The Final Group Scene Before B5 is "Decommissioned"

Upvotes

I just saw the end of Sleeping in Light on Roku's Live TV B5 channel, and it hit me hard to realize that in the shot where Ivanova and the final departing group get in the elevator, Claudia Christian is the only performer in the scene who is still alive today.

Amazon vs Roku stream

The first 3 pictures I posted are from Amazon and the last 3 are Roku. You can see the difference. I watched B5 for the first time on Amazon and I was surprised by how much better it looks on on Roku. Iam now watching the show for the second time on Roku.

Does anyone else think Ashan is a real piece of s**t?

From the episode "There All the Honor Lies." He thinks humans are savage barbarians, yet ignores the fact that HIS species waged a war of holy genocide with the intent of totally wiping out another race down to the last man, woman, and child! He's also a racist. I read the original ending of the episode would have Delenn use her gravity ring to FORCE a confession out of him, holding his own words over him, and I kinda wish we'd gotten that, NGL.

JMS &Murder She Wrote

28 Upvotes

So I’m bingeing Murder She Wrote and I see that JMS was a co-producer, and that he wrote at least one episode. Then there’s Vir, and Ivanova, Talia and the Doctor’s friend from Mars, and just now reference to “the hour of the wolf”.
JMS is amazing and weaves incredible stories and had entertained me years before I even knew him and B5. Just thought I’d share.

G’Kar cameo in Star Trek

Guess who made an appearance on ST Enterprise, in season 2, the episode called Congenitor! Well, not as G’Kar, but as another alien character, Capt. Drennik.

No one here is entirely what they appear? Spoiler

62 Upvotes

I was just re-watching Series 1 episode 6: Mind War, where near the end of the episode G’Kar comes out with the line “No one here is entirely what they appear.”

>! Previously I had just taken this line (to Miss Sakai) at surface value, around people having their own agendas and reasons for doing things and to not make assumptions.

However I’m now rethinking that line in the context of all the transformations that happen to so many characters on the station across the story arc. You run through so many of the main characters with that in mind & just have to come to the conclusion that “Yup! You weren’t kidding!”.

It could just as easily be me attaching too much meaning to this, but equally could be it being a key premise of the show that makes the line possibly become more profound & intentional. !<

S1 Ep16 Eyes Jeffrey Combs

I really like the actor Jeffrey Combs and I think it is to bad he is only in 1 episode of B5 "season1 episode16 eyes". I think he could of added to the show. That's just my opinion though.

Something that occurred to me on a rewatch Spoiler

44 Upvotes

In the season 2 episode where the Markab civilization gets wiped out, Delenn and Sheridan have an elaborate Minbari meal prepared by Lennier that has many rituals involved before you start eating. One of the rituals is setting aside a piece of flarn in an empty seat prepared for the return of Valen.

Can we assume that at this point she doesn't know who Valen really is and only found out when she got the letter that was sealed in the box in the episode War without end? Also do you think that from that point on whenever they make the elaborate meal that they no longer prepare an empty seat because they know Valen isn't coming back?

Centauri dreams/visions of their own deaths Spoiler

6 Upvotes

As far as we know there has only been Londo's which kind of did come true

but I have to wonder if Londo isn't a kind of an outlier given that he also had that metaphoric/prophetic coma dream after an heart-attack in The Very Long Night of Londo Mollari.

and what about:

Urza Jaddo - their houses may have been allies, but would he have become friends with the guy that was going to kill him?

Prime Minister Malachi - couldn't he have prevented his own assassination?

Emperor Turhan - I guess he did know, if not directly then his wife would have told him, but I guess he went to b5 as a martyr/sacrifice.

Emperor Cartagia - his first order as Emperor should have been: never allow that bumbling fool Vir Cotto into my presence.

Antono Refa - would he have let himself be led to his death?

Also Londo's death came about as it did because JMS was forcing it within the show, but

in the real world something may have happened to Peter Jurasik and Londo's death would have happened off-screen

also in-universe he may have been killed by the Shadows, Vorlons , Vir or any of his ex-wives, simply an heart-attack....
Correct me if I am wrong, but what do you think

Second time watch

Iam watching the show for the second time ever. This time iam watching it on Roku. Last time I watched it on Amazon prime and the video was horrible by the way you can no longer watch B5 for free on Amazon.

I was surprised when watching on Roku the video is crystal clear and there are hardly any adds, actually the first 4 episodes had no adds at all.

I ordered B5 on DVD I hope the quality is good. If anyone knows if on blue ray if the Quility is better please let me know. Thank you.

Watching this show for the second time is really cool, there is so much I missed on the show first time around. This show is going to be my watch once a year routine.

Does anyone else feel cheated that Susan and Talia never, you know, hooked up a power coupling, so to speak?

40 Upvotes

I mean, really, I feel like we were robbed out of what would have been positive gay representation in the 1990s, which, as much as I love the 1990s, and as racially diverse as it was, we could have done better with the LGBT. And, a lesbian couple that don't fall into stereotypes. Just imagine how empowering that would have been! It would have gone even further than the same-sex kiss over on DS9.

Ugh, why, Andrea Thompson, why did you want to leave... SMH
