I just love your excitement "I'm here for it!"
Interludes and Examinations. Such an innocuous title, isn't it? Then … BAM! … Adira.
Then BOOM! Kosh!
JMS knows how to pull the rug from under us….
"Scifi at its best". Indeed!
Great to see your reactions.
Be seeing you!
There's the problem with trekkies. They think there is nothing but Trek in sci fi. Everything else is a spin off.
Bester really only cares about telepaths; normal humans are expendable.
Are you sure that's coffee? lol
"cryptic ass being cryptic" lol. It's the Vorlon way
This episode absolutely kicks the shit out of you. Franklin, Adira, Kosh… 😢
First saw this ep when it aired and to this day I still tear up when Kosh died.
The funny thing is that we know Kosh knows that he pisses people off I being cryptic and he revels in it.
In 2×01 Sheridan says "I hate it when you do that." And Kosh says "Good."
Morden got smuggled past the gate. He had an arrangement with a security officer to get him in for a handful of diamonds. He then killed the guard and used the diamonds to pay another guy to poison Adira.
For me DS9 and Voyager t*rture r*pe m*rder*d the Trek franchise.
If you hate Trek those are the series for you.
If your brother hasn't watched both series, I could chalk his "opinion" up to mere ignorance. If he has and has his "opinion" . . . I dunno. Did he eat lead paint as a kid or the doctor drop him on his head during delivery or something like that? Without spoilers, B5 tells a whole story. DS9, aside from ripping off a large number of components of B5, is mostly episodic, rather than long-form storytelling; and yet tries to pretend to be long-form storytelling. Did you feel sad for a ship when you watched DS9? Didn't think so.
The scene where Sheridan stands up to Kosh is great partly because it's surprising. Up to this point in fantasy and sci-fi, everyone just listens to the "wise guiding force," but this would have been like Frodo getting into a brawl with Gandalf…and you realize Sheridan is absolutely right.
9:58 yep you are a nerd.
But atleast the stereo type weed nerd everyone knows atleast one of from work, school or from neighborhood😂😂😂
After watching DS9…I need a root beer
After watching B5…double shot of whiskey…now! Damn, it still hurts.
In case you didn’t know, the actor who plays Kosh-as-Sheridan’s-father in this episode (as well as his actual father in “Severed Dreams”) is the late great Rance Howard, father of Ron Howard. grandfather of Bryce Dallas Howard.
Jason Ironheart is out of the game. He passed the rim. Just like the technomages.
B5 is DS9 light? I would rather say, DS9 is B5 light…
Excellent episode to prove just the initial point. This is how you write a show. If only the hacks these days paid attention.
It’s very fundamentally wrong. B5 came first and DS9 tried to copy it and totally failed. B5 actually has a story arc throughout the entire series where DS9 doesn’t have a story arc that covers the series, DS9 is just a bunch of sitcoms that happen to take place on a space station.
It's the opposite. DS9 is B5 lite. There was no way DS9 was ever going to be daring enough to try a 5 year story arc. Just wasn't ever on the cards.
What a kick in the nuts this one is, yikes. Great story telling though.
DS9 is Babylon 5 Lite
You need to speed these reactions up – stop making us wait so long lol!
