Ack. I think the first thing you need to do is set parameters. Are we talkig about the 5 (6 if you count the pilot episode) years elapsed 2257-2262? Are you including time up to Sleeping in Light? To do so would be tough, since there's so much we don't know. Mr. Sebastian takes us back to the...

I think it comes down to money and power. SciFi has other original programming options which are more profitable to them on an immediate and/or long term basis than any deal they can reach with Warner Brothers on a B5 project. For Instance: SciFi: Hey, the B5 reruns and movies have done...

The Liandra was actually much bigger than I thought it would be -- cargo bays and all... Being "old" isn't that big a deal, as the innards can certainly be upgraded, and the hull can be repaired. Besides, having a "clunker" helps give the crew that "rebel / rogue" characterization. Perhaps...

It's possible the Hand wants the Liandra (and its cargo hold of of diplomats to survive) to spread fear and terror, etc. If each of those diplomats were to return home and say "This new race showed up and blew up the newest, fastest Ranger ship; and we only escaped through their mercy," it...

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, arial">quote:</font><HR> Additionally, Australia has laws / regulations about domestic content in a network's overall schedule. This gave the Aussie contingent an additional motivation to lobby for the production to be based there. The US, and to my...

As mentioned above, we have loads of Byron threads on this site; and with a little work, they're not that hard to find. Nevertheless, it seems we now have another. So, what the heck... I thought Byron was a rather interesting character. I just couldn't stand the singing...

Kevin Vacit? Anyone know? ------------------ "What's up, Drakh?" Michael Garibaldi

Welcome to the fun house! I hope you enjoy your time here. I'm confident all of us loved your scene with Tirk! BTW, how much time in the makeup chair does it take to become Drazi? ------------------ "What's up, Drakh?" Michael Garibaldi

Psi Corps Question: Who\'s in Charge? We may have discussed this a while back, but I didn't quite find anything. Here goes: I haven't read all the short stories, Dell novels, comic books, etc. But -- We know from the Psi Corps trilogy that <table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font...

Well, if this next step in this campaign is to write letters, who has written? Who will write? And to whom will you write? Sorta sounds like Galen, doesn't it... ------------------ "What's up, Drakh?" Michael Garibaldi

I suppose I should also add that it is not only a matter of how many people are available to view commercials inserted into a show, but also the age groups, etc. of those people. There are more than several stories throughout the history of U.S. television where popular programs were...

No, I don't think they would, for several reasons. First, you have to remember the whole concept of American commercial television is to make money -- and that money comes from American advertisers. Ratings are important not for their own sake, but rather of a measure of how many people are...

Shaman, You may have missed to posts on this site regarding the B5LR trailer showing in selected markets. SciFi only paid to show the trailer in certain areas, not the entire country. ------------------ "What's up, Drakh?" Michael Garibaldi

Well, I watched all three showings on the SciFi channel last weekend, trying to do my part for the cause. I'm not sure SciFi could have anticipated the NFL moving playoff games to a primetime slot on Saturday. Even once they knew, it was probably too late to pull back all their promotional...

Actually, the Centauri trilogy does mention Capt. Lochley at least a couple of times: <table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black> Once when she steps in after Mariel slaps a Drazi who insulted Vir; again when...

We've seen Techno-Mages in B5, A Call to Arms, Crusade, and we've even had them appear in the Centauri trilogy and a (of course) the Techno-Mage trilogy. Did anyone remember seeing or reading about any Minbari or Narn Techno-Mages? No big deal, just wondering.... ------------------...

I'm certain that JMS et al can come up with all sorts of new, original stories for the B5LR gang. But, who among us didn't enjoy seeing G'Kar again? One of the things that would excite me about B5LR is the chance to see again favorite characters from other shows. Who would you like to see...

Re: What\'s wrong with \"the Gathering\"? It's been a long time since I've seen the original version of The Gathering. However, I remember thinking it was worthwhile. After seeing the latest version, with a new score, editing, etc., I still think it's worthwhile. One thing that I remember...
