    EpDis: Crusade: The Rules Of The Game

    Wow, busy discussion thread :p It was on OK episode ... I was pretty excited about seeing Babylon 5 again! That was unexpected and fun. Unexpected mainly because I JUST watched the episode that comes right before this one on the DVD, in which Gideon tells Lochley that he'll swing by Babylon 5...

    EpDis: Crusade: Ruling From The Tomb

    This one was a little weird ... I was pleased to finally see Lochley actually appear on the show, after seeing her in the opening credits for the past 6 or so episodes (I'm watching in DVD order). But, the story was a ... weird. It was also weirding me out how suddenly everyone was either...

    EpDis: Crusade: The Well Of Forever

    The episode where Eilerson apparently grows a conscience is "Patterns of the Soul", I just watched it. I'm going with the order on the DVD, so I have no idea if that was supposed to be before or after "The Well of Forever". Incidentally, the episode names on Crusade are WAY less clever than on...

    EpDis: Crusade: Patterns Of The Soul

    It's an OK episode ... it felt a bit chaotic to me at times, and I'm still not a fan of the outdoors, on-planet scenes, but it's definitely not terrible. I like the black projects stuff, shady stuff going on up high in Earth Force. Apparently not much has changed after Earth's civil war! I was...

    EpDis: The Corps Is Mother, The Corps Is Father

    I just watched that Crusade episode called "The Path of Sorrows" for the first time, and it gave me a hint of an answer to some of my telepath questions :) In a flashback scene, a Psi Corps telepath casually mentions that "most of the medical staff are P1s and P2s". I guess that means that yes...

    EpDis: Crusade: The Path Of Sorrows

    I've seen people mention this as their favorite, or one of their favorite Crusade episodes, but ... it's not really doing anything for me. I like the flashback back-story stuff, but it just seems so random, and Star Trek-ey. I said that about the last episode I watched as well, so I guess...

    JMS announced Babylon 5 film effort

    Haha :D I was having some trouble with the poll as well, but I often find polls impossible to answer, so I thought it was just me. Making a poll that allows for all possible answers and various nuances is hard to do! So, I can't vote, but I think it's an excellent topic for discussion. I have...

    EpDis: Crusade: The Well Of Forever

    Well, some files get deleted in this episodes. We get a view of Eilerson's screen as it happens, and it looks suspiciously like what Londo's computer screen looked like when Elric put a holodemon in his system. I'm assuming Galen is responsible. Eilersoon didn't look too happy about it, either...

    EpDis: Crusade: The Well Of Forever

    Oh, I have SO MANY questions about techno mages right now ... But I suspect that at least some of them are going to be answered in future episodes, so I'll refrain from asking them for the time being. My first thought upon seeing "Mr. Jones" was "Abel Horn???", but I'm assuming it's simply a...

    EpDis: Crusade: The Long Road

    I'm sure I'll better understand what is going on in each individual episode once I've seen all of them :) Sorry, I explained that poorly. I mean that from what we see of this society, and from the way they are described, I wouldn't expect them to have much of an industrial setup, and no way to...

    Broken DVD

    Well, it's been a week since I contacted WB's customer support, and I haven't heard back yet ...

    EpDis: The Legend of the Rangers

    Hey, I'd watch it ... :p I can see, from a storytelling point of view, why that particular storyline might have gotten axed, and why a creator might want to avoid multiple time travel plots ... Things might get overly confusing, it might seem repetitive, or maybe too "deus ex machina" -ey. On...

    EpDis: Crusade: The Long Road

    Wow, not much of a thread here ... But hey, at least I'm not the *first* person to post in it :) This episode felt very Star Trek-ey to me. You know, crew members dressing in silly disguises (where did they get those anyway, they don't have a replicator :p ) to mingle with the locals who live...

    EpDis: Crusade: War Zone

    I didn't really go out of my way to avoid Crusade, but I also didn't put extreme effort into acquiring the DVDs or finding some other way to watch it. One time, many years ago, I happened upon a Crusade episode on TV. I could immediately tell what it was, presumably because of the uniforms and...

    EpDis: The Wheel Of Fire

    The benefits of carrying a piece of Kosh seemed pretty obvious while that piece was there ("Jump! Now!"), but I'm very confused about the lasting effects. On the other hand, perhaps what we see in this episode is not a "skill" Sheridan has acquired,but rather the limits of Lyta's abilities. The...

    EpDis: Crusade: War Zone

    Hey, it's my first ever Crusade episode! It was alright ... I suppose I'll have more to say on this particular episode once I get through the rest of them and can better put it in context. The most exciting thing for me was learning that there are now telepaths in Earth Force. Not wearing...

    EpDis: Objects At Rest

    Ah yes, THAT minor detail :p The "Delenn's was the deciding vote on the war with Earth" reveal is an interesting example in the discussion on Lennier's character. It's a reveal that comes along fairly late in the story and shows a side of Delenn we're not at all familiar with. You'd think that...

    EpDis: The Wheel Of Fire

    Something I forgot. What's the deal with "You're not the only one who's been touched by the Vorlons!" ? I feel like it's thrown out there almost casually, never to be mentioned again, but it seems like something important. Is Sheridan immune to all telepathy? Is he immune to just Lyta? Does he...

    EpDis: Objects At Rest

    I'm kind of curious to see which ones you're thinking of, specifically. Regardless, I think I would agree. All the major characters are good people with some flaws (Ok, some of them take a while to get around to being essentially good people). I felt that most of their flaws were sort of...

    EpDis: The Legend of the Rangers

    Hi! I'm glad to have you along on this re-watch! :) I agree that this could have been a "Gathering" type thing. The kinks (weapons system mainly) could have gotten worked out and the story arc could have been great. But, alas, we'll never know because this is all we've got. About David, this...
