Fun to watch, but dumb
19 January 2007
Warning: Spoilers
This is both one of the more fun episodes to watch BUT also one of the dumbest episodes as well--an odd combination, to say the least! So why is it so dumb? Well, Michael York plays a man who thinks he's King Arthur! With this premise, how can the episode not be pretty lame?! Sure, later in the episode they give a pretty rational explanation for this delusion (thank goodness), but this doesn't completely salvage the show. But, fortunately, there was a wonderful injection of humor that lightened the mood (especially since a lot of this show was very dark). This occurs after "Arthur" gets in a fight with some thugs and meets G'Kar in the process. Watching them partying afterward and becoming blood brothers was a real hoot. But, considering the whole Arthur angle and how this show has NOTHING to do with the ongoing plots on B-5, it's a pretty skip-able episode.
