If Bester had man boobs he could be my twin
Lyta shocked Bester right enough,he was supposed to be more powerful than her and found out she far oustripped him.
Yeah Garibaldi has his moody moments,they all do on this show.
A few good twists and turns yet in this series.

Re: Newbie just starting S3 - Non-Spoilers ONLY!
I forgot to mention the ending of "Epiphanies." What a creepy, evil creature that is growing on the regent's neck! I imagine I'll find out what and why that is at some point.
Watched "Illusion of Truth" last night. How frightening is that? Talk about the power of the Fourth Estate! I found it a particularly disturbing story about what the media can do to truth. I imagine they do that, too.
Then, there's Garibaldi's betrayal...all part of the brainwashing, I'm sure. How terrible!

Indeed you will, but don't forget that you've seen one before: War Without End in season 3, when Sheridan visits his future briefly after becoming 'unstuck in time' on B4. A certain Centauri Emperor who's taken Sheridan and Delenn captive explains his out of character behaviour by pointing out that 'we all have our keepers' as he gestures to one on his shoulder, and explains that if he drinks just enough, he can put it to sleep and be himself again, for a little while.

I almost forgot to mention how much I also enjoyed the first part of this story...about Zack. He has become an absolutely wonderful character and Jeff Conaway plays him beautifully. If I have any complaint at all about this episode, it's that one gets so wrapped up in what is happening with Delenn that it is easy to miss the great initial segment about Zack.

I just got the series on DVD recently and have been watching it from beginning to end. I'm ready to start season 2 tonight.
But unlike ilikemike, I have seen the series more times than I can count, so I don't have any fun newbie comments to add.

Re: Newbie just starting S3 - Non-Spoilers ONLY!
Just saw 'Racing Mars.' Although I'm really ticked at Garibaldi, I feel that he's under an influence and has no idea what he's doing. That's my story and I'm sticking with it.
I laughed so hard in the Mars part...imagine...Franklin and Marcus as a 'young married couple.' Some real good lines there. Also, 'custody of the children' and the Honeymoon Suite. That was hysterical.
What can I say about 'Woo-hoo?' ROTFLOL
Why does JMS have this "thing" about parasites on people? Yucky!!!!

Writers are always told, "Write about what you know." JMS writes for television, which means he deals with studios, production companies, agents, lawyers, managers and networks. In short, he knows a thing or two about parasites , so it is only natural that he writes about them.

I can clearly see the frustrated inspiration for the line:
"You know that . . . you know that you are smaller than I thought you were?
You are smaller. There are more of you. There are more of you!"

That's wonderful, Joe!!!! He would do that, too, wouldn't he?

I have let this slide, haven't I? Time to get back to viewing now that Christmastime is past. I'll bet you all thought you lost me.
I still can't get the last couple episodes I saw out of my mind. I can still hear Marcus singing "Pirates of Penzance" ad nauseum. It's one of my favorites.
