Body swap episodes, done well, are always fun. The actress who played
"Kirk" in "Turnabout Intruder" did a brilliant and under-appreciated job,
I think. I remember that Stargate also did one, and it was okay, not
great.
Speeches and montages like that one you sent are the kind of moments that
hook you into a series or universe. Unfortunately I had not come across
anything like that as far as I had gotten in the B5 first season, so I
drifted away from it.
