If we could hold off for a short while longer... I've got someone else who's maybe gonna buy the season 1 box and then join us.

A couple of plot points are expanded a bit, some scenes originally cut out were included, and as I mentioned earlier there's a significant "spoiler" in a particular scene...but if you've never seen the series or heard anything about it you wouldn't know what the spoiler was.
I'd better leave it at that.
^^^ Heh! 
I know 
... just felt the B5 thing was gaining momentum and suddenly am jumping in to hold it up again! But I saw that season 1 set in town the other day ... and have Christmas money ... gorrammit, it's MINE!
Can't wait to watch it and come back here to discuss it with y'all!

I'm just glad we've managed to entangle someone else in the goodness that is B5.
I WILL NOT let them start without you!

Okay...I will start the thread sometime tomorrow, guys.
But in the meantime, why don't we plan on watching the first episode before the weekend. That way, it will give the people who want to watch The Gathering time to do that also. Then after the weekend, we will plan on two episodes a week, unless folks get into it and want to go faster.

^ Yay!!!! 
So now that the B5 discussion is going to another thread, for anyone who saw the return of BSG last week, what did you think. I don't visit the BSG forum in favor to not be spoiled, but it was a great episode. It made the time go real fast and with a quarter left to go for it, It felt like the show just started. That Admiral Cain is a total bitch and I do hope <span class="spoiler"><font class="small">Spoiler:</font><hr /><span>Adama goes through with the plan </span><hr /></span>. I can't wait to see how it ends.
I thought it was great and I would like to say a big thank you. Everyone talking favorably about BSG in the last Bar thread was one of the reasons I started watching. Now I can't get enough of it. :thumbsup:
Well I've got some shitty news.
As some of you know, I met my g/f online. That was about six years ago and we've been dating for over five years.
The problem is, that she's from Canada and I'm from Europe. Over the last five year we went from having an actual long distance relationship where we saw eachother twice a year.
Then she moved to my place for a year, which didn't work for her. After that I moved to Canada for two years, where I got a degree. I realized that I couldn't stay in Canada, I just missed home too much. So we moved back here in july 2005.
anyway... the problem is, that she doesn't speak the language so she couldn't get a job here. she also missed her friends. so last sunday she told me she's leaving, and moving to England to stay with a couple of friends.
So honestly, I'm having the worst week of my life right now. That might sound overly melodramatic, but it's true. Basically I'm a wreck and just going for an hour without crying is a bitch. On top of that, I don't have much to do at work, which would at least keep me occupied.
anyway... so I've got no idea what I'm gonna do. This is the girl I thought I was gonna marry and spend my life with, and now she's leaving.
My current plan is to see how it goes without her for a while. And if after a while I still can't deal with her being gone, I might just move to England. I really do not want to (I've got nothing against England, but it's just not my home), but I might just have to. Cos I'm not sure I can deal with loosing her.
I hope you guys don't mind me posting this in here. I just really needed to tell this to someone. I'm not a very social person (unlike my g/f who is extremely social) so I don't really have anyone else to talk to. I'd talk to my folks, but they're on vacation right now.
anyway... she's supposed to leave on saturday morning, as long as we can get her a plane ticket for then.
That's it ... again, I really hope you guys don't mind me posting this in here.
EDIT: just for the record, in case I wasn't clear. Yes, she still loves me and she still wants to be with me. She just can't be with me here.

BigFoot, I am sooooooo sorry! As someone who has been through a fair bit of pain recently, I obviously don't know exactly how you feel...but it's certainly close. 
And it's perfectly fine to talk about it here. The people who post in this thread have gotten to be pretty good friends, I think...and what else are friends for, you know?
I'll be on MSN during the day today and tomorrow as well, if you want to talk. In the meantime, huge hugs from me!
As for BSG, I'll post about that tonight guys...I gotta go to work right now, but I wanted to get this in before I left.

BigFoot, that is such horrible news. I really feel for you.
I know there's not much I can say, but I'm here if you want to talk. I'm also regularly on MSN (andrew_hartup@msn.com)

^ Joining in the B5 watch and discuss thing should help too.
Bigfoot,
I'm so sorry to hear that. I don't know what else to say other than echo what others have said. Do things (like watch TV or spend time with the family) that might help take the mind off this situation. I hope things work out in the end.
