Angst reasons for Garibaldi in a tux? Oh damn it, it's going to be a funeral isn't it...
Eh, I'm still not sure about the effectiveness of the wife thing. I'm fine with him being a widower, but I still think it was resolved too quickly and too soon; I didn't really feel an emotional connect to those moments (especially since we'd only known Sheridan for one other episode, so we're still getting to know him), so it came off as like "oh...okay, on to the next thing" sort of deal, which is really a shame since there's a lot you could build with that issue. And I don't see why the Delenn thing could not have developed alongside it. ;-)
It seems like such a silly reason for her to leave the show when she was such a bad ass character.
I know! I keep thinking to myself "Hhmmm...badass female character with character development?....or a generic romantic female lead that usually has no development or unique features whatsoever?" And then it just doesn't compute.
You should write the Leela/Boudicca thing! It would be epic!
