How many permanent and modular sets were used in the production of B5? 1 permanent set (the Observation Dome) and 5 modular sets (everything else). They would typically be breaking down one or two sets and building out one or two sets at any given time. Noise was a huge management problem with the sets all crammed into a single converted warehouse, so construction had to come to a halt every time someone called action and pick up again every time someone yelled cut. Set dressing was the largest department with lots of modular walls, floors, doors, pipes, fake plants, furniture, crates, plaques, fake garbage and everything else that might be needed. Huge contrast to Star Trek TNG with its three purpose built sound stages hosting twenty permanent sets.
We need a stewards enquiry into question 6. Both Lyta and Talia were Psi Corp in season 1. Lyta was the first commercial telepath sent by Psi Corp to B5. Talia replaced her.
There are multiple issues here. 1} Need a Slide to clearly note this is limited to Seasons 1 through 3, not rely on a point on a slide. 2} is fine because it says THE instead of A. And as much as Ivanova is an amazing XO, she is still not THE commander. 6} Has multiple answers depending on WHEN, even if you limit it to the first three seasons. 7} Should have Jeribaldi for those in the know. 9} All of the Above. Londo is less Cryptic. Zathras and Kosh are less prophecies and more history that has not happened yet. 11} Technically, the Minbari were involved and kept paying for half of everything with B1 through 4. They threatened to pullout after 4, but agreed to pay for half of 5 but no more. 'Who administers the Babylon Project?' would be better. 19} G'kar is the better option. Kosh saves John but not out of being an ally. Kosh gets involved in pushing for a single engagement, not an alliance. G'kar provides valuable data, support, and a constant push to be included as a member of the alliance for light. Kosh is a one-off and only does it at the insistence of Sheridan. 20} 'ancient enemy threatening the galaxy' needs to be in quotes. 24} I would suggest 'Who is like "the arrow that springs from the bow." as "Chosen One" can fit all of them. 25) Shadow Dancing is the first military to military confrontation. Messages from Earth is just two lone ships getting into an "accidental" fight. The Start of Wars is never attributed to engagements of scouting or rogue forces. 26} "elite"? 'What is the name of the force used by EarthGov to take control of Babylon 5?' 29} None of the Above? Kosh sacrifices himself to win an engagement, but it has nothing to do with B5. Sheridan sacrifices himself, but has no idea it stopped an attack on B5. Marcus Cole is willing to sacrifice himself to save a training base, but nothing to do with B5. "Whose sacrifice stopped an attack on Babylon 5?" Might be better.
This was hard to put together. I used an AI to help me formulate the questions and I did limited research for each question due to possible spoilers. So, not perfect, I'll do better next time. Thanks for the feedback
@@KevynJacobs But not prophecy. In WWE, we are shown that Kosh was one of the Vorlons that came to Valen's side to greet the Minbari. His exposure to Valen meant that he most likely was told about all the events up to WWE, which includes the Narn/Centauri War and its resolution. The War did end in fire, by the use of mass drivers on Narn. Kosh was not prophesying, but spouting off a cryptic knowledge of events that had already happened in Valen's life. This is different from the prophesying of Lady Ladira, Londo, Lady Morella, and Elric. PS: Lady Ladira's vision is perhaps one of the few things about B5 that I wish I could pay to make the tiniest of changes to the CGI. A change that first-time watchers would never even know had been made and 99% of repeat watchers would Mandela Effect into believing it had always been that way (like saying Entil'zha Valen). But I would like the symmetry, so very Zathras of me.
@KevynJacobs Kosh was my answer for that question. I think Kosh needed to be left out of the possible answers if Xathrus was the answer they were going for.
If we count Pilot episode, both Lyta Alexander and Talia Winters are members of Psi Corps in Season 1. Well, even if we don't count Pilot episode, chronologically Lyta quits corps way after the Season 1.
I did see one answer in there that was a spoiler of sorts.... it hasn't been mentioned yet in the series, but by itself you'd have no idea what it is yet up to season 3
#6 is kinda weird, cause we don't know when Lyta went rogue, so during season 1 she might still be part of the Psi Corps #9 technically Kosh and Zathras are both the right answer :) I noticed that some of the alternative answers are references to episodes/movies you haven't seen yet. I'm assuming this wasn't made by the R Knights? #25 the war starts in Ship of Tears when Ivanova gets a report the Shadows have started openly attacking Brakiri space. The first real battle was fought by the Vorlons in the episode Interludes and Examinations, the first battle by the younger races was in Shadow Dancing, but the war had been long going by that point so... Outside of these questions I got all right (the religious leaders bonus question was a curveball)
Nothing, because we all know that no one listen to poor Zathras. In fact, Zathras have sad life, probably have sad death, but at least there is symmetry.
Since you will be moving on to Season 4 here shortly, you do not need to worry about spoilers in the intro credits, it is nothing but clips from the previous 3 seasons with several audio clips as well overlayed to give an idea of what the previous 3 seasons were about.
Regarding question 9, I would submit that Kosh is way more mysterious, speaks of prophecies and speaks way more cryptically than Zanthras I would argue that question 27 is misleading as the answer is the only ship that is not 100% Minbari. It combines Minbari and Vorlon technology Two of the options are 100% Minbari ships and the the other option is a Class of ship that the two 100% Minbari ships belong to.
29 here too and i too chose Kosh for #9 but i stumbled on the last bonus question as i really had forgotten the name. I also stumbled on unlucky #13 for some reason.
I think #2 is a trick question, Ivanova is actually in command and just lets everyone think Sinclair is. 😂
I think you might be right. Extra credit lol
Well, she is God!!
Number one: Ivanova is always right.
Number two: I will listen and do what Ivanova says.
Number three: when in doubt refer to number one. 😂

