I never noticed that until I read this thread. Good point
There really wasn't a lot for Sinclair or Lochley to do, so going around the station and solving all of the problems took up much of their time. Sheridan on the other hand was busy fighting wars most of the time, First the Shadow War, then the EA Civil War.

David Martel: Yeah, well, it made me feel better.

Sheridan, virtually right off the bat, made it known that he didnt want to deal with every day station problems. He promoted Ivanova, and had her handle most of the everyday diplomatic issues. He even bitched out Garibaldi for informing him on every little detail, telling him he expects Michael to handle them himself.
So Sheridan was never really in that problem solver role. He was put on B5 to find out if the crew was loyal, then soon after found him self smack in the middle of the General Hague / EA conspiracy, as well as learning about the coming Shadow War. So even in his early days he didnt fit the same role that Sinclair and Lochley filled.

Hmm. Good call, jnk5y. I hadn't noticed that. That may be one of the reasons they are my least favorite seasons.
Just to be clear: I said they are my least favorite seasons. I don't hate them by any strech of the imagination.

Interesting.
I wonder how the middle of Season 4 can seem boring.
For me, it would be among the least likely candidates.
Perhaps of due to my interest in all affairs Minbari.
Perhaps because I missed that part in 1998.
Perhaps because of our first glimpse at the Drakh and a Keeper,
developments on on Babylon 5, Earth and Mars.
The Illusion of Truth
Atonement
Racing Mars
Lines of Communication
Conflicts of Interests
Rumors, Bargains and Lies
Moments of Transition
To me, most of these episodes were fairly interesting.

I like season one because Micheal O'Hare and a bald headed Delenn I still think she could have lived up to her people's prophecies and remained in her original form.Just my two cents

an interesting way to explain how the triluminaries came to be.

I suspect Sinclair/Valen was full Minbari in appearance only, since he later had children who were not pure Minbari, and had Human genes.
