"Sinclair not Sinclair"??? Interesting... to quote your editor "Bwhahahahahaha!" (Not laughing at you, but with you. I promise!) :-)

kris

i told you series is prophetic... your gonna see a lot of stuff that will make you go "really?! we went over this!!"

Jeff

I hope someone (Xander?) lets Angela know when she needs to pause watching the series to instead watch the relevant movies! Don't want to watch them too early because of spoilers, but don't want to wait till after the series as that lessens their impact.

Marshall Scott Poland

I wish I had a podcast, because I would love to have a long sit down and discuss some of these things with you. I have thoroughly enjoyed, yet again, watching your perspective on this show.

Jeff

Ok cool. I'm about to start on Expanse 6.1 (condolences over Alex) so I'm about 3 years behind on your channel changes.

Over50Gamer

In case no one has told you yet, Lenier (sp?) is played by Bill Mumy, who is most famous for playing young Will Robinson in the original Lost In Space TV series.

John the Rambling Scriblerian

I think one of the tings that really drew me into this series, years and years ago, was how in depth the characters were and how quickly they conveyed that depth. Because of this, I fell in love with all the characters, even the "bad guys". The more I cheered for a character, or conversely the more I hated a character, the more this all pointed to the absolute top notch writing this show had. Also, "He's got a Gorbachev going on there..." Not gonna lie, I snorted out my breakfast tea the laughter came so hard and unexpected!

Jeff Ratcliff

Lennier - Billy Mumy from "Lost in Space" and "The Twilight Zone".

funnylilgalreacts

With the whole cherry tomato “new life/marriage” ceremony thing in this… I have zero theories👀 ZERO 👀 NONE👀

The Casual Deathworlder

You've already been told that Lennier was played by Bill Mummy who was the original Will Robinson from Lost in Space, but one thing they left out... If you are a fan of the old radio show Doctor Demento then you are familiar with a song called "Fish Heads". That was written and sung by a teenage Bill Mummy. // Also..."Theory Time" - Inarticulate screaching from someone trying not to give spoilers... :) // And that punch...I think I need to hire your editor. That was great :)

Chase Lonnergan

Which, technically, makes him the highest rank of sci-fi royalty to act on the show. Remember, without the popularity of Lost in Space, Star Trek might not have ever been given a chance.

john

One of the most fun things about this show for the first time is theorizing what’s going to happen. I look forward to hearing more. 😁 And props to the editor for the comedic timing. That punch effect was hilarious.

William Wood

I love watching you theorise. Wether you’re right or wrong. you are way more insightful than I was . Fortunately for me the quality of this show was so good I was engaged in it fully for its run, and loved mysteries. I find some series too obvious now and tend to be disappointed if I figure it out, I prefer twists that are believable but they blindside you. I don’t think any sci-fi show has matched this, though some are close.

James Fleischman

Angela is lucky to be watching this in the right order and to get to make all these crazy theories. I started in like season 4 and bought "In the Beginning" on vhs before I even saw an episode of season 1.

Cody Thomas Sinclair

I missed all the theorycrafting that happened back in the day when it was on, so getting to see you do it is going to be so much fun!

Jbb

I have said it before, saying it again. JMS is not afraid of politics or religion. It also amazes me how much of this show is relevant today. Sinclair introduced as many representatives of religion as he could, even including an atheist. In this scene there were clearly over a hundred representations. There was a recent list of religions published, and it only has 31 classifications.

Firefly24601

When this hits YouTube the debates over religion will be soooooooo FUN...

MertzRocks

two 'n's in Lennier. And Chase is 100% right too. Lost in Space >helped< pave Star Trek's way, along with some of Gene's previous work.

MertzRocks

Lots of peeps forget he was in The Twilight Zone too! edit: Elsewhere in this thread I learned he was in other shows that I watched as a kid, and didn't realize he was in. 🤘😎🎸

Brian Pickering

So, I'm just going to give one reaction, you may take it as a comment on whichever portion of this video it fits. "SQUEEEEEE" :-) Looking to the next video before I've even watched all of this one! Oh, and if you think these first four episodes have been strong, consider this: Many critics of the series think that the first half of the first season is weak. Which is common to many series, where the actors are first getting "into character." Just saying... you're in for the ride of your life with the rest of the show.

Brian Pickering

One other comment... the series bears re-watching well, especially because you'll start picking up on little bits and pieces, here and there, that are leading to... something. There are tidbits cached in S1 episodes that don't pay off until S4 (I can't remember if any go all the way to S5).

Kthulhu

I'm actually currently doing a rewatch, and I'm using the Lurker's Guide Master Episode List order. It's not a BIG difference, but a few things do make a bit more sense.

Natalie

Na'toth is such a better character than Ko D'ath. Ko D'ath was a fun idea, but I like the idea of G'Kar having his own Ivanova. She's a total badass.

TheUndeadFish

Aside from the deeper aspects of this episode, it has a lot of funny and enjoyable moments. I'm glad to see how much you enjoyed it. And so to add more some fun details, courtesy of J. Michael Straczynski: * Regarding Bill Mumy (Lennier): "At one point, as they're leaving camera, Delenn says to Lennier, who has just arrived at the station, "Now tell me of home; I have been away far too long." His ad-libbed off-camera response: "Beatlemania is back." (Another ad-lib for another shot: "Minimalls...they're everywhere," and "Well, we just got Pizza Hut and cable.") " * "The "stay put" line was ad-libbed by Andreas, because the crawfish kept crawling off the table." * "The "fishy" song was composed by Christopher Franke specifically for that scene. I told him I wanted sort of a Narnish Gilbert and Sullivan, and that's what we got."

