Babylon 5, season 1, episode 3, "Born to the Purple"

[officersun524]

It's my day off...what to do with all that time.  After having exhausted my Tina Fey & Amy Poehler are awesome searches, and accidentally shutting off "The Office", I decided it was time for some B5.

Let's see what's in store, shall we?

**delighted laugh**

It's such fun to read your on-the-run comments! A few scattered thoughts of my own...

G'Kar's new attaché will soon be replaced by the ineffable Na'Toth, a much better choice and the perfect foil for the ambassador: I look forward to your reactions. This lady is a bit too much... And no! You can't foist her on poor Vir! :-D

"Washed up old Republican"--is he John McCain? Ha!
LOL It's one of the many Centauri contradictions: they are a republic ruled by an Emperor...
Apart from that, some of Londo's quotes here are magnificent.
But when I look behind he mask I'm forced to wear, I see only emptinessRe: Ivanova, Garibaldi and the comms gremlin - unexpected, wasn't it

LOL! You know, part of the reason I do this is for your amusement...this being my random thoughts. These are the things I'd say during an episode...or at least think. So it's like virtual watching.

yep, I really liked this one. "Moon faced assassin of joy" has to be one of my favorite lines. and I did like the mask talk from Londo. I really like the Londo/G'Kar relationship, as well as the Garibaldi/ivanova one. I didn't think they'd pair up, and they don't need to, but I like the respect between them. They're so different too.

:-) re: centauri anatomy. Am I going to find out more than I ever wanted to know? Will this be like muppet sex? Because I'm not sure I can handle that...

YAY! for virtual watching :-)
Thankfully it does not happen in real time, because otherwise my face would betray me and possibly lead you toward some spoilers. Perish the thought! *G*

Garibaldi/Ivanova: yes, the friendship comes out of mutual respect that grows because of their differences, not despite them. You will see how these people - all of them flawed, in one way or another - will coalesce into a family, even if a bit disfunctional. Reminds you of something? ;-)

centauri anatomy. Am I going to find out more than I ever wanted to know?
YES

Will this be like muppet sex?
NO

Because I'm not sure I can handle that...
GOOD

Ok, I'm done replying like a Vorlon, sorry! :-)
Let's say that it will happen in a way that will be both amusing and ewww-worty.

((more evil giggles))
