Niners Unite...around Babylon 5! - The Lost Threads

Why? Is he the Geordi of Babylon 5?

 

In a way he is but he is much better written than Geordi.

 

Well, I just watched the first episode written by Peter David. That final line from Delenn was just creepy.

And, as if it weren't icky enough, it made me wonder where else she may have grown hair.

And then that led to wonderin' what it would have looked like before she went into the cocoon. Was there a funky blue arrow there, too? Is there still a ridge 'round it?

 

Well, ya know, I've had quite a bit of time on my hands lately...

...this is the sort of thing that happens when that happens.

 

I don't know about that. Most of the time, like Geordi, he sits there as Mr. Exposition, or Mr. Quickly Advance the plot, but he rarely gets developed as a character. His subplot in season three mostly worked, and I liked what he had to do in season four, but other that I think he was the character JMS had the weakest grasp on.

And yet, like Levar Burton, Richard Biggs manages to create a character that's extremely memorable despite being thinly developed through shear force of personality. I think, in that respect, they're very similar, though I think Franklin had slightly better development than Geordi in the end.

 

Nah...let's at LEAST wait until he is familiar with Lord Refa.

 

Alright, I have another random comment!

I do not like the recastin' of Na'Toth from the first season to the second. The two actresses may look like the same character, thanks to heavy make-up & costumin', but they don't sound alike at all.

I preferred the actress they had for the first season, and it seems like they aren't usin' Mary Kay Adams nearly as much in the second.

 

^^
After two or three episodes, they don't use Mary Kay Adams at all. Na'Toth just fades out of the picture.

Some resolution will be brought for the character WAY down the road, but I'll say no more.

 

Causal relationship.

 

Well, I'm watchin' 'The Coming of Shadows', and G'Kar mentionin' Na'Toth in his "farewell" message reminded me that I didn't like her anymore.

 

Yeah, that was a pretty good episode, though I gotta say, Sinclair looked older than he should, only bein' gone for a year & all.

I liked the age make-up done for Mollari & G'Kar, too.

 

Yes, read To Dream in the City of Sorrows if you want to know what Sinclair's been through (but only after seeing Grey 17 is Missing).

 

I hate to disagree, but I must. I wouldn't bother even visiting The Lurker's Guide at all - at least your first run through (I visit the site on average several times a week, so its not that I don't love the site).

It's just that your first run through you should enjoy the show for what it is, and it is amazing. Then as you watch it a second, third, or eleventy-seventh time through, Lurker's really adds something special.

Remember, it's the journey...
