Onwards!

I've been traveling/dealing with heavy family stuff, so I've been posting my B5 reaction posts locked to avoid having to deal with moderating outside my flist. However, I never really meant to post my whole tour de show locked, so now that things have calmed down a bit, I went back and unlocked a bunch of them tonight.

Rules of engagement on these posts:

1. Please do not spoil me for future episodes, including hinting at future developments, characterwise, relationshipwise, castwise, or otherwise. If you aren't sure, please use rot13, the html details tag, or otherwise hide it.

2. If you want to debate with me about things you think I'm misinterpreting, please wait until I've seen the whole show. Part of the fun of watching someone liveblog a first time viewing is that you know more than they do - they don't have all the context you do, and they're still figuring out how to feel about things, especially on a show this twisty where events get recontextualized a lot.

Thank you!! Meanwhile I'm up to 4x17 and having an absolutely fantastic time. I don't think I've enjoyed a show this much in AGES.

I remain really happy about this state of affairs. For the family stuff, *hugs*

I'm still watching just one or two episodes a week -- Saturday night TV coziness -- so you're now a full season ahead of me. :-D

Thank you for labeling all the chatter so well, so that I don't spoil myself, either! I know some things about the final two seasons, mainly through fannish osmosis, but those things are almost all meta things, not in-story things.

The thought of Avon as a message board moderator is hilarious!! Oh, the sarcasm, the insults, the downright snark of it all! :D :D

((Sorry RL is very very hard right now *hugs*))

But I think hate in a "love-to-hate" way; he'd reach deep for every drop of savage, biting wit to fill each answer and moderation decision. He'd revel in cutting down each commenter, the commenters would cower before him, and the lurkers would watch gleefully from the sidelines while munching popcorn. Two of those groups would enjoy themselves!

And Vila wouldn't be able to stop himself from anonymously commenting inane comments and such like just to purposely annoy Avon! Then sitting back to munch on popcorn and watch the fireworks go off, lol!!

Woe to him if Avon ever found out, though! :D
