    EpDis: A Tragedy Of Telepaths

    Joining those who appreciated the usage of Lochley logs. I've often thought that B5 has many very elegant ways to open/close the episodes. This is one of those. I don't know how this storyline is supposed to go on but basically *anything* would be amazing with Ivanova. Though Lochley wasn't bad...

    EpDis: In The Kingdom Of The Blind

    ^Oh, I had forgotten there were those cases... Thanks :)

    EpDis: In The Kingdom Of The Blind

    The dvd set I have shows these episodes in this order: Secrets of the Soul, Day of the Dead, In the Kingdom of the Blind. I wonder why? Byron comments in the beginning of this episodes, that he learned "yesterday" from Lyta the origin of teeps. So basically 'day of the dead' would have to...

    EpDis: Day Of The Dead

    This is the first episode since I registered and started commenting here that I have a hard time thinking anything at all to say. It was not bad, nor boring. Rebo and Zooty didn't annoy me too much (only a little... based on what we've learned from their humour, I think I can say with absolute...

    EpDis: Secrets Of The Soul

    Franklin: oh, I think he *could* very well be just such a tosspot. It's not the first time he's been, as you said, holier-than-thou, and an annoying little know-it-all. Still, even for him, this was extreme. You'd think he'd learned some humbleness during B5 years. Then again: I've never been a...

    EpDis: Strange Relations

    Before Byron and his cohorts, I didn't like telepaths because of the prison that was the psi-corps. Thanks to Byron, I feel all warm and fuzzy towards Bester and his creepy bloodhounds! At least They. Are. Not. Bloody. Annoying!!! They are just straightforward and stifling:p Byron's gang are (oh...

    EpDis: Learning Curve

    I felt slightly nauseated by the applause. Really, people?? Just because a speech is delivered in a authoritarian manner, doesn't mean you have to applaud to it, even if it is from your captain. I find it increasingly difficult to like Lochley - and I've already watched the next episode where...

    EpDis: The Paragon Of Animals

    Totally agree.

    EpDis: A View From The Gallery

    I did not expect this episode to inspire 9 pages of comments:lol: Basically, I think the episode had a really nice premise. I enjoyed watching (what passes as) a normal day on B5 through the eyes of "the worker caste". Of course they had to meet Sheridan & others - I think it was the whole...

    EpDis: The Paragon Of Animals

    Yes. But for me, the "mundanes are inferior and teeps are so much better" is very high on my "5 most annoying things about Byron" list. Arrogance, superiority, womanizing, condescension, general creepiness and overall unappealingness (if that's even a word...). He's probably supposed to be this...

    EpDis: The Very Long Night Of Londo Mollari

    ^I agree with you about the role of Delenn here. She knew about Lennier's feelings and might have guessed how difficult the whole situation was for him. Did she have such absolute trust & faith in the stern mental abilities of someone from the Religious caste that she thought that those powers...

    EpDis: The Very Long Night Of Londo Mollari

    No, that's not what I'm talking about. I completely agree that Lennier had a hefty dose of the adventurer in him. If he had given as the reason for his leaving only a) that it pains him to watch Delenn and Sheridan together (which he knew or probably guessed that Delenn already knew), and b)...

    EpDis: The Very Long Night Of Londo Mollari

    A huge YES to this. I read his imdb information and apparently he was mainly a stage actor which might explain why there's no bigger movie roles. On the other hand: no it doesn't. How is it even possible that "no one" saw his work in B5 and absolutely kidnapped the man for a bunch of large movie...

    EpDis: No Compromises

    I didn't look forward to start watching season 5. I remember not liking Lochley, and after Shadows and Earth war, all else sort of feels bland. However, this first episode wasn't horrible. G'Kar is excellent as always, wrote a moving speech, and then there's the giggleworthy "you want to be a...

    EpDis: The Deconstruction Of Falling Stars

    While I recognize that this episode has its merits - the whole concept is quite good - there was too much for me NOT to like. Most often, I simply don't like any "20 years later" kind of epilogues. Hated the 19-years-later epilogue in Harry Potter. Either tell the whole story, or don't. Not...

    EpDis: Rising Star

    -Is she stable? -After a fashion... Oh, Ivanova :( CC did that scene well. Tears, had to fetch a handkerchief. And on to other emotions: Sheridan after the scene where Luchenko found out the identity of the other president.... I giggled. Sheridan totally earned the right to be a bit smug. Oh...

    EpDis: Endgame

    Ever since I started rewatching B5, I've waited for and dreaded this episode. Marcus dies, for Ivanova. When I saw this the first time, there was a lot crying involved, and I was not able to watch another episode for a few days as I was so shook up. It wasn't an easy scene this time, either...

    EpDis: Between The Darkness And The Light

    Nothing much to add, you have already said pretty much everything. So I repeat: a very, very good episode. Such a sad episode. Watching Ivanova at the end made my eyes well up (come on, it's the third watching, I should know better... on the other hand, I've seen Boromir die or Gondor's...

    EpDis: Intersections In Real Time

    What a nightmare this episode is. Gives me the creeps. Closed room. Loop. Interrogator's arguments which actually, in a weird, awful, demonic way, make sense. Interrogator being outwardly such a deceptively nondescript, bland, secretarial, businesslike man. Always "telling the truth". I bet he...

    Worst Acting Performance

    That was very interesting. Doesn't make me like his way of acting, though. However, it makes me really respect his thorough professionalism and dedication. He did have a weird way with humour which I occasionally liked. Very deadpan and out-of-the-blue. To compare with Sheridan (who I adore)...
