I loved the way he played Sinclair It's tough cos I think he would have got better in the role but Bruce Boxleitner was so great also as Sheridan. Silflay hraka, u embleer rah!

Looking at Mollari here, you cant imagine what he would become.

The only problem I have is the scenario is Americans in space with politics and everything assumed to be the American way.

So many B5 actors are no longer with us. But as with B7, it makes me proud that they have left these good works behind them

We gradually learn that Earth has a world president so in a way it is sad we didn't get to see other representation, as you say. But with so much story to tell, JMS had to make a decision over what to say

That is a great 1st episode if you hadn't seen the pilot film. It really sets up the dynamics of the station in alien space

It had everything right from the start, as B7 did. The characters in both shows are so compelling and the storytelling is wonderful.

I do like the way JMS showed our world's religions. I agree with you. It treats religion as something both coming from someone's personality and moulding it, not as either a twee hobby or dangerous brainwashing, as Star Trek tends to. |

Sorry to miss this - it's a good start, especially when you know how Londo and G'Kar will end up. |