Wasn't she only in the movie?
@@RKnights Yes, but the Movie was the pilot episode and pilot episodes are considered to be part of Season 1.
The gathering is not part of season 1. Season 1 starts with MotFL
Just want to be the first to say it... Question 9 is opinion! 😛
lol, its my first full trivia, give me some leeway 😂

@@RKnights #9 Kosh definitely engages in cryptic prophecy. Example: Season 2: Emperor Turhan: "How will this end?" Kosh: "In fire."
@@KevynJacobs But not prophecy. In WWE, we are shown that Kosh was one of the Vorlons that came to Valen's side to greet the Minbari.

29 points. #9 was tricky and the last bonus i had forgotten the name. I dont know why i chose Ivanova for #13...
I did see one answer in there that was a spoiler of sorts.... it hasn't been mentioned yet in the series, but by itself you'd have no idea what it is yet up to season 3
Yeah I saw that
#6 is kinda weird, cause we don't know when Lyta went rogue, so during season 1 she might still be part of the Psi Corps
#9 technically Kosh and Zathras are both the right answer :)

Outside of these questions I got all right (the religious leaders bonus question was a curveball)
First to the 🗝️ first to the 🥚
All the answers are Zathras....so what do I win? 😂
I'm pretty sure it was Zathras, not Zathras. But we all know it wasn't Zathras.
Are you 💯% sure? 😂
Nothing, because we all know that no one listen to poor Zathras. In fact, Zathras have sad life, probably have sad death, but at least there is symmetry.

I guessed Nightwatch but I definitely wouldn't call them elite either.
Well I forgot THE rule and got one question wrong when I answered Kosh instead of Zathas on question 9 🤦🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️
Its all good. Hope you had fun
@@RKnights I did. Thx ☺️

29 plus all bonus. I answered Kosh rather than Zarthras. The answer should always be Zathras.
29 here too and i too chose Kosh for #9 but i stumbled on the last bonus question as i really had forgotten the name. I also stumbled on unlucky #13 for some reason.
22 out of 30 based on freaking names bro 🤦🏻♂️😂
26/30 and 1 bonus question