JBK405

JMS is famously an atheist in real life, but it's said that he came by his atheism "honestly": Meaning it came after long and deep thoughts about religion (Both the religion he was raised in, and also other religions he encountered). Not just a blanket rejection of how he was raised. So despite not believing in any religion, his work always shows a very deep respect for various faiths instead of a contempt for something "fake". But he's also admitted that he made sure that the atheist was introduced first, and that he was the "best dressed". Because hey, it is still his show. It's fascinating to listen through your theories based on what we know is coming. I'm not saying what was right or what was wrong, but you definitely got me Reacting To Things You Said.

Tranquil_Gnome

The actress who played G'kar's last assistant has issues with the makeup. I noticed last episode she had blue eyes. Narns tend to have red tinted eyes or close to that. Not sure if she quit or they ended her run after the one episode. To be fair, Narns and Minbari have heavy prosthetics. Not an easy gig. G'kar's replacement assistant is fantastic.

John Willis

This is a perfect “theory time with Angela” show. Unlike many other shows, it really does try to pay off its little moments down the road, and rarely is it exactly what you thought would happen. The only change I’d love to see is for you to do 2 B5s a week. Love that you picked this show!

David Boyd

Bill Mumy, who plays Lenier, is a legend in the sci-fi community. He started out as a child actor whose big break came when he was cast as Will Robinson in the original Lost In Space TV show. He also scored a lot of cameos in notable shows of that era, like Bewitched and I dream of Jeanie. When we heard he was joining Babylon 5, many of us were excited to see him come back to his sci-fi roots.

Ryan Fisher

Coffee snorted out of my nose on that one!!

MertzRocks

It's gonna be quite the pony ride... 😏

MertzRocks

Oh yeah, Julie Brown kicks ass; and she knocked her role outta the park. (I just saw a reaction to The Sandlot so I'm in a sort of baseball frame of mind lol)

MertzRocks

Truly, just one reaction a week for this can make it a bit of a long slog, but I'm still down for it!

Ray (Fanporium)

You mentioning "different makeup lady" reminded me of something. Do you know what Pam Beasley and Londo Molari have in common? Kim Ferry, hair and makeup stylist for both shows. She used to live across the street from my friend Shawna, who did the costumes for Firefly. Delightful lady!

Ray (Fanporium)

It's just religion. It's not like it's something super controversial, like having a positive opinion of a Star Wars show. lol

Nathan Cline

The actor who plays Lennier had a famous scifi role as a kid. He played young Will Robinson in the original Lost In Space.

funnylilgalreacts

I think that’s actually the thing I hate about when religion isn’t anything that I’m watching. I can’t just have my opinion and say it out loud. I’m wrong and that’s all there is to it 😅😂

Jeff Ratcliff

He also played a small part in one episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

Captain DeCounting

Watching you do theory time is hilarious, only because I'm in on the joke. Keep in mind , the whole series was plotted out in the beginning, details aside. All the major points are clean and satisfying because it's already known to the author. JMS brought all the best of long form anime and plot development to a US audience with this piece. Just Master Class storytelling. No spoilers, you will always appreciate the payoff on the story arcs, you are the kind of viewer this series was written for. Chew on this all you want, it's the best part of Babylon 5, just the story unfolding. I know you're going to enjoy all the episodes and seasons to come. CHEERS!!!

Josef Schiltz

Angela. I notice Tu'Pari gives off the vibes of the original to incarnations of The Master, not like the John Simm version which was, frankly, over-the-top compared to those original two. Roger Delgado and Anthony Ainley were quiet spoken, Roger could be even chatty, when not being malevolent, Anthony was more catty! I think you'd enjoy them both.

MertzRocks

I agree: This was made for you, Angela 😘❤️‍🔥 ENJOY!

Eirik Myhr

It’s actually quite staggering how high the quality of these first episodes are, and the level of character depth we already get. I loved season 1 from the first time I watched it on DVD in the early 2000’s. I didn’t know that it would only get better! 😄

Eirik Myhr

Regarding Delenn’ makeup and appearance, you’re not wrong: It went through a big change between The Gathering and Season 1. 😅

Wild_Lee_Coyote

You would probably like the Babylon Podcast. Not only do they do a DEEP dive on every single episode. They sent into all the other properties like the Crusade and the books even doing a review of the cookbook. They also had cast and crew interviews, including an interview with the infamous Snack Man. It’s a great podcast.

Sergio Meira

That last scene, with Earth belief systems... so beautiful, isn't it? Maybe I'm just a crybaby, but my eyes tear up when I see it. What a great idea! Well done, Sinclair. Well done, JMS.

Pajander

Regarding the Xon, I just assumed that they died out at least thousands of years ago, so current Centauri wouldn't really care about that much more than we care about Neanderthals going extinct. Like yeah it wasn't great, but nobody alive is gonna have any personal connection to that.
