Spoilers for seasons 3 and 4 below. It's amazingly easy to forget details and whole plotlines. I sort of feel like I know everything that happens on Babylon 5. At least, the stuff we actually see happening on the show and in the movies, I'm not nearly as up to speed on all the stuff that...

Some season 4 spoilers below. You're correct about her first vote being the deciding one on whether or not to go to war with the Humans. As far as we can see, anyway. There might have been a more mundane vote that happened off-screen. But Delenn was definitely already on the council when Dukhat...

They do get maybe possibly married in "The Parliament of Dreams", I don't know about any other maybe possibly marriages :p I know that them ending up together was the original plan, but I don't know how much of that is left in episodes, or the exact order in which the episodes were recorded...

Could be an antique ;) Yea, I can see that ... I guess I can't really say why I feel like the civilian communications seem to work just fine, because I can't think of any examples of it being used. Civilian TV seems to work just fine, though. Good point, that. That's all true. Women in...

I DO find that interesting. Is that one of the books that's considered canon? I can never remember what they are. I've only read "To Dream in the City of Sorrows".

I like Mind War for many of the same reasons mentioned by Vacantlook in the very first comment. "Yes" to all of that, except maybe that I didn't have a problem with Jason Ironheart's possibly somewhat melodramatic gestures. I like the character a lot, the one thing I found a little off about...

Totally never noticed that :o Getting the thread somewhat off topic here, but I thought of another thing I forgot to add to that "list". Day of the Dead!

There are some MINOR spoilers for later seasons of Babylon 5 below. I was just thinking the same thing. Those guys are really great. This made me laugh out loud :D I like the Parliament of Dreams. It's among my favorite early season 1 episodes, for sure. I think it's mostly the aesthetics...

Overall, I do feel like the first season feels a bit like a setup for the "good stuff" that comes later. I think it's when I remember that feeling and go watch some season 1, it can still really surprise me. I definitely like season 1 better than season 5, because it just feels more connected to...

Ooh, good suggestion. I will give that a try, thanks!

Interesting, I like MoTFL (I too am "in touch with the scene"! :p) a lot better than The Gathering. I like The Gathering for what it is, but with everything in there that got changed it feels more "setup-ey" than anything else. MoTFL feels solidly like Babylon 5 to me. I've commented elsewhere...

I don't know if I'd go that far. They had to stick that information in there somewhere ... I'm sure I couldn't have come up with a better way to do it, either. Not without making that bit of dialog longer ("So, I heard about the previous stations being blown up and that last one disappearing...

I forgot all about this, but it's been a few months now, and they never did get back to me :-|

Goodness, it's an invasion. I'm kind of wondering how these are getting past the defenses when thousands of other spambots aren't. But, don't explain it to me ... wouldn't want to give anyone any ... ideas :p Somewhat vaguely, tangentially related to the original topic: Back in the 90s I had a...

I'm glad people are posting to this thread because now I can see what that weird spam post was all about. Before the edit it seemed like a totally innocuous thread reply. I mean, it was obviously spam, resurrecting a 13-year old thread like that, but it wasn't selling anything, so I couldn't...

Awesome, thanks! :D Makes a lot more sense than ocean maps :p

Well, as it happens, I would ... because there's a good chance that would be at least somewhat relevant to the job :p I'll give you that that's not going to be true for the vast majority of jobs, but I don't think the comparison is fair. New York has been called that for rather a long time, and...

There are some really good points here ... Especially the one about Lyta not knowing why there's a 5 in Babylon 5. I tend to think of Babylon 5 (and the Babylon Project) as this enormously important thing, because of course that's where the show is set, and that's the only perspective we ever...

Compared to the rest of B5, this episode isn't great. But, it does still have a lot going for it! I agree with Galahad, Alioth, and others above that there's a lot of details here giving us clues about what is going on back on Earth, and some themes that will become important later on are first...

There are some minor spoilers for later B5 seasons in the list below, but not anything particularly important. The story in this episode is fairly average, I thought, and there's rather a lot of cheese in this, but I really like what it shows us about Londo and Ivanova. I also quite like the...
