    This release has been so weird and confusing. So little fanfare/advertising for it, episodes popping up and being pulled down, no single playlist to see them all in order, it's very odd.

    Anyway, I like the episode. The acting is pretty old-fashioned compared to modern TV expectations, feels like I'm watching people in a stage production, but it's charming and I like the characters.

    Londo and Garibaldi are one of the things I remember most from the partial watch through I did way back when it was on Netflix, and I'm glad to see them again.

      I agree - it's so bizarre to me that there is no playlist and the episodes are out of order. I spent 20 mins trying to find Midnight On the Firing Line (actual episode 1) and couldn't!

Unfortunately the YouTube video now has been region locked to the US, but feel free to participate if you like to. Use best judgement on spoilers, and if something ties into something that's to come, use the details tags.

    FYI for folks this is also showing as available for free on the Roku Channel! Not sure how regions work for that.
