Babylon Podcast #143: Between The Darkness and The...

The Babylon Podcast ·

2009/02/05

Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss "Between The Darkness and The Light", the episode which marks a significant turning point in the war to take back Earth from Clark's forces. The morale hit taken by Sheridan's capture is turned around by them breaking him out and rescuing him, and by the White Star fleet's destruction of Earth's advanced, Shadow-tech cruisers. Is this the first glimpse we see of Lyta's steps towards her dark, angry side? Source

The Babylon Podcast ·

2009/01/31

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and special guest Jarsto delve into "Intersections in Real Time", definitely one of the most difficult episodes to watch the first time around. The psychological abuse we see Sheridan being subjected to is also felt by the viewer because of the structure of the episode... there is no cut away to a B story, no time jumps in scene, and the relentless manipulation in pursuit of a truth they want to use for their own purposes. It's also another wonderful example of the use of

Babylon Podcast #141: Interview with Ed Wasser

2009/01/21

Interview: It's the interview almost everyone has been waiting for. Ed Wasser joins us this week, and he tells us how he thinks that the attraction to Morden comes from the undeniable allure of the mystery and the appeal of the bad guy. We also talk about how he came to Babylon 5, and how his asking for a more dangerous part led to him getting the role of Morden, his fan club and convention visits, and more. The depth and reach of Morden's plans definitely affects the entire series, even though

The Babylon Podcast ·

2008/12/20

Deep Geeking: This week, Brad and Mike join Tim, Jeffrey and Summer to discuss “The Face of the Enemy”. Summer comments on the Clark's propaganda against The Army of Light. Tim talks about how the tension level is very high due to the compressing of the story arc for season four. The gang go on to talk about cult of personality and how Clark assumes Sheridan is the center of the organization, even though he has always made it about the goal, not the man. Jeffrey reminisces on the Harlan Ellison

Babylon Podcast #139: The Exercise of Vital Powers...

The Babylon Podcast ·

2008/12/03

Deep Geeking: This week, Tim and Summer discuss "The Exercise of Vital Powers", and Tim continues to exercise his right to vital puns. Summer's appreciation of this episode comes from the complete break from what had been the traditional storytelling style in the series, and diving into old school hard-boiled pulp detective thriller territory. From Garibaldi's opening monologue, through his working for the power player who's suspiciouly far beyond his usual clientele, to his having to resist the

Feedback: This week, Tim and Summer run the gamut of the rest of the voicemail and email feedback left over from last week, all alone in the night. Summer is really jonesing for access to the Titan Magazines stash of Babylon 5 pics that they used in creating the now-defunct Babylon 5 Magazine. Yeah, those would be nice to have. Source

The Babylon Podcast ·

2008/10/30

Deep Geeking: This week, Tim and Summer delve into discussion about "No Surrender, No Retreat". We talk about the decision to ask the League to stay on the sidelines until the fighting's done; the timing of some of the events in the course of the episode; the difference between Sheridan choosing a philosophical solution to end the Shadow War versus resorting to a shooting fight to free the colonies that were under siege; and more.

2008/09/28

Deep Geeking: This week, Tim and Summer chat about "Conflicts of Interest". Tim points out how much more CGI was in this episode than usual, and appreciates how the heightened tensions were played out between characters. We discuss how much of Garibaldi's alienation of his friends is likely the result of the programming "enhancing" some of his natural tendencies, and of the machinations that both Sheridan and Delenn must start putting in motion to save their resepective homeworlds.

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Brad chat about "Lines of Communication". The funny thing is, Tim has no recollection of seeing this episode ever before. There must be a rogue PsiCop around doing mind wipes, because it's very very hard to forget the dancing Drakh scene. Source
