Re: Do You Like Byron?

I believe the Markab homeworld was recently vacated..

Besides, we saw at least two earthlike planets in Crusade with tiny human colonies on them.

Re: Do You Like Byron?

I liked Byron, both the actor and the dialogue.

What bothered me more about those early S5 episodes was that many of the regular cast started acting like they'd been lobotomised. Byron was a...

Re: The Joker won't be back for the third new batman movie
