Pros: Classic Ground Breaking Series.
Cons: Should have Added at least 2 or 3 more Episodes, and Have Done at least 1, truthfully 2 more Movies.
This season remides me of the reviews and limitations of the Star system with regards to the James Cameron film "Abyss".
The first half of the final season, ( episodes 1 - 12 ) 4 1/2 - 5 stars.
From the half way point up to the final Six episodes ( epsiodes 13 - 16 ); 4 - 41/2 Stars. The drppoed balls and unanswered issues and questions start to add up.
The Final six episodes ( episodes 17 - 22 ), 2 - 2 1/2 stars. The unanswered questions and unresolved issues come roaring up. Including a, how shall I describe this "So - Called" commentary by the series creator for episode 18 - Fall fo Centari Prime, I will describe it this way - "the Musing of a Ignorant Idiot !!!! in regards to the way things work regading choice, of to be more precise the ILLUSION of Choice !!!! Especially when he totally one choice that Londo should and would have had and done.
The legendary College Football Coach JOE PATERNO, said it best - You can only control your own actions and reactions to some degree by Preparing as best you can. Because once you take the field and the game starts your can not control the refs, the clock, etc. just your actions as best as you can.
The final episode was great, yet it felt like it was missing something.
Overall, in regards to the Event that they wanted to make the final season, they Should have done the following:
Added at least 2 or 3 more Episodes, Final episode should have been a two hour special.
Have Done at least 1, truthfully 2 more Movies. Especially because some of the answers came within the 3 book trio by Peter David Legion of Fire trilogy, in which the 3rd and final book is no longer in print and if you wish to get a copy of it, it will cost you close to $100.00.
Overall I loved the series, and I truly understand not wishing to tell everything, however like some many other fans, whos reviews I read, I truly fealt dissapointed because of unresolved, unanswered questions and Blantently dropped balls in this final season.
