41:07 it's sort of sad that this is an issue from every walk of life. I think they forget that prayer without actions means nothing.
Common mullein is a great medicinal plant originally from Eurasia which definitely is great for the herb garden. Once it escapes into the wild it outcompetes native North American plant species which themselves often have medicinal value. So keep the European mullein from colonizing North American plants, keep it it in the the garden and use it, but also keep it out of the wild places in North America where it doesn't belong.
"how do I make it look like the explosion did it?" 😂😂😂
Real life Commanders don't have the intelligence to end a strike in this way
Wow, that was quick 😁
Mutual Admiration and Sacrificial Society, or a religious mass? 🤔
I always try to remember that I can't use logic to get someone out of a situation they didn't use logic to get into. 🙄
I always figured the Lumati realized afterwards that he had been tricked but he would never admit it to anyone else because he would look worse. 😂
Unfortunately the new actor playing Natoth chose to be much more passive than the original actor, a rare misstep by JMS who usually didn't recast the same role with a new actor.
Their exact ages are never definitively stated, but JMS said Delenn is probably in her late 40s or early 50s. Lennier is probably in his early 20s. Minbari can live until almost 200 years at this point.
WRT religion, to quote Morpheus, "there is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path". I feel like too many supposedly religious people "know" the path but do not walk it.
We don't really know what the average Narn or Centauri citizen wants, if they want war or peace. The upper class wants war because they always want war since war is always profitable. 🙄
Nita made me LOL with "and his dick on the table" 😂
Awesome, a second episode today 😁
Every time I hear Sheridan's joke on a rewatch my answer is "It only takes The One" 😂
Bester was on Mars at the beginning of the episode.
I am currently watching it for the first time. I am still on season one and I am enjoying it so much
Stoner is a telempath since he can project the emotional changes.
I wish Sunday's volume could be a little higher, have to turn it up to hear her snd then down when others talk.
I will make an adjustment. Thanks.
Gotta disagree about the motivations for many people, now it is about who supports democracy and who wants a fascist system to replace it. One party has gotten increasingly fascist in recent years. The other hasn't so the parties are not the same and picking one isn't random for most people now
Yes, Ivanovna was promoted from Lt. Commander to full Commander.
👾👾👾👾👾

Awesome, wasn't expecting this for another week 😁 Jerry Baldy 😂 you can tell when the fair accuracy when you are in B5 by his hairline or lack thereof. 😂
The Minbari do not have a capitalist system. They obviously use money though and funded the creation of B5.
Good observation. I'm going to keep that in mind.
The desire to binge will grow stronger throughout seasons 2,3, and 4. I would say that watching several episodes at once is not a bad idea as there are a number of mini-arcs.
I've been taking better notes now. Watching each episode twice helps me put my thoughts together and not binge.
Nice, I was just checking for new stuff 😁
Make it a "members" only club to get the special features 😂
The biggest problem I have with the death of personality is the so-called "enforced servitude" afterwards. It is slavery. That never gets brought up during the show unfortunately. 😕 It isn't even punishing the same person.
A season wrapup is a good idea, a lot happens in season 1 that gets overlooked by a number of fans I have seen that skip all of most of season 1 in their rewatches and downplay it. Admittedly it isn't as good as 2,3,or 4 but I enjoy many season 1 episodes and I really find new watchers perspectives today very interesting as many of them seem to enjoy season 1 quite a bit more than old fans.
This episode is still maligned by "fans" 🙄 but it does serve up important background for later episodes and no episode of B5 will ever be as bad as STNG Code of Honor.
I think Claudia Christian was a much better choice for the show, we will see Richard Biggs as Dr Franklin next episode and he was great too. I am glad JMS didn't recast the same roles from the pilot.
The actress playing Lt Takashima was in Picard, do you recognize her? 🤔
I totally missed that
So....what happened is that JMS pitched B5 to Paramount and handed them his B5 show bible over a year before and then they told him they were declining B5 and shortly afterwards their plan for DS9 was announced. Paramount ripped JMS off. No two ways about it. He did generously give a pass to the writing staff of DS9 as being blameless in the matter but he pointedly states in videos here on RUclips that Paramount and the producers stole a number of his ideas and concepts and "suggested" them to the writers as plot points and characters to develop. Even worse, Paramount played extremely dirty on the business end, telling networks and stations that if they carried B5 they would lose rights to all of Star Trek. It finally reached a head when Majel Barrett intervened and the writers of DS9 realized what had been going on and Paramount mostly stopped.
Nita might enjoy a series on youtube named Logic Lessons with Mr. Spock. I believe they were done back during the Star Trek animated series. CHDanhauser has been publishing them if you search here.
JMS put a lot of politics into B5 so I am looking forward to going through all your episodes and catching up with your watch. 😁
The ironic part of Garibaldi and Talia is that the actors were married for a time during season 2. 😂
It will be harder not to binge forward as you continue 😂
Absolutely!
I only found you by chance, it would help if you put Babylon 5 somewhere in the video title, otherwise it is very hard to find you
*Promo sm*
We always have fun recording these. It's so cool to see where this show takes my mind.
I had fun talking about this one.
