Most (and technically all) actors do.

I liked how G'Kar turned from warrior into a priest and didn't go all soppy about it. :D

Hehe, I'm watching Tron for the first time. Sheridan as a programmer gives me a good laugh. Oh, and Jurasik is in this too eh?

Haha, James Callis (Gaius Baltar) is in B5.

Edit: Or maybe someone who looks and talks just like him.

The only person that comes to mind is...Marcus.

Marcus? Baltar? They look nothing alike. :P

No, the young monk is season 4's finale. I know Marcus isn't Baltar. I'm not that thick of an american.

hmm season 1 they were figuring things out and had TNT meddling in some of the eps....
Season 5 they didn't even know they were going to get + one of the cast left them so they had to create a new character (that kinda set things back)

One thing I do know that was good throughout was the music.... WOW!

i agree, and i have all the series too and some of the movies and the spin-off crusade.... unfortunately crusade was less well done than B5 and you mentioned B5 music.... dont get me started on crusades music diabolical is putting it mildly. and i don't want to put any one off but they do this weird "no sound but crap music" thing in the battles.

put it this way: B5 awsome with season 5 (capt lockley right) being worst but they have a few good episodes like "a view from the gallery" which follows a 2 man repair crew during a major attck rather than the main cast brilliant (but i am electrician by trade so...)

Na'Toth: The ambassador is very busy with his "heavy" work schedule.
*3 scantily clad girls walk out*
Na'Toth: I believe the ambassador can see you now.

My favourite Series 1 moment. xD

I finished watching season 5, and I'm re-watching season 1. Wow, the writing for season 5 was terrible. I'm enjoying the first season so much more.

Yes. Well, it was written in a rush after all. JMS had more time to complete the first season.

3 + 4th seasons in particular blew my mind.

Shame the 5th turned out how it did

yeah, well that fifth season, was kinda tacked on, the show was going to end after the fourth, I felt that season 4 was a bit rushed because they had originally planned to spread it out over 4 and 5, but combined them when they thought 4 was the final season.

Just finished "War Without End" and I have to say that is by far the BEST story arc (from Season 1: Babylon Squared to Season 3!) I have ever seen.  I always wondered if they would try to work that into the show at some point, and all the time it was a planned thing!  Great job of meshing the two stories together, as well as using the original footage to supplement the newer stuff.  Emmy-worthy episodes, right there . . .

For anyone who doesn't have the DVDs, there is a website called TheWB that has all the episodes.

BTW does anyone else prefer Sinclair to Sheridan or am I the only one?

Sheridan. Sinclair was good, he was just a bit wooden at times. In fact, I think that his disappearance and then reappearance mid-way through series 3 did his character some good. His "destiny" I think surprised most people and we still don't quite know the end of his story.
