Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer, Bret and Arkle discuss the “Objects at Rest”. Depending on how you choose to look at the “novel” structure of Babylon 5, this is the finale, with “Sleeping in Light” acting as the epilogue. Either way, doors are closing, lives are changing, and time is marching on.
The Babylon Podcast: All Episodes
Babylon Podcast #186: Objects in Motion (Season 5)
Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Bret delve deeply into “Objects in Motion”.
Babylon Podcast #185: Wheel of Fire (Season 5)
Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss “Wheel of Fire”, somewhere in there amidst the many game show inspired puns.
While the public reveal and fallout over Garibaldi’s drinking will have a farther reaching impact amongst the crew and even out to Mars than initally expected when this episode first aired, was it truly breaking ground in terms of the television portrayal of someone struggling with alcoholism beyond the stereotypes built in previous decades?
Babylon Podcast #184: The Fall of Centauri Prime (Season 5)
Tim and Summer discuss “The Fall of Centauri Prime”.
Londo’s journey into his solitary reign, presiding over a beaten and broken populace, is now complete. And did Delenn do the right thing in trying to ignore Lennier’s “dying” declaration — did her actions help, or make Lennier feel worse?
Babylon Podcast #183: Movements of Fire and Shadow (Season 5)
Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss “Movements of Fire and Shadow”.
Tim believes the episode doesn’t quite pull together in as good a cohesive satisfying whole as it could have been, saving graces of the ability of various bipedal races to fart on command notwithstanding.

Babylon Podcast #182: And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder (Season 5)
Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss “And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder”, including production questions that Jeffrey can lend insight to. I bet you didn’t know that it took a technician to create that perfect “bed head” look, didja?
Babylon Podcast #181: Darkness Ascending (Season 5)
Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Jeffrey discuss many of the consquences and the subtexts in “Darkness Ascending”.
We argue for quite a bit about the nature of Garibaldi’s dream, how much was dream and how much was or wasn’t influenced by Lyta’s telepathic curiosity (and whether or not that itself was real or dream), and talk a bit more about Lennier and his mission, and of the telepath DNA deal between Lyta and G’Kar.
