    EpDis: Soul Mates

    Plus, in an earlier episode he remarked that his wives were what kept him at his post, 50 light years (IIRC) from them! Timov will surely continue that role. She understands her duties in that kind of marriage, she no doubt will run a tight ship with the House of Mollari at home and look out...

    EpDis: Soul Mates

    And she was also more honest. She made no move to suck up to Londo upon knowing she was in a contest for continued status as his wife, and the continued title and privileges that came with that. He will always know where he stands with someone so unafraid to speak her mind, and since marriage...

    EpDis: Eyes

    I love how the guy starts hitting on Ivanova in the bar, calling her "cute", and then she repeats "cute?", and... cut to new scene. Made me laugh the first time I saw it, because you just know that a whole lot of whoopass, and probably some censored remarks, immediately followed that (which we...

    So "eleventy" is their word for "eleven" (their "10" in base 11)? I took it to be (11)0 (eighty 80, ninety 90, tenty (10)0, eleventy (11)0) in whatever base they used. And that the direct powers of the base number would be their "hundred", "thousand", etc. (i.e they'd have special words for...

    Ooh, ooh, something else I just remembered :) .... In the episode where Londo is showing Lennier the various places of vice on Babylon 5, Lennier talks about his past studies, and says at one point "in my eleventy-seventh month of studies" or something like that (boring Londo to death as he...

    One other thought that just occured to me though: we know (or, think we know) that Valen had children among the Minbari, which is why the triluminary supposedly shines for his descendants. It seems that this device detects human DNA in general, since other humans brought aboard at the Battle of...

    Or how about Valen finding his way back to Earth (after retransforming) and somehow sneaking back onto the planet (a few people might have seen something strange in the sky--that kind of thing happens--but nothing came of it), and becoming his own ancestor like ol' Lazarus Long? Not sure what...

    This actually makes a lot of sense, too. Yeah, if they were using keepers on Earth (as they had one on that one Mars Resistance guy), it makes sense they'd have one on Clark as they did Londo, eventually anyway. But Clark was still a lot more of a powerhungry sonofabitch than Londo, it...

    Earthers?

    Well, people from Vermont are called "Vermonters", from Michigan "Michigansers", etc. Not sure if there's a hard and fast rule as to what places get the "er" (as versus "ese", "i", "ian", etc.) suffix, though, just that some suffix or other ends up "sticking" as a reference for people from a...

    EpDis: Revelations

    The first time we see Clark, aside from his swearing-in on the ISN newscast (that classic chilling scene in "Chrysalis" when Kosh utters "and so it begins")--the first time we see him actually interacting with one of our characters (Sheridan). And boy does that give one the creeps, especially on...

    Hi! I've been lurking here for a couple months, and after having just watched the entire series for the first time over the last few months (and now rewatching it to catch stuff I might have missed earlier, with the perspective of knowing what's to come), I must say that I totally misjudged the...
