There was that thing from last year when JMS was asking round for old CGI files. Triple F alluded to an animated project... But fantastic news that it's done!

I wouldn't call it the worst ever, but I agree that it wasn't the best. To an extent I think that can be understood given how TNT messed around with it, it's a miracle they were able to produce a coherent show at all. But personally I did find some of the stories lacked impact, and I wasn't sold...

I didn't receive an email either, and I did receive the previous one originally saying they wouldn't continue the What the Hell Happened books, so I wouldn't have seen this if you hadn't posted, so thanks! Hmm, going to have to dig my books out of storage and see how many of those Crusade books...

Thanks for the recommendation, I've just subscribed to their channel! Looking forward to hearing their thoughts when they get to some of the really big arc episodes - they're going to be blown away!

It was the Wolf 359 convention in Blackpool in the summer of 97. I wasn't one of the fans helping look through the rubbish for the notes – I had no idea that it had even happened, nor about any of the other drama that took place behind the scenes, until after the fact. Pretty much the entire...

Suspected thrown out by a cleaner, I think. I was at that convention, and it was a pretty crazy one (the same one just after renewal where Claudia decided not to sign on for season 5, as if JMS didn't have enough to deal with) and there were fans helping him sift through the trash bags looking...

Re: Jumped vs Pushed If I could 'like' posts on here, I'd 100% 'like' this one! Season 5 with Ivanova would have been a completely different beast. Throwing no shade at Tracy Scoggins/Lochley, she was good, but she wasn't Ivanova.

I always found it surprising that at this stage in the show there was a Ranger on Mars helping the Mars resistance, since their remit was to watch what the Shadows were doing, not getting involved in local politics. Unless the Rangers knew about the Shadows' connection to Clark and just didn't...

I haven't heard that in regard to B5 before, but I've read that a lot of shows do film in Canada because it's less expensive (or maybe there are tax breaks? Either way, it's more cost efficient for some productions). Off the top of my head I think the first seasons of The X-Files were filmed in...

I wouldn't say Picard season 2 is a slow burn. It starts off really fast-moving, but there's just not enough plot to fill 10 episodes, so they drag it out in the middle – in my opinion, anyway. I will have to give The Orville another go (not sure what channel it is shown on in the UK). Every...

I was about to spring to the defence of the new Star Trek shows, personally I wouldn't say they were failing, but actually, yeah, they are often just 'okay'. They are no where near as bad as some people make out, but they do have their problems, though I'm finding there are still things worth...

I'm not quite sure what the OP is saying – that if there'd be a popular space science fiction show in the early 2010s then we'd have sent astronauts to Mars by now? I don't quite see the connection – no matter how popular a TV show is, it's not going to make politicians change their minds and...

I do wonder whether including actors from the original show would become a bit gimmicky. We'd be watching to see Boxleitner or Christian, and putting emphasis on that rather than the story or the character. So I could see an argument against doing that. I suppose it depends on how it's done...

We British have emotions too! lol Seriously, I know what you mean about over-the-top reactions, but to me they're only over-the-top if they're not sincere, and I think medusa's are genuine and heartfelt. I believe the full-length episode reaction videos are on her Patreon page. The ones on...

It's a north-east accent. I might be wrong but her accent doesn't quite sound strong enough to be from Newcastle, but maybe Durham or Hartlepool or somewhere around there.

For the past few months I've been watching Medusa Cascade's B5 reaction videos. I don't usually watch reaction vids, but Medusa Cascade's are really good – you can see her become increasingly emotionally involved in the show as she gets deeper into it, and to see the joy of someone discovering...

Weird, I also thought that the announcement statement alluded to a sleeping race! Just shows our unconscious bias towards what we expect to happen based on the original show. That's going to be the new show's hardest challenge, I think, getting past the expectations of fans of the original show...

I think the sets might be very different - think more like the aesthetics of The Expanse – and I don't mind too much about the costumes either way, but I don't want the ships to change too much. When I see a Minbari ship, or a Narn ship, or a Vorlon ship, I want to be able to recognise it as...

They might be doing things like concept designs for sets, ships, costumes - all on paper, for now, but so it's ready for when and if it does go into production. Remember JMS asked social media for help tracking down CGI models for the ships, so I presume there was someone at an FX house...

I thought the season 2 opener was excellent. Felt like TNG-era Star Trek, which the first season didn't. Loved Picard's response to seeing Q ("No, no, no. Q! Goddamn you, Q!"), was great to see all the old ship designs (Akira, Sovereign, Excelsior, probably some others I didn't notice) and new...
