Random thought
Mar. 11th, 2009 12:46 amI was just listening to the song after watching an episode of B5, and a thought came to me. After the end of S4, were there 1.9 million Ivanova/Marcus songfics to "Running Up That Hill"? *g*
I'm into S2 now! Hurrah. Bruce Boxleitner is a big improvement over Michael O'Hare, although I liked Sinclair as a character. So were the S2 credits shown the first time this aired? Because that would totally have blown the surprise of Delenn's appearance after she leaves her cocoon, which I assume happens in the next episode.
By the way, Hulu has the pilot movie, "The Gathering," placed in between S1 and S2. Should I watch it, or is it needless filler?

Really? Whoa. He reminds me of an underwear model--very, very bland-looking.
Yep! I find him much more cute than sexy though. Seeing him playing a character who falls in love (like on Scarecrow and Mrs. King) really endeared him to me.
Hmm. I'm leaning towards watching it after I watch all the regular episodes.
Sounds good. Now that I've had time to check on Hulu, I think I have bits of "The Gathering" confused with other episodes & movies. I believe that B5 often reveals parts of the story and then fills in others when they will have a greater impact.
By the way, I nearly cracked up when I saw that Sheridan has a picture of the Lone Cypress (as in my default icon) up in his quarters. I'm a dork. ;)
ETA: I had "The Gathering" and "In the Beginning" confused. Much of "In the Beginning" is set during the Earth/Minbari war, but contains spoilers for season 1 - 4. "The Gathering" is about the early days of the B5 station. According to wikipedia, a revised version "The Gathering" aired right after "In The Beginning," which may have added to my confusion. Sorry about that!

(And hey, he falls in love with Delenn, right? Although I see from newsgroup archives and whatnot that apparently some people thought she deserved better...)

Hee! I was looking for that in the episode I just watched. Cool!
