The fifth season of the American drama/adventure television series Highlander began airing 23 September 1996 and finished on 19 May 1997.

The series continues to follow the adventures of Duncan MacLeod, a 400-year-old Immortal who, just as the Immortals of the movies, can only die if he is beheaded.

MacLeod is involved in the Game, an ongoing battle during which all Immortals have to behead each other until only one is left.

These episodes are included in the fourth season DVD set.

This season follows the theme of "forgiveness or regret" as episodes focus on a character coming to terms with the consequences of their actions from their past.
