Babylon Podcast #261: Mondopalooza Part 1 Mar 07, 2012

Show notes

Welcome to Show #260, and the start of Season 7 of the Babylon Podcast! Get ready, Babylon 5 fans... the coverage of the comics, novels, guidebooks, games and collectibles is about to commence.

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer, Bret and Jeremy discuss the last officially produced Babylon 5 video content, The Lost Tales.

Babylon Podcast #259: Legend of the Rangers (movie) Feb 15, 2012

Show notes

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Jeremy discuss the last Babylon 5 made-for-TV movie, Legend of the Rangers, which aired in January 2002. Yes, ten years ago, people. A treatment for this movie exists in Scriptbook Volume 10, and the full script is in the TV Movies scriptbook, so compare and contrast at your leisure. Let the nitpicking begin: there aren't many real issues with the actual story, just some execution miscues.

Babylon Podcast #258: Little Bugs Have Lesser Bugs (Crusade) Feb 01, 2012

Show notes

Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss the unproduced Crusade script, "Little Bugs Have Lesser Bugs", which was written by Peter Woodward and slated to be a Season 2 episode. The larger implications from the plot of this script are intriguing, given that it revealed a previously unknown vulnerability in the Drakh, and also gives us a storytelling conundrum, trying to obsessively figure out where in Season 2 this episode would have aired.

Babylon Podcast #256: The End of the Line (Crusade) Dec 14, 2011

Show notes

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Jeremy discuss the unproduced Crusade script, "The End of the Line", which was slated to be the Season 1 finale. As always, Captain Gideon's dogged pursuit of the truth behind the destruction of his old ship leads him and his crew into knowledge that shakes their trust in their superiors, and Gideon himself to a personal crossroads... and a cliffhanger that could have been as intriguing as Z'ha'dum leading into Hour of the Wolf.

Also discussed are three spec pitches by Richard Mueller, for "Fire in the Blood", "House Odds", and "Mixed Blessings".
