I always had a minor problem with Galatea's outfit here… (Power Girls too but not quite so much since I knew her age in the comics) - Galatea is presented almost as a child (Not sure about physically but mentally she seems to be). Certainly not much older that late teens… It made me feel kinda dirty watching animated…

I remember watching B5 when it originally aired… and the idea of a complete change in a series status quo (And seceding from Earth - basically the show being on the side that declares war on Earth) was a pretty major shock.

You know, this season has been so much better than the last run of episodes I will really be sorry to see this show go…

J.P : You are correct. And one or two companies pushing solar power is not the same as the entire world realizing the problems of climate change and resource depletion either…

I felt the same… there are some plot points (And I don't want to say what they are because, well, spoilers [Said in my best River Song voice]) that are left open. I wonder if it was done intentionally to leave the door open for a movie or season 5?

You know… that brings up a good question : Are series released on Netflix and Amazon eligible for Emmy's? I mean… Emmy's usually go for broadcast TV shows and such and these aren't really "broadcast"…

This is New England. Snowstorms happen with some frequency that can snow a town in for a day or two. I remember from my childhood that it would happen and people didn't freak out.

There is at least one person - in episode two, Barbie made mention of the cigarettes… he's looking forward to a point where there is going to be dwindling resources. Just like the real world, those that can look forward are the tiny minority of people.

"Food, water, and fuel are all going to run out, and nobody seems to care."

So far I watched the first two episodes of this show on Amazon. I gotta say… I could spend an hour a week with the characters - they seem to go down easy. But at the same time, this show needs more of a sense of urgency.

Umm… Killing off major characters at the end of a season isn't new… "Dynasty" did the same thing decades ago, Babylon 5 always had a bloodthirsty streak at the end of it's seasons, "Dallas" killed bobby (Or sent him into a coma for a few years, who knows)…

Shop, apparently.

I want to like a lot of this "New 52" and can't quite do it…

One of the touches in this episode that sets this series above other ones… The problems in Kaznia are not fixed at the end. The suspicions still exist between the factions and there is that promise the episode hints at that the violence will resume at some point.

This show is on netflix and I decided to give it a try. I wasn't really betting much on it since, let's face it, MTV does not have a history of very good TV of this type. But I have to say… there is something weirdly addictive about it. I can't call it a "Good" show but I have to say that one episode sort of leads to…

You know, I was thinking some of the same things about the sense of urgency when I read the book (I haven't seen the show yet since I am waiting for episode 3 to show up on my Amazon VOD queue to get a good sense of it). But then I thought to myself - "What would I do?"

I have yet to read the review, but let's see how close I am (I haven't even seen the episode) :

Something that always bugged me about the idea of Nerva… Why create a space station to store the last vestiges of humanity when it would have been quicker to simply dig underground places to do that on Earth? After all, the space station (Being in orbit around the earth) would have been hit by the same solar flares…

Ahhh… "Devered Dreams" is coming up. One of those really REALLY important episodes of B5. And one of the best as well.

You know I am rewatching this show lately and I have come to a realization : The shows portrayal of Micheal Scott is actually consistent, if a tad complex. Micheal is a selfish idiot, yeah. He's also surprisingly smart in some areas and most often cares about other people more than his own selfish urges.
