Babylon 5 - A underrated sci-fi show.

She left B5 to be a news anchor. Her arc ended with her being converted (not shown when) to Psycorp. A remaining loose plot thread is with her and Jason Lionheart.
It's surprising how seamless those trapdoors are to be honest. When the characters return, they feel like they've been changed by their reason for absence, you can feel the offscreen development Vir's explanation allows him to just continue his trajectory so he can be the character he needs to be for the stories when he gets back, and you just agree that this is how he would have developed from his time there.

And when they don't return, the replacement often deepens the themes rather than being essentially 1-1 replacement like how Sheridan fleshes out militarism, and the tension between the military and civilian government in a way Sinclar really couldn't or how no Tahlia meant the Vorlons create a weapon rather than coopting one, which says a lot about their benevolent nature

Honestly on of the best Sci-Fi shows to ever come out. Every singel episode kept me intrigued. my favorite part is the final episode of season 4 "where they keep going through different points in history, showing that Sheridan's Presidency was not the perfect and humanity continued to have it's ups and downs until they evolved past the need for the physical plane. Honestly the best ending for the show, and I'm glad Straczynski wrote such a gray ending, giving room for possible outcomes, and not making a perfect utopia as other shows would. I believe the future deaths of Londo and G'Kar also help strengthen such a good end."] I tried watching season 5 and could never get into it. Farscape is in the same tier of quality imo.
Are the movies worth watching, I know the 7th one got released a year ago.
