper mythos and its cultural meaning, but also contains a few crime-scene details that are not for the faint of heart.
