The shadow ships are genuinely weird, and genuinely creepy.

I agree. One of the best designs in SF

New Year is never a good time on B5.

That's bad. B5 never shies from evil happenings

He can't be President. He isn't wearing a cloak or anything.

Watching the horror unfold on ISN makes it worse, I think.

Surely you mean evening dress and high heels?

Londo has stepped into the darkness...unwillingly.....

Some of the best scenes in B5 are ones with no dialogue, like that one with Lennier.

Out of a desire to recover lost greatness - very prescient.

Fancy being crept up on by a vorlon...

Yes and the full meaning of his reaction is not revealed until much much later...

Don't suppose you'd know about it unless they wanted you to.

But you could guess, I think - it was no great surprise to me.
 
AnneArthur
Was that what you imagined Delenn would do next, Ms Virn?
 
M1795537OCVirn
There, it's over. I may have to go and binge-watch this first series in order in the hope that it will all make sense one day.

Yes but it is what he then does...**no spoilers***

I have already started. But they are releasing the bluray of B5 next month so I am trying to hang on for that...

I think that is one hell of an episode.

Yes me too but I think I was remembering a scene in a corridor when they are revealed to the main cast

I have a great desire to start watching series 2, which is where I started watching. Like with Blakes 7, I missed the beginning.

Right. I have no idea what we'll be rewatching next time. Maybe I should PM TT and find out if he has any plans.
Meanwhile, I hope you two have signed up to the Horizon Advent Calendar.

Do we know what we are watching next?

I will, I will. Sadly I won't make next week, but should be fine for the week after.

Come on! No excuses! Just find a pic of your favourite B7 character to post when it's your turn. Which would be Servalan, no doubt,

Is there anything (other than B5) you'd want to rewatch?

Happy to watch The Prisoner, which I think was suggested. Would still like to try Hugbot's German series, despite not having a word of German. But I'm very happy to go with the flow.

Just remembered that I am going to see Jools Holland this Thursday so that makes 2 of us who won't be here.
