       Thanks...I imagine the wait won't be easy, but it'll be worth it.

Hello, Joe;

I and a few others are wondering why you didn't show any of the time leading up
to Delenn observing a sleeping John in "Shadow Dancing."  Or did you and just
run out of time to fit it in?

I'd think the awkwardness and/or discussion as John tries to fall asleep with
Delenn present would be refreshing and entertaining to see from a (admittedly
biased) viewer's standpoint. :-)

I'm curious, did you plan to show more there and just couldn't fit it in, given
the enormous nature of the episode?

Thanks,

  -- Brent

       Basically...we've got 44 or so minutes...we could've shown the whole
battle as shown, or shown Sheridan trying to sleep.  One would have to go to
make room to include the other.

                                                                       jms


 [ Summary: A new fan of the show loved "And the Rock Cried Out, No
   Hiding Place" and "Shadow Dancing" and can't wait for "Za'Ha'Dum."
   He thinks the only presence of JMS and B5 in general is amazing. ]

       Thanks.  The online aspect gives it an almost family feel somedays.
Vaguely dysfunctional, but what can one do...

 [ Summary: Asks why the White Star made its own jump point to leave B5
   space when a perfectly good jump gate was nearby.  Wonders if it might
   have been because it costs B5 energy to use its jump gate. ]

       And then, there are just times you do it 'cause it feels more dramatic
that way....
