I think the loss is during the transition to an auditory medium. Words which look great in print can be atrocious when said aloud. (Not to mention that actors will probably be in a murderous mood if they are forced to memorize pages of prose that include "sesquipedalian" and "brobdingnangian")

Sorry, the best Lana was Stacy Haiduk.

I learned that word while reading a reprint of a Avengers #50 (1968). Hercules, of all people, was using it during his fight with Typhon the titan.

I'm not quite sure what it is about his enunciation, but I really like the way Patrick Stewart says, "This is absolutely thrilling."

Herbert.
Herbert!

Agreed.
Bob should be starting at the office and ending on a happy note (when he gets a kiss from Emily at home), rather than the other way around. Also, I like the piano more than the electric organ for this music.

What do you mean, "about to pee his pants"?

"Mason Verger, are you paying attention?"
"Yes, Dr. Lecter."
"I don't think Will's dogs are hungry. I'd like you to put down the scalpel, go to the TV studio, and sing your face off."
"That sounds wonderful, Hannibal."

Doh!
Up to reading this comment, I thought "family Bromeliad" referred to a family-run corporation that only sold one edible fruit. (Guess they specialized in selling inedible fruits, or something.)

Right. I don't think that Bester was actively looking to kidnap Garibaldi for his Edgars' plan, but when Garibaldi fell in his lap, Bester recognized the opportunity to use him as a piece in his puzzle.

Edgars is also a comment about how people have their own priorities.
The show has centered on the Shadow threat (and post-conflict fallout), but people not actively involved wouldn't have known how important those events were.

Obviously, he is a technomage.
His words magically appear on this Internet thingy.

Continuing Babylon 5’s love of heroic agency, Bester tells Garibaldi “I used you because I had no other choice.” This seems mildly far-fetched.

Every time I hear that title, I imagine mob enforcers with baseball bats holding down a contestant's legs.
"So you think you can dance, wise guy? whack! How about now?"

I'm pretty sure I've read some of these in fortune cookies.
(When did they stop telling fortunes, and start giving insane platitudes?)

Mr. "Hilter": Ah yes, ve make a little hike for, for Bideford.

Or launch a barrage of flaming Freddy-wheelchairs at Hannibal's last known location.

Yeah, for a moment I thought he was in his mind palace.

Re-read what I wrote.
I admitted, up front, that this was a pro-Apple viewpoint.
This was to provide some balance to your so-called "pro-truth" account, which sounded like it was pushing the prosecution press releases.
