I agree with Michael_Is_My_Co-Caine in that it was more than just the speech.  Apart from the presence of Lorien, in the earlier days there quite possibly weren't as many younger races for the Shadows and Vorlons to deal with, they certainly had never come together in common cause as they did with the Shadow War. …

The first season special effects were done with an Amiga computer using Lightwave 3D, which at the time put all the other CGI software to shame.  Obviously we've gone well past that point now but it was state of the art for the nineties and I agree it still holds up pretty well.

On a side note: if you have a really high quality copy of "Signs and Portents", take a look at about the 13 minute mark, when Lady Ladira is having her first vision of the station, the monitor behind her is announcing a Rolling Stones Farewell Concert.  There's also Black Market Basketball, safety lessons in case of…

I haven't counted it, but he also uses the phrase "expose our flank to the enemy" a lot, as if he looked it up in a military lexicon and thought it was cool.

It's amazing to think that, with all the physical resources available to a space-faring race (I read somewhere once that there's more iron in one small-to-mid sized asteroid in the belt between Mars and Jupiter than humankind has used in all of civilization: don't know how true THAT is, but, as Doug Adams reminded us,…

I know they're another X-spinoff, but what about Excalibur?  Shadowcat, Captain Britain, Nightcrawler, Phoenix (Rachel), they had a pretty long run and some very surreal storylines that might make for something interesting.
