    I still regard this as the end of a wonderful series. I have nothing against series 5 and against the mini movies. They are all great, but this episode ends a excellent 4 series era. When you first watch it all, you might not get it, but overall, the entire series is one amazing tapestry, and this final episode does create an overall end.



    All strugles forward is a dance of one step forward, two steps back, and it is clearly shown in this way, but in the end, the journey does not end, but starts a new stage. This openness of it is seldom show in a series, and that makes it so much more valueble to get it that way.

    I must admit this episode confused me at first, and I wasn't really digging it. I mean, it's basically a huge list of spoilers for things we both are and aren't going to see. Sheridan dies in his 20 years, B5 blows up at the same time, something messed up happens with his and Delenn's son, blah blah blah. I'd rather be surprised. And the fact that Delenn has to live at least another 80 years after Sheridan's dead is just depressing and reminds me of Arwen and Aragorn. I suppose the only high points of the episode were that Holo-Garibaldi really screwed that guy up good, and that Ranger-Monk on Earth in 3262 was pretty funny. At the end it was kind of a neat perspective that yes, history is very subjective, but they will be remembered, that our actions have long term consequences, and that we're all part of the grand scheme of things. The other bummer is it looks like with her being stationed on a ship on a one year shakedown cruise, Ivanova won't be around anymore. F**k! At least I get to still watch my 2nd favorite character.

    The Deconstruction of Falling Stars was a perfectly amazing episode of Babylon 5 and a perfect finale for season 4. I really enjoyed watching this episode because there was a lot of interesting stories and circumstances of the future which were explored. I thought this was a very unique episode and it let viewers see what might have come of every thing Sheridan and Delenn have done. I wonder who the guy in the end is, though it is obvious he is an ascended being similar to the Vorlons. This was a fun episode which shows how history can be manipulated by the future. This episode asks viewers what they really know about the world they live in today, which is a question for all time. I look forward to the next season!!!!!!!
  • the final episode in season 4 does it go out with a bang.

  • This episode was very well crafted. It took a look at the impact of Babylon 5 over the course of thousands of years.

    This episode was very well crafted. It took a look at the impact of Babylon 5 over the course of thousands of years. It shows the great planning of the series. It even used a scene from an episode in season 5, which hadn't even been filmed yet. It alludes to Sheridan's son, the "Great Burn" on Earth, and the eventually reemergence of Humans to a point where they are very similar to the Vorlons. It also shows the sun exploding, which will eventually happen, and which was mentioned numerous times in the series. This was a good way to end the season and show the impact of Babylon 5.
