Line 25:
'''Sheridan''': I agree. There's several other parts of you I'd much rather have snapped off. }}
* In "Convictions", Garibaldi tells Zach to explain the "missionary... position" to some Drazi clerics.
* In the spin off Crusade one episode involves a human/pak'ma'ra porno that is apparently VERY attention getting.
** The characters further imply when two different species hook up some um...gadgets might be involved.
** One of the characters viewing the video mentions that humans and pak'ma'ra can't POSSIBLY do what it is being indicated they are about to do (becuase of, shall we say, plumbing problems)...then, apparently, they do anyway. (The file was one of several on the crystal. The most apparently straight-laced of the characters turned out to have a collection of such stuff, and mixed up his crystals when turning in a written report.)
*** Rather, the report was on the crystal, but he forgot to erase the previous data, so that the porno started as soon as the report ended. It makes one wonder if Max either a) had a shortage of empty crystals at the moment, or b) he's got so much porn he can't keep track of it all.
* Crusade also features a episode in which two characters are about to sleep together and then cuts to an scene of [[Something Else Also Rises|a cargo ship docking with Babylon 5.]]
* If we're throwing in Crusade, the Excalibur is ''humped by a space jellyfish''. Not subtle, not implied, just thrown on the screen and [[Lampshade Hanging|openly commented on]] by the characters.
** [[Crowning Moment of Funny|And it was hilarious.]]
* During Marcus' and Franklin's trip to Mars, in a ''very'' shoddy cargo hold, Franklin says that it "smells like the inside of a Martian pleasure dome on Sunday morning".
** Of course in this case, Mars is populated by humans instead of [[Green-Skinned Space Babe|Green Skinned Space Babes]], and "pleasure" could mean anything from drugs to sex to all-night raves... Or something that doesn't involve drugs and sex. But then, there's nothing to say that it ''doesn't'' mean that.
Line 42 ⟶ 35:
** JMS posted to Usenet as season 4 was getting under way that he only just realized there simply weren't any censors.
* In a second-season episode, one of Londo's wives calls another one a "[[Precision F-Strike|bitch]]". Fans asked [[Peter David]] (who wrote that episode) how he managed to get that word on the air. He responded "I didn't. I just put it in the script."
 
* In the first season episode "Infection" Garibaldi is trying to decide if he should buy some item from a shop.
** "According to the translator it's either an aphrodisiac or a floor wax. I can't decide if it's worth the risk or not." And upon deciding to buy it "If this thing leaves a waxy yellow build up on ''anything'' I'm coming back here"
 
* There's also Ivanova's "human style" sex ritual to seal an alliance with the Lumati.
