h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Me wubbles B5... me knows some of the episodes are quite poor... me knows some are a tad strange... but on the whole... WOW...

Nice write up... of cause you being a tad mean to my old mate Jerry Doyle is a bit of a downer... but maybe his perfection is for me alone... ~wink~

No no, I like Garibaldi too, it's just that Jerry 'this script is putrid' Doyle doesn't learn to act until after he shaves his head.

I have huge affection for B5, partly cos it brings back memories of happy times in my life, partly cos it's so ambitious - even if in the end it's at best only a flawed masterpiece - and partly cos it's been so influential - without B5 today we wouldn't have (the most obvious example) 24.

I saw Mira Furlan on stage last summer in front of 2500 largely indifferent Buffy fans, and I felt really sorry for her, an actress of her distinction being forced to sell autographs to make ends meet (I can't why else she'd be there).

Ah yes your convention review me remembers it well... if only for the fact you stood in the same area as my hero Spike stood... and even chatted to a look-a-like me remembers... or was that someone else???

Me does agree with you about Jerry Doyle's acting... it is very hit and miss.. ~grin~... even after he shaved his head... but me still loves the guy... well would do if he wasn't already taken by our good chum Talia Winters... gawd bless her...

Ummm... they're divorced. Right about the time she got fired from the show (funnily enough).

Last I heard, Jerry Doyle was running for Congress or something - his slogan was basically 'Vote for Me, I used to be in Babylon 5'. Oddly enough I don't believe he was elected...
