Re: It\'s official: Dumbledore role recast I think Gambon has the voice and the acting ability, and with the makeup I'm sure he'll be okay.

I voted for Neroon because of the list you gave us, his death was the ultimate sacrifice for his people. I thought Refa's death was the most dramatic because of the intercut with the gospel singer. However, I think Sheridan's death at Z'ha Dum was the one which moved me emotionally more than...

This is such a wide open question that I could name almost every actor or actress in the series. However, taken over the long haul, I would have to choose two of those who played aliens, and made them believable. Andreas Katsulas made the rather ridiculous G'Kar come alive and eventually turn...

On another forum someone just remarked that February 22 is the 10-year anniversary of the showing of The Gathering. I watched it that Saturday night and wasn't very impressed! Ten years later I now have it on DVD and watch it with pleasure. It took me most of the first year to be really hooked.

I don't know whether you would call it a spin-off but I would like to have seen the next five years when Sheridan and Delenn went to Minbar. That would include what happened to Lyta and G'kar, what happened to Lennier, the Telepath War and it would end with A Call to Arms. After that I would...

I haven't seen Nemesis, but as I have said elsewhere, these actors are twenty years older than they were when TNG first went on the air. At that time they were mainly in their early thirties, now they are in their fifties. They have slowed down and lost their zing. The romance of Riker and...

I only pay $22.50 per month for tv but of course don't have access to all the networks available in the US. The only Scifi cancellation that has bothered me at all is the fifth (and final) year of Farscape. I would certainly pay for a DVD to see the conclusion of that series, but I don't think...

I have no problem with the telepaths wanting to leave Earth to get away from the PsiCorps. Nor do I blame them for wanting a home of their own where they can live in peace. I just didn't like the way they set about getting it. I also agree Byron was almost as bad as Bestor in his treatment...

I have not seen the movie, even though I am a long-time Trek fan. I just have no interest any longer in the TNG crew. They have had their innings and obviously, they are all 20 years older than when the series began. Their age is beginning to show compared to the younger actors appearing in...

JMS said on several occasions, early and later, that he had the final episode "Sleeping in Light" in his mind before he began to write. That included the destruction of Babylon 5. If WWE had been the final episode it would have made no sense because half the story still had to be told -- that...

I didn't watch it, although I meant to. It sounded similar to Mysterious Ways, which I quite liked . However, whether Miracles succeeds may depend on the timeslot, since it will be opposite CSI: Miami.

Re: Opinions on my silly Lyta\'s fate answer........ I liked the first paragraph and then found it went on too long for my sense of humor. Nice try, though.

So far as I know JMS has always been disinclined to talk about "what might have happened". He says he always wrote in a trapdoor for everyone so that the story could carry on without them. There were a number of character changes apart from Sheridan, including Ivanova in year 5, so if you want...

I've had several people partially converted and then they had to go back to University. However I do have one 100% convert. I taped the entire 5 years and handed him the box of tapes and he watched the entire series in three days when he was bed-ridden with a bad back. (I actually taped the...

The original contract called for three books, probably based on sales. Boxleitner had the third book half written when it was cancelled by the publishers. He is now trying to shop the three books either as a movie or a miniseries (according to comments he made at one of the cons.) Judging by...

When Sheridan first appeared in season 2 he had a really strange haircut. As for the cover pic, it's not too bad but I wonder why they didn't include Franklin rather than Talia.

I used to wonder about that too, but after all if Lorien could bring him back from the dead, why not have a good haircut to go with it? The other thing that interested me is in the introduction to Season 4, Sheridan is shown with his helmet on, and I was always convinced that his hair was going...

Re: G\'Kar\'s name... I do a little writing for fun and I know from experience when I rough out a character, the first thing I do is give him/her a name. I might call him Jim in my mind, but later I will change the name to fit the character better, In the case of G'kar the original...

Since this is the year the DVD's are being released, The main focus is on selling as many as possible. Would people be as anxious to buy them if they could watch the series on tv and tape it? TPTB have only one goal and that is to make as much money as possible. If they think it is...

Now that the DVD's are coming out it is possible that WB is anxious to keep it off the air for a while too. DVD's are quite expensive for some people and if they can see the same thing on TV they aren't going to put money out to buy it.
