In the 1990s, television series like Babylon 5 required lengthy seasons with at least 20 episodes, leading to an abundance of seemingly inconsequential "filler episodes." However, these episodes often contained crucial plot developments, with one such instance being the Season 2 episode "Hunter, Prey." Though rarely remembered among the most acclaimed episodes, it subtly altered the course of the series. It appears as a standalone story about a fugitive but ultimately plays a pivotal role in the overarching narrative of the show.
During the 1990s, long serialized shows like Babylon 5 had many 'filler episodes,' but these often discreetly planted critical plot developments, enriching the narrative experience.
'Hunter, Prey,' though not often recognized as a standout episode, significantly redirected the narrative of Babylon 5 and showcased the show's innovative storytelling.
