I really do think that Michelle Gomez is the second best Master, because no-one is going to topple Delgado.

I know I have heard Gideon's Life Lessons before, but I can't place it. Perhaps it was from The Great Maker himself, which makes sense. Also a nice tip of the hat to Groucho, with the "who are you going to believe" line.

As a first time watcher of Crusade I was pretty pleased with this episode, if they had all been this good, well, TNT would probably still have cancelled it because there's not enough skin and violence.

Got a problem? Odds against you? Call Alwyn: 212 555 4200.

Edward Woodward! Why does Edward Woodward have so many D's in his name? Because if he didn't his name would be Ewar Woowar!

Now that I got that out of my system and I have caught up with Mark's posting schedule I'm curious to know: Why does Crusade look so cheap compared to B5? I suspect it is the lighting, B5 had a lot darker sets as a rule. Not that I get too distracted by poor production values I am a fan of Blake's 7 and original Doctor Who after all.

The One is three, Sinclair, Delenn and Sheridan, the One who was, the One who is, the One that will be. Lennier betrayed two of them. They live for the One, they die for the one. There could be no greater betrayal for a ranger.

Re: Garibaldi/Zach, that must have been a tough one for Jeff Conway having not long been clean before getting the role on B5.

Best Gilligan cut on Babylon 5 too, some of my favorite Londo and G'Kar moments in this episode.

The face G'Kar makes when Lyta says that... Priceless.

Here's the thing, if you can convince your followers to surrender to the authorities for punishment, surely you can convince them to disarm before they do so.

Love the photo of three Gaim in a row...

Hmm now I have to examine my dislike of Byron. I think it is because of a lack of humour in his character and portrayal. Even if you don't compare him directly to Marcus he doesn't fare well, just about every character/actor hits their comic beats well and Byron just... Misses. Plus we are always told how charismatic he is but I don't see it.

Like I have said before in ROT13, I would have prefered the leader of the underground railway (the Stargate kid) to have returned to lead the telepath.

Not only Prime Minister, but heir apparent to the throne. In most monarchies the position of bodyguard is a position of ultimate trust. Don't think in terms of the secret service, dedicated professionals doing their job, this is the person the future Emperor most trusts. In the Centauri Royal Court Londo can only truly trust a Narn, a member of the Kha'Ri no less. It IS a powerful sympol.
