Dylan - Excellent news on that job in Shanghai! I'm sure I speak for many of us here when I say: let us know how it went when you come back! Or even, see if you can find a web connection and a few minutes while you're out there to send us an e-message! See - we've not even seen your work on...

Re: Crusades \"Fifth\" Season-What Would\'ve Happened? Trying to think back to the way B5 was planned out, let's have a look at how Crusade could have evolved: Season One - Hunt for the Cure. Establish setting, characters, Apocalypse Box, hunt for cure, EarthGov & ShadowTech. Season Two -...

Re: Any chance we\'ll get to see the ship soon? Those of you following the build-up to the launch of Enterprise will know that they've been holding off on revealing too much of the ship. Okay, they've shown the main sets, but for externals there's only been one or maybe two shots released, and...

Thanks for the good news on the movie, Dean! Now we just have to wait to see it, when we can get just as enthusiastic about its undoubted excellence! Couple of things on British TV: The BBC is funded from the TV licence fee, from sales of its productions and also from money raised by its BBC...

In both A Call to Arms and Crusade there are people on the Excalibur's bridge wearing aviator-style rimless glasses. In one episode (can't remember what it was called, I'm afraid) it was the two crewmen at the Sensor station. This made me think that the specs are actually some sort of heads-up...

One thing that I immediately noticed about the picture is the guy to David's left (Bridges?) has his arm around Sarah Cantrell - I wonder what sort of relationship this indicates? Tirk (the Drazi ) looks HUGE, and Firell's bone is a lot bigger than Dulann's. Was this to accomodate Enid-Raye...

I wonder if they mean actual full-cast video episodes sent over the internet, or some other use of internet technology, such as animation, sound only (like JMS' project of internet radio dramas for SciFi), or web-delivered comic strips, like on the Matrix website? I'd be more likely to access...

Re: \"TWCBN\" Named and \"B5:LR\" Review See my post to the "More on Jeremiah" thread for my notes on the 70s TV series Survivors about people trying to rebuild civilisation after a deadly plague destroys most of the world's population. ------------------

Re: More on \"Jeremiah\" Talking about similar premises, in the early 70s the BBC (I think) made a series called Survivors, about a plague which whipes out the vast majority of the world's population. It's about the initial problems of surviving, then of building a community and restarting...

What I find most distressing about authors having to stay away from places where they might, possibly see a plot idea which they might, possibly be going to use anyway and so they might, possibly be subjected to a law suit is that it stifles the flow of ideas. While in no way putting down any...

Thanks to Mr de Martino for his bit on TV history - I really love all that trivia Must be why I studied the stuff, huh? And glad that there are others even more unlucky than Messers Cole and Close ------------------

I'm not sure that Ivanova was even a P1, just that she had a trace of the talent, probably working onlyl on an instinctual level, which she would perceive as intuition or something similar. A similar level of ability would definitely help to explain Max's linguistic ability, but not all of it...

I think that there's a lot of dramatic license in Max's translation ability, or possibly a deep dark secret that would come out later! (I notice that the thread below this one raises the possibility that Max is telepathic, which would certainly help. I'll read that thread once I'vce posted...

Much as I like Gary Cole, he doesn't seem to have much luck with series, does he? Okay, Midnight Caller lasted, what, three series? But since then there's been American Gothic (one season) and Crusade (half a season). Hopefully someone can point out to me that his record is rather better! I...

Here's my interpretation, which is a little more on the mystical than the practical side. "The One" is as defined by Zathras, but it has taken on a wider meaning throughout Minbari history and so into Ranger ritual. Sinclair became Valen a thousand years in the past: he is The One Who Saved...
