Saw this, great review as normal for his B5 coverage but its a shame he's not going to be sticking with B5. Only three more and he's going to drop it.

Yeah. I didn't have the heart to type that in the opening post. I really loved how Chuck gets philosophical (Atheist JMS appreciates religion) and goes deep into the metaphors (Narn/Centauri conflict relates to the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand?) when discussing B5. I thought Chuck was at his best here, possibly due to the already strong material that is Babylon 5. I am going to miss this when its over.

Going to see about what kind of donation I can do to keep him on B5. I don't really care if its only one every other month or so, but I don't really want to see it go away.

Pity... I would like to see him sum up Mollari and G'Kar.

I'd like to see him sum up the whole series, but there are just too many trekies compared to Fivers.

Fuck that. Any Trekkie worth his salt should at least kinda like it.

Mollari and G'Kar's interactions was always been my personal favorites, even by themselves.
