All episodes of Babylon 5 are on the WB now. Hulu had the first two but now all of them are on the WB website.
own everything b5 on dvd
lol
No No No.. not the one...
Yeah it’s pretty tight.
Also went thru all 10 seasons of Stargate SG-1 the last few month. Really liked it too, very pro-US show and some good mind-stretching plots.
woo-hoo
Maybe Hulu can link them like they do the Twilight Zone at the CBS website.
Some observations: Before B5, J. Michael Straczynski was a writer for both the He-Man and She-Ra cartoons, and The Real Ghostbusters cartoon.
The latter, especially, has some very good story lines, and are worth checking out for those who enjoy his writing. (Importantly, not to be confused with the Filmation “Ghostbusters”, or the very lame spin-off of the cartoon, “Slimer! And the Real Ghostbusters”, which was a stinker.)
(Finally, “Extreme Ghostbusters”, which came out a decade later, is seen as the best of the series. Top notch plot lines.)
There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. Slight differences in how you pronounce. Zathras, Zathras, Zathras.. You are seeing now?”
I’m hearing that in Londo’s voice. Perfect!
Capt. John Sheridan: [practicing his “apology”] I apologize... I’m sorry.
[exhales]
Capt. John Sheridan: I’m sorry we had to defend ourselves against an unwarranted attack. I’m sorry that your crew was stupid enough to fire on a station filled with a quarter million civilians, including your own people. And I’m sorry I waited as long as I did before I blew them all straight to Hell!... As with everything else, it’s the thought that counts.
My favorites Lines were:
We thought you were dead.
I was. But I’m better now.
* “Zathras is used to being beast of burden to other people’s needs. Very sad life. Probably have very sad death. But, at least there is symmetry.”
Zathras think this is a good thing.
Citizen G’Kar: Do you want to be president?
Captain John Sheridan: Yes.
Citizen G’Kar: Then put your hand on the book and say I do.
Captain John Sheridan: I do.
Citizen G’Kar: Good, let’s eat!
“ahhh...arrogance and stupidity all in the same package. How efficient of you!” - Londo Molari
from In the Beginning...
One of my favorite lines, Molari said that when Earth attacked the Memebari and they wanted his advice on whether or not to launch the attack.
“Narn opera, the techno mages inflicted that on me”
“never punch a membari in the head”
Thanks! One of my favorite episodes is “Divided Loyalties” where Lyta returns to expose a traitor!
“It’s an Earth food. They are called Swedish meatballs. It’s a strange thing, but every sentient race has its own version of these Swedish meatballs. I suspect it’s one of those great universal mysteries which will either never get explained or which will drive you mad if you ever learned the truth.”
