Babylon 5: The Lost Tales
I've known about this for some time now, but I haven't "geeked out" about them yet because I'm not quite sure what to make of them.
For fans of Babylon 5, JMS is working on "Babylon 5: The Lost Tales". These are new self-contained stories in the Babylon 5 universe. It sounds like they will be about the length of a TV episode, maybe a bit longer. They will be direct-to-DVD, although there's a chance a TV network might air them.
I think I'm very excited about this. New B5 stuff! Direct-To-DVD doesn't thrill me, though.One of my good buddies has a blogger site she's put together with news n' updates about this new B5 thing.

I can only conclude that I'm paying off karma at a vastly accelerated rate.
Trust Ivanova, trust yourself, anybody else: shoot them.
"Sleep well?"
"Sleeping is not the problem. Waking up -- that is a problem. I've always had hard time getting up when it's dark outside."
"But in space it's always dark."
"I know, I know."
"Good morning. The time is o-four-thirty, Earth-standard, Wednesday, August 3rd, 2258. Personal log shows no outstanding appointments. Shall I download station-logs for past six hours?"
"Sure, grab it, store it, shove it."
"Clarification?"
"Never mind. Why does my mouth always taste like old carpet in the morning?"
"Unknown. Checking medical logs."
"You will have to wear a cast. And it's gonna hurt."
"Swell. Ouch."
"I can give you something for the pain."
"Oh, great, *now* you can give me something for the pain. Where were you when I was going through puberty?"
"Ivanova is always right. I will listen to Ivanova. I will not ignore Ivanova's recommendations. Ivanova is God. And if this ever happens again, Ivanova will personally rip your lungs out. Babylon Control out. [Sigh] Civilians. [Looking up] Just kidding about the God part -- no offense."
"Ambassador, do you really want to know what's going on down there?"
"Yes, absolutely!"
"Boom. Boom boom boom. Boom boom. Boom! Have a nice day!"
"I think you just hit a nerve. Vorlons must owe them money or something."
"This also tells they understand our language. They are just not willing to speak to us using that."
"Who knew they were French?"
"Zog? What do you mean zog? Zog what? Zog yes, zog no?"
"It's leaving. My guess is zog means no."
"Like hell. I am not letting them leave here without saying yes."
"Really? And how do you propose stopping them? Perhaps a big red and white sign with the word 'Stop' on it? I'll put a bucket on my head and pretend to be the ancient Vorlon god Booji."
"That's it!"
"Fine, I'll get a bucket."
"Did I ever tell you that you are very cute for a Minbari? Even you are cute, in an annoying sort of way. Everybody's cute! Everybody's cute! Even me. But in purple.. I'm stunning!"
