Mark Oshiro watches Babylon 5 - Page 2

Heh heh! Quoting Oshiro's tweet today regarding his watching "And The Sky Full Of Stars": "I've reached the first truly mind-bending and deeply unfair episode of BABYLON 5."

And the first line of the review:: "In the eighth episode of the first season of Babylon 5, WHAT THE FUCK!"

Bwahahaha. He gets it.

As much as I love him reacting to these early episodes, I want to see him when we get to the first episode of Season 2 when he realises that these mysteries DO get explained. The show isn't unfair, they don't introduce mysteries and leave them unsolved.

I was about to post the exact same two quotes.

I'm impressed that he got the Vorlons so quickly. But I suspect that he'll forget it before Season 4 and start thinking of the Vorlons in the Good vs Evil terms that they wanted us to think of them in.

Well this fun. Oshiro has for a second time begun a review introduction, this time for "Believers," with "In the tenth episode of the first season of Babylon 5, WHAT THE FUCK." (The previous "WHAT THE FUCK" introduction was earlier this week with "And the Sky Full of Stars." If B5 is throwing him for a loop this early, then things are bound to get good.

The man raises a good point about Lianna Kemmer. She is indeed one-note in her pursuit of Garibaldi. Oshiro's idea that an acknowledgment that Santiago is always under threat, and that therefore Kemmer's paranoia is totally justified, makes a lot of sense and is a little bit of a missed trick.

Seems like Oshiro really loved "By Any Means Necessary".

Holy shit, this was spectacular.

Third what-the-fuck, now for "Signs and Portents".

Quote:

In the thirteenth episode of the first season of Babylon 5, WHAT THE FUCK.

What just happened? What is this show gonna do to me? THIS IS YOUR FAULT.
