8 SEP 2026 · After the massive events of “War Without End,” Babylon 5 slows things down for something much more personal. This week on Babble On, Jenny, Jenn, Gus, and Ali discuss Babylon 5 Season 3 Episode 18, “Walkabout.”
We break down Franklin’s search for who he is outside of being a doctor, Lyta’s connection to the Vorlons, G’Kar stepping further into leadership, and Sheridan putting a dangerous theory about the Shadow ships to the test. Plus, we ask why this episode is so divisive among Babylon 5 fans when we actually liked it quite a bit.
