Ah, who needs a Rangers series (well, I do), we have all this marvelous participation by the best of the show here on the b5lr boards.

Gus, how do you stifle a vocabulary like that to play Tirk? Hah, I love the irony. Maybe Tirk get vocab. lessons during series and say smart things too. Tirk get smart too. Tirk get to command ship for episode or two.

Thanks for the punch of Bruce Lee, Warren. His spirit is exactly what is needed while we battle nerves, fears, and anticipation, while waiting for "the 2nd coming or something" of the B5 universe. (I should say third coming, Crusade is definately an honorable 2nd edition to the B5 universe) If anybody has JMS's ear, (better leave that joke out) make sure to mention that he should include some Bruce Lee philosophy in his future writings. I liked the quoting he's already done of Ghandi. JMS picks good stuff. He'll make it happen, Houdini is JMS's (other) middle name.

I know what you mean. I'm even a fan of Yogi-isms. It should have worked for me.

It just felt-- I dunno-- forced.

Also, I've heard that quote so many times in so many movies.

I much prefer channe's second quote as an example of good JMS dialogue.

also befitting this thread:

"Claim victory in your heart. The universe will follow."

Had that tacked on my cubicle wall for a time.

Hah, I meant to reply 'wise words' to Gus's post regarding some of the negativity and that the true fans will be the ones remaining. For some reason, while I meant to hit reply after I read his post, I read on the GKarsEye's post and hit the reply key there without thinking. Somehow I got sucked in and said 'wise words' to his instead. Not that 'I'm going to go make a sandwich' isn't deeply profound in its own right mind you, it just wasn't what I had intended. Whoops.

I don't know why people have to be so negative--things were much worse when we started the Crusade campaign. At least JMS isn't feuding with the network this time!

As long as it isnt a musical telegram. Because that would mean that she would sing, and then, err....yea.

Introducing the B5 Legend of the Rangers patented** Diet plan, guarenteeing no over weight singing women will derail the next B5 series of destiny!! The All Spoo Diet, spoo for breakfast, spoo for lunch, and ..... more SPOO for dinner. Absolutely guarenteed to reduce (if not completely destroy) the appetite of even the most hungry singing women.


**actually patent pending .... they just keep laughing at me when I try to patent it, go figure

To echo previous sentiments, the B5 universe has seen far worse days than this. Those of us who stuck through it are hardly concerned about the possibility of no series, but rather when the new series will get underway.

Gus, you rock. Ever think about running for office? (j/k)

GKE, sandwiches rock.

Warren, Bruce Lee still rocks.

Take heed instead, to fellow B-5 fandom bboard postings, post ala your comments.
I think you'll find them brimming with hope,
faith, determination and the stuff that makes dreams come alive.
smile.gif


Some points need considering. Case in point as mentioned by another B-5 bboard thread.
We will not know the results from the CNAD(cable national audience demographics) until March. All's we currently have is the Galaxy software Neilson ratings info that provides regional ratings.

Westtim's comments about the really good chance that negotiations are on there way, seems a reasonable one. Well met!!!
laugh.gif

That's what I like to see... To heck and be gone with this doom and gloom crap. That's the fabric of a loser. No offense Simon....
But as I've said so many times before, "Let's try to keep a little optimism here." Hmmmm... I think Sheridan said that once.

To Recoil,
the whole thing about the pessimism jinks thing, really gave me a good chuckle thanks.
laugh.gif


To Ben Reich,
You better believe faith manages...Oohrah!

To gkarfan,
Here, here with the whole "I don't know why there is so much negativity." We've all voiced are little quirks, now is the time to bound together to save a good thing. There is much to be liked here. This shows potential is through the roof!!!

To 2amaging,
A frightful mellow dramatic indeed. I think
Simon needs to go for a run to clear that rainy day depression stuper he's in...
shocked.gif

2amaging your comment about, "LR it's always been there," was so perfect, so appropriate, its unreal. Wow! Very cool! Clever indeed, I wish I thought of it.

To channe,
after Gus Lynch's [Tirk's]posting I noticed a dramatic change in your attitude. See...
If we just believe with all our hearts, stick with it and promote like crazy it will happen. As Gus said now is when we will find out who is the true B-5 fans. We are just getting rid of the none believers and the fair weather fans that's all. "Getting rid of excess fat."

To Londoshair,
You said,"B-5 has seen far worse than this."
It sure has.... [Threat of cancilation of Seasons end of season 3 & 4 anyone....]So we thus have no reason to turn tail and run now. We have all heard the term silence is golden. In this case the silence could mean good news not bad.........................
And

to the negativity.

*Gus Lynch it is a honor to have you on this fansite. Thank you for taking time out of your schedule to pop us a visit. You really cracked me up totally in the film, well done.
laugh.gif
Keep up the good work.

My word...... This whole fat lady thing is really holding it's thread. I must say you had me rolling out of my chair in tears on that one. Way to keep spirits up...
SALUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"You have always been here." Kosh, talking to Sheridan, from: All Alone In The Night.

Faith Manages...
 
I still keep hearing rumors about a series through my own venues.
cool.gif
Keep in mind that the folks at both Sci Fi and the B5 production offices know that the ratings were somewhat slighted by bad schedualing. These are business people, and yes, your letter-writing will indeed show them that there is money to be made and a viewership to be had.
If it's going to happen, it'll likely be known later this year, likely by May or June. And if so, it wouldn't begin shooting until at least September.
It would be a pity to lose this show due to, essentially, a stacked deck. I worked on the pilot and had a very good time. The cast was fantastic, and the work was of such caliber that one cannot help but be proud of it (I've yet to see it, though... it hasn't aired in Canada yet).
Keep faith, everyone.

By the way, don't put any trust in those dates I mentioned. Those are strictly guesses. There is presently no evidence to support them. In short, the numbers came out of my head.
smile.gif


------------------
 
Don't lose hope! Of course there will be a rangers series. Like they said "it ain't over till it's over" and it's not over yet. I truly believe we will have a series...sooner or later, but until then have faith! see ya,i hope you'll check back if we get a series.

for the one -

I was a little dissappointed after the movie aired because of the ratings, so I had a few weeks of sadness haunting my posts.

But I have since then regained my happy optimism. No fat ladies yet. Yeay!

As people my youngest sibling's age say, "Gus is, like, mad kewl."
