Synopsis:
ALIENATION AMONG THE ALIEN NATIONS! Welcome, interstellar travelers! Two episodes from the first season of Babylon 5 jumpgate you into the 23rd century! MIDNIGHT ON THE FIRING LINE -- Will the space station that is the universe's last, best hope give way to no hope? Sinclair (Michael O'Hare), Garibaldi (Jerry Doyle) and other station leaders face the saber-rattling of potential war when a mysterious unprovoked attack on agrarian planet Raghesh 3 brings long-festering hatreds between Centauri and Narn races to the boiling point. SOUL HUNTER--He's feared by all. And no wonder: the collector of souls (W. Morgan Sheppard) who's slipped aboard is a renegade who murders beings instead of waiting for them to die! These early Babylon 5 episodes offer tantalizing glimpses into what will unfold during the series. In "Midnight on the Firing Line" newly arrived Lieutenant Commander Ivanova (Claudia Christian) aids Commander Sinclair (Michael O'Hare) in two separate crises affecting Babylon 5; the Narn attack on the Centauri colony of Ragesh III and a vicious attack by raiders. Both crises will loom large throughout the course of Babylon 5's first season. In "Soul Hunter" a psychotic Soul Hunter arrives on Babylon 5, intent on collecting the soul of a prominent individual. Newly arrived medical chief Doctor Franklin (Richard Biggs) plays an important part in this episode. We also learn a bit more about the mysterious Minbari ambassador Delenn's (Mira Furlan) past. These are the first two episodes of Babylon 5 (after the pilot there was a six month wait while the PTEN network figured out what to do with B5. The first episode (Midnight) had some real weak moments to it. Overall it worked and it did set in motion the plot of the next four years. Soul Hunter is actually a fairly good episode. Somewhat unusual for B5 in that the alien here (the Soul Hunter) really is a purely evil (insane by the standards of his race). This was the first episode of B5 that made me think this series might really do something worthwhile. Not nearly as good as later episodes but still, worth owning for true fans.
