Aww, no need to apologize~ I like when people actually interact with me, haha. And thanks for the offer, but I’ve actually got it, I’ve just never watched it! Same with all the movies, actually. one glorious day.
:) As do I.
I actually REALLY enjoyed the pilot movie. It’s got some great Londo in it and G’Kar flounces at, like, mach 10. Everyone is so awkward and unrefined in both look and character, yet they’re somehow the same people. It’s like looking at a good friend’s highschool photos and laughing at their dumb haircut together.
That’s fascinating, I love this analogy.

Yeah, any interviews I see, someone inevitably mentions Andreas being amazing on his own, but then how incredible it is that he’s just as amazing under ten pounds of latex, so I think about the makeup stuff all the time while I’m watching now.
MAN THAT AND THE FORESHADOWING
Foreshadowing levels are over 9000, even in seasons 1 and 2.
[[MORE]]I mean…. the previous head of the Epsilon machine appearing to Sinclair, Draal, and LONDO because they have the greatest potential for sacrifice? STAB ME IN THE HEART. And the technomages like “You’ll suffer the rest of your life for your mistakes// victims” is like NOW TWIST. UGH he hurts so bad ><
Lord help me, I’m dying.
The foreshadowing wrecks my life EVERY TIME. Tinsnip has been saying that one of her favorite parts of watching this with me is watching me start HOWLING at seemingly random and innocuous lines.
I read someone once that Season 1 of Babylon 5 is really almost more for someone who has finished the show than for people just starting, and I’m starting to think that may be accurate. There’s so much stuff that just sends me into a wailing spiral, oh my god.
Like every word out of Londo’s mouth just makes me wish I were being launched into space to scream into the void.
