Babylon Podcast #181: Darkness Ascending (Season 5)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2009/11/27

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Jeffrey discuss many of the consquences and the subtexts in "Darkness Ascending". We argue for quite a bit about the nature of Garibaldi's dream, how much was dream and how much was or wasn't influenced by Lyta's telepathic curiosity (and whether or not that itself was real or dream), and talk a bit more about Lennier and his mission, and of the telepath DNA deal between Lyta and G'Kar.

Babylon Podcast #177: Meditations on the Abyss...

The Babylon Podcast ·

2009/10/23

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Jeffrey contemplate "Meditations on the Abyss". Examinations range from speculations on why G'Kar may have initially wanted his book to only be published after his death and the possible nature of the responsibility for the spirituality and spiritual explorations of his potential students/followers; to the nature of rationalization when deciding between doing the "right" thing and the "true" thing in the cases of both Findell and Lennier; and even a little bit on

Feedbackapalooza: Tim, Summer and Jeffrey respond to lots of voicemail! We really are going to have to have a special follow-up Geeking on "Day of the Dead", aren't we? I never knew this episode was so polarizing amongst the fans, apparently moreso than Purple-Green! Source

The Babylon Podcast ·

2009/09/09

Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss "Phoenix Rising", and the beginning of the fallout from Byron's death and the resulting uprising of rogue telepaths against the Psi Corps. The emotional impact of Byron's death on the free telepaths, and the emotional impact of the manner of the rogues' death on Bester are apparent, so Summer likes the payoff much better than some elements of the story leading up to the conclusion.

The Babylon Podcast ·

2009/08/13

Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer disagree on "Day of the Dead", and boy, do we chat about THAT difference of opinion! Written by Neil Gaiman, it's the first produced episode not written by JMS since Season 2 (since "Knives"?).
