Oh, so David Gerrold was with you too?  :-) (ducking and running)
Meriday-Beth is seeing nods to b5 all over the place, but honestly,
with the possible exception of the teddy bear, I didn't really spot
anything.  Star Trek references were, of course, all over the place.

Serious question though.  I've noticed that you talk about the the
stars and the major guest stars rather propriatarily over the years,
but the minor ones like Robin Sachs you generally don't say anything
about.  Does this mean that you really wern't involved with choosing
those sorts, that's what Slader and her replacement did?

No, I was directly involved with the casting of just about everybody on the
show.  But when you work with someone day in and day out, you naturally develop
more of a familiarity than with guest stars, even when they do make several
appearances, as with Robin.
