Summer and Gary chat with Carrie Dobro (Dureena Nafeel)!

We get a minor "Thor" report from Bret, who totally forgot to keep an eye out for the JMS cameo, but he liked the movie. Then came the flood of voicemail... Source

Babylon Podcast #237: Ruling From the Tomb (Crusade)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/05/19

Tim, Summer and Bret discuss "Ruling From the Tomb", written by Peter David. Tim has questions about the execution of this episode's premise. While he's good with the cropping up of doomsday cults, the abundance of coincidental meetings and convergent threads doesn't sit well with him. There are pieces of this episode that were changed or removed between earlier drafts and the final shooting, and details about those are in Crusade: Other Voices, Vol 2, and we can't wait for Peter David to join us

Feedbackapalooza: Telepath smackdown? Either way, this episode seems to be chock full of questions from Adam from start to finish. Source

Babylon Podcast #235: Interview with Marjean Holden

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/04/27

Tim and Summer chat with Marjean Holden, our honorary co-host for this episode! Marjean talks about her ventures into writing for television and film, her love of the science fiction genre, the anticipation of experiencing Crusade's story shift after they'd found the cure but would be chased down to prevent them from distributing it, and the loss of not being able to follow and finish that story. Let's start the rumor mill ourselves: Marjean Holden is on board for that secret Crusade miniseries

Babylon Podcast #234: Feedback From Down the Street

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/04/22

We have more voicemail from you guys to go through! Tim and Summer also lament the fact that they completely forgot to ask David Allen Brooks about the pak'ma'ra porn gag. Kudos to Gary's April Fool's Joke that he posted here... but be wary of payback in kind, sweetheart! Source

Babylon Podcast #233: Interview with David Allen Brooks

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/04/16

Tim and Summer chat with David Allen Brooks, about how he got into acting, how he approached the character of Max Eilerson, the research into being a scientist and archaeologist, the differences he observed between working on a science fiction drama compared to "just another" police procedural, the fans of Max, where Max's story arc might have taken him, and much more.

Babylon Podcast #232: The Path of Sorrows (Crusade)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/04/07

Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer are joined by The Jason Davis and Edmund Boys to discuss "The Path of Sorrows". Questions abound because of this episode, about the pasts of our crew, about how many more secrets may have been revealed to us over time, and much more. Jason talks about how this episode was one of the points of contention between TNT and JMS because it was character building (just not how they asked for it?), and more. Source

Babylon Podcast #231: Patterns of the Soul (Crusade)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/04/01

Deep Geeking: Tim and Summer discuss "Patterns of the Soul", an episode that gives us our first glimpse of conspiracies and ulterior motives that may be exploiting opportunities brought about after the introduction of the plague to the human population. They discuss what types of patterns the episode title might refer to, and how the various secrets being guarded by each party involved in this encounter are related, in how they color everyone's actions.

Babylon Podcast #230: Tangentopalooza

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/03/24

We have a report from Danny in Adelaide about Armageddon Expo! He talks about Pat Tallman's appearance and a Skype call from JMS. The big news is about the Sherlock Holmes Arthur Conan Doyle-Harry Houdini story that JMS sold to Dreamworks, and that there are whispers in the dark about a Babylon 5 project broached by WB to The Great Maker.

Babylon Podcast #229: The Palooza of Wine and Candy

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/03/17

Summer has Stone Levitation, Bret has Jack Daniels and Diet Coke, and Tim is drinking red wine and eating M&Ms. That explains a lot about Tim, doesn't it? It's Feedback Time Source

Babylon Podcast #228: Each Night I Dream of Home...

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/03/10

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Bret chat about "Each Night I Dream of Home", an episode that ties into the importance of Excalibur's mission, and shows us just how complex the task of decoding the Drakh plague virus truly is. Tim recalls how he originally disliked this episode, because of what he thought was the "stunt casting" of characters from the original series to hook old fans; and Summer disagrees that it was "stunt casting" solely to garner ratings for TNT.

Babylon Podcast #227: The Well of Forever (Crusade)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/02/24

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Bret chat about "The Well of Forever", and there's several points of disagreement on the content of the episode, and it could quite possibly be from either some lack of perception on our parts, or from looking to hard for a complex answer when it's really much more simple than we think.

Babylon Podcast #226: Visitors from Down the Street...

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/02/12

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Bret chat about "Visitors from Down the Street", an episode filled with snark and more than wink and nod towards The X-Files. Time has changed Tim's perception of this episode, and now Bret wishes he'd done his homework and watched it! And where do captains of deep space exploration vessels get their supply of Hawaiian shirts? Inquiring minds want to know... Source

Babylon Podcast #225: Feedbackapalooza 2: Palooza Harder

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/02/03

Continuing the Feedback marathon, Tim, Summer and Bret discuss their alcoholic beverage selections for the evening. And Summer has kettle corn, so between salty, sweet, and hoppy, we're all ready to go. Listener Voicemails: Despite what you hear, this episode is not the Neilapalooza, and no, we still don't know why Bret became fixated on Corwin having a mullet. We really should have talked about the Booze of Babylon 5, shouldn't we have? Source

Babylon Podcast #224: Feedbackapalooza

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/01/19

Tim and Summer are growing concerned, because we don't have any solid ideas for our 6th season opening yet. Hopefully, Gary and Edmund have been plotting mischieviousness on our behalf. Listener Voicemails: Time to catch up on the voicemails from the end of 2010!! And we are happy to hear the new voices chiming in after all this time! So how much alcohol will it take to get Bret to sing for us? Do we really want to find out? Source

Babylon Podcast #223: The Long Road (Crusade)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2011/01/06

In this episode, Tim and Summer discuss "The Long Road", the games technomages play, whether or not dragons should still invoke a primal fear in space-faring races, and more. Tim has a different appreciation for this episode when watched in the current order, and Summer likes how much better some of the character relationships have developed in this current viewing order.

Babylon Podcast #222: The Memory of War (Crusade)

The Babylon Podcast ·

2010/12/10

Deep Geeking: Tim, Summer and Bret discuss "The Memory of War", and this one, in Tim's estimation, disappoints. Talk ranges from the music matching the dramatic sequences and falling short on the action sequences, the quality of the CG scenes, and throwing the flag on gratuitous use of slow motion effects. Discussion also touches upon the disappointment at the collapse of the show due to the complex situation surrounding Crusade on TNT and later on SciFi Channel. Source

Babylon Podcast #221: Music and Feedback

The Babylon Podcast ·

2010/12/04

A few weeks back on Twitter via @babylonpodcast, Summer expressed her disappointment at finding dead space where the b5crusade.com website used to be. This happened after 2am, and she happened to notice a tweet from Bear McCreary from earlier that evening expressing his excitement about his Human Target compositions... which led Summer to wonder aloud how cool it could be to have Bear score whatever new B5 project Warner Bros has been having secret talks with JMS about. Ah, to dream a little
