    Not another Crusade

    It's natural that a show about a military environment that you're going to have a captain. Crusade didn't really focus on Gideon any more than Babylon 5 focused on Sheridan - both are very much group oriented shows. You have a captain character, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the focus...

    Ratings

    B5 averages about a .7, with ratings usually going up as the arc heats up. (Right now it's hovering in .8-.9 terrority I believe.)Crusade has been ranging from .8-1.0, which is quite good for the SciFi channel's daily lineup. (And better than TNT did in the first run if you calculate the...

    Is it Coming here?

    It's ironic that Nine Networks Australia is (or at least was) one of the backers of Farscape, but won't even bother to show it most of the time... typical suit logic. ------------------ WombatControl http://www.flarn.com/wombatcontrol/ "Who let the spoo out? Sigh sigh sigh sigh sigh..."

    A thief and a magician?!

    This was when the technomages were fleeing to their hiding spot... although one wonders if it was mere coincidence that they happened to pass by right after the Shadow hybrid craft destroyed the Cerebrus. ------------------ WombatControl http://www.flarn.com/wombatcontrol/ "Who let the spoo...

    What about Sinclair

    "To Dream in the City of Sorrows" by Kathryn Drennan (JMS' wife!) is an *excellent* exploration of Sinclair's life after Babylon 5. I believe that the comic series touched on what happened to Sinclair just after Chrysalis... ------------------ WombatControl http://www.flarn.com/wombatcontrol/...

    A thief and a magician?!

    Dureena's a natural addition to the crew because she's A: travelled all around the galaxy - especially places where the ISA has not yet reached. B: She's a thief, which means that she specializes in getting into places that people aren't supposed to get into, and finally C: she can blend in and...

    Crusade Airing Order

    The SFC airing order is the way the story should have been played out - TNT messed up that order when they changed the uniforms from the original. The purpose of ignoring the uniform change is to show the way the character arcs should have been before TNT decided to butt in. Yes, this messes up...

    Legends & Crusade?

    Yeah, I'm being optimistic on that one... I'd imagine that the plan is to do another 5-year series, but there's no word on that yet. However, there would be an overlap with Crusade should the potential series go on for more than two years. ------------------ WombatControl...

    Lord of the Rings connections

    There are literally tons of LotR references in B5... G'Kar in Revelations (Season 2) - "Expect me when you see me." - also spoken by Gandalf in the first book. Elric in The Geometry of Shadows (also Season 2) - "Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger."...

    How Will B5 LOTR Avoid being cancelled?

    Simple, the problems with TNT were due to a group of idiots in Atlanta who had no conception of what SF TV is. JMS wanted something in the vein of B5, TNT wanted Wrestlemania meets Baywatch in space. On the other hand, the people at SFC know SF. Bonnie Hammer is not only a fan of the genre, but...
