Does someone want to explain what some of these are? Is "In The Beginning" a recap of the first four years, or what?
In the Beginning is the tale of the Earth-Minbari war, told in a flashback form by Londo Mollari to two children just before the events twenty years from now which we saw in the time-travel episode. (Whem!) It should give more info on what and why. The "Guide" is a quick overview. And "Thirdspace is a mystery story which takes place during the series, but which is not actually referneced in any broadcast episodes, afaik.

Glad I used a 130 minute tape and a 160 tape to record B5
this past Sunday. I switched to the 160 in the last commercial
break before the very end of In The Beginning. Kinda felt there
would be no space between that and The Gathering.
TNT was better last night at getting the first episode in
within 7pm and 8pm. 8pm live sports may have kept the clock
correct.
I'm going to try to tape them all, sans commercials. This is my first major taping project, so we'll see how long I go before I screw up. :) I got some 3-packs of 160-minute "everyday" Maxell tapes at Target for $7 apiece. Is that a good price, can anyone tell me? Where do you all get your tapes?
I found 10 packs of tapes at Best Buy for $13, but I think they were on special sale then. They are only 120 minute tapes, but they are of reasonable quality.
Thanks Matthew - I'll check there.
I am using 160 minute tapes. Three episodes on each tape. I
squirelled away a large quantity of 3M High Grade Collections tapes
about a year ago, since they have less advertising on them as they
sit on the shelf and have a more durable cardboard case. I had been
using only plastic sleeved tapes for Star Trek collections, but alas,
those, too, have gone extint in the video tape market.
"The Gathering" and 22 first season episodes puts the first
season on 8 tapes at standard speed, cross-taping from SP to SP to
remove commercials.
I have the fourth season on 8 130 minutes tapes. At 44 min
per episode x 3, that uses 132 minutes of tape. Some just fit.
I also copied Garabaldi's 2nd favorite thing in the universe
after the first episode: Duck Dodgers in the 24&1/2th Century.
If I pay less than $2 per tape, I am happy. By that standard, $7 for 3 tapes is a bit much. "Everyday" probably means it's good to record over every day. If you are planning to archive your B5 tapes, this is probably not the thing you need. When I keep tapes, I do not bother to cut out commercials. The risk of missing part of the show, wasting time finding the right point on the tape, the quality of image you lose when you cross-tape do not seem worth it to me. I'll zip past the commercials when I watch the tapes.
Help! I have a Babylon 5 question. I put it at the end of item 19, but I don't know if anyone reads that anymore....
I'm afraid I don't recall everything he said. Anyone have a tape they can refer back to easily ?
>I'm afraid I don't recall everything he said. I'd be happy to hear about *anything8 he said.
At one point he did tell lanier that he would betray the rangers.
Thank you!
This sucks: I DON'T GET ANY CHANNEL THAT SHOWS BAB5!!!! WAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
On the bright side, WB Home Video will begin releasing B5 video tapes later this year...
"Thirdspace" the next B5 TV movie airs on TNT Sunday, July 19th
TNT added a West Coast feed, so now California sees the shows
at the same clock time as us on Eastern Time.
TNT also added an 11pm showing of the 5th season episode that
aired at 8pm Wednesday.
Any reviews of Thirdspace?
I did not find it fit into our B5 as we know it. Only gave
us some backstory on Leda and Zack and a couple others. What is it
with Sheridan and nukes anyway?
Haven't had a chance to watch the tape yet.
The nukes still seem to be a very powerful weapon. they haven't talked about why they don't use them more in military space campaigns.
Any way you look at it, a thermonuclear reaction generates a *lot* of energy. Didn't EarthForce use nukes on Mars when it tried to seceede?
For those that do not know, in January Babylon 5: Crusade will hopefully begin airing on TNT. It's another 5 year project, just like the original Babylon 5. More information can of course be found at most Babylon 5 websites, and a good starting point may be http://tnt.turner.com/babylon5 or http://www.midwinter.com/lurk.
And for those who want the last five episodes of B5 completely ruined >8) send me e-mail and I'll forward the spoilers I got last week.
Well, here we are the night of the last episodes produced for season 5. "Objects at Rest" . Next week in the final episode, written and shot in April-May, 1997. We know it's the last episode, but don't read the little blurbs in TV Guide, they give away too much. Just watch next Wednesday at 10pm on TNT (Ann Arbor Cable 30).
WWWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, is this thing finally over?
Yep.
I'm amazed that I heard nothing about it ending, compared to everything I had heard during the previous years.
personally, I thought it kinda ended with a fizzle.
It could have been better, though I'm still happy to see how Vir ended up. >8)
Looks like Crusade has been cancelled. :(
Maybe - TNT will be showing the 13 episodes which have been filmed so far, and Warner Brothers is hoping to sell the series (or get it renewed) if the ratings are good.
JMS sounded pretty pessimistic in the article I read. Let's all watch it, though, and see if we can tip the ratings scale. :)
When's it supposed to be on? And is Marcus dead or what?
Oh, Marcus is very very dead. That was a while ago! Crusade will be debuting June 9th at 10 PM on TNT.
he seems to be a corpsickle.
I read somewhere that he was told that if x happened then Marcus wouldn't really be dead, he would be in cryogenic sleep or something, and if x didn't happen Marcus would just be well... dead.
