For much of the first season of Babylon 5, the series still hadn't established any sort of over-arching plot to connect the episodes like it would have in seasons 2 through 5. In some ways, it was as if the genius behind the series, Michael Staczynski was still trying to feel for a sense of direction. Because of this, so many of the season one episodes are self-contained in that they don't connect well with previous or later episodes. This is pretty much the way of sci-fi shows like Star Trek, but for B-5, this makes these earlier episodes less satisfying.
Now this isn't to say that this Soul Hunter episode is bad--it's actually pretty interesting and highly creative. The idea of a race of beings that scavenge souls when a person dies is so unusual that it makes this a memorable show. See it, but don't expect the magic you'll see in later episodes.
