That’s what I get for actually getting into the show 4 years ago.

For fans of Babylon 5 as well as South Park, there’s Babylon Park! http://www.babylonpark.com/video-archive.htm

If you’ve seen this before, my bad. If not, hope you enjoy it.

And I didn’t create it.

Just a little note to Summer – don’t know if anyone else has run into this problem, but the link to the Sevylon 5 cartoons doesn’t work for me. However, I went back to the Sev main page and browsed through to find a link that worked. This is the one I found: http://cartoons.sev.com.au/Sev-Space/Sevylon-5/

Feel free to confirm this. Great Episode 51! Thanks

In response to the analysis of “Soul Mates” and how it seemed to you that the delivery of the statuette by Stoner and its use by Mariel Mollari didn’t really work:

My take on it that makes it work for me is this…by this time we all know that G’kar and Londo are always spying on one another and will do almost anything to gain an advantage over the other or hopefully eliminate him. One of G’Kar’s spies (he must have many on the station) in the Zocalo notices this statuette and tells G’Kar. G’Kar of course knows at this point that Mollari’s wives are on station and that they are quite upset with him, so he contacts Mariel indirectly, through one of his spies, to tip Mariel off about the trap…without letting Mariel know that he is directly behind the conspiracy. Then Mariel buys the statuette, gives it to Londo. Then after Londo’s unexpected recovery, G’Kar arranges to meet Mariel and they each do a delicate dance around one another, both knowing that they had conspired with each other but not directly admitting it to the other…each wanting to take the measure of the other to see whether one of them will try to use this to their advantage over the other for blackmail or other sinister end. It’s a tangled web of intrigue to be sure, but this is both of these characters’ speciality.

To give you a peek behind the scenes, I voted to dump it, but (fortunately) was overruled by Summer and Jeffrey. And Pat’s interview about the Penny Lane Xmas program was actually recorded in the midst of all that insanity. Go figure.

Evidently the tongue-in-cheek nature of my voicemail didn’t translate too well after traveling through the phone lines. If I’d been in the position of trying to perform that interview, I probably would have thrown it out as a useless mess — but that would have been a mistake, because there was a glorious sort of surreal, train-wrecky goodness to it. I’m glad you decided to run it.
