Babylon Podcast #212: Feedbackapalooza Sep 17, 2010

Show notes

Summer and Bret wonder if Tim truly saw a scene that he remembers with extra dialogue between Lochley and Garibaldi about the potential of Sheridan losing his grip on reality due to his "condition". Or, Tim could have been tripping, or lucid dreaming... we may never know. Then, Summer's mind is blown from learning of a previously unknown connection between "Fist of the North Star" and B5, and how that ties into her fanfic vision of Crusade.

Babylon Podcast #208: The Babylon 5 That Might Have Been Aug 18, 2010

Show notes

This episode scratches the surface of the untapped, the unexplored, and the fanciful and highly speculative Babylon 5 storylines that either never came to be or were never considered, leaving us little option other than to argue about whether or not they should have been, and how things might have worked out differently for the series as a whole. Fanfic aficionados got nothin' on us.

Babylon Podcast #206: Surprises in Babylon 5 Jul 22, 2010

Show notes

Tim, Summer and Bret (and the entire B5 fandom) are glad to hear that Jerry Doyle is doing better and recovering well. We also discuss the lingering Hollywood accounting shenanigans, and how after all these years, Babylon 5 is still considered by Warner Bros to still be $80 million in the hole. The topic this episode is all about the surprises we experienced while watching Babylon 5, both the very first time, and the subtle new things discovered on subsequent viewings.
