Hence your name? I do remember watching bits of it on MTV Europe of all channels, back when we shared the same MTV station as the rest of the continent... and it was a music station! It was the daftest thing I'd ever seen! Looked hilarious!

Did anyone ever watch any of the Robocop cartoon shows? I didn't see any of them at the time (I probably would have hated them at that age), but watching them as a more indulgent adult I thought they were silly, certainly, but fun in the way the Rambo cartoon was.Quote from: JudgeOiNK! on 29 May, 2015, 08:57:35 PMjust bringing some of the facts of the production and since to the table from the books I have, that's all
As we've seen in the years since, facts can change where JMS is concerned. He has become painted as a somewhat unreliable narrator by his colleagues and collaborators in the years since B5, and alternative narratives seem to end up surfacing about the B5 years, particularly the DS9 thing that he now seems eager to put to bed.QuoteBeing a fan of it back then but now pooing all over it because you've grown to dislike the creator I don't understand at all, but hey, each to their own
Babylon 5 is neither the first or last thing in the world to be tainted by a creator's later journey up their own arse.

Don't get het up at my opinionating, Oink - I freely admit I was actually a big fan of B5 at the time, but JMS' attempt to control the narrative at the time and ensuing historical revisionism - about B5 and his other projects in the years since - where he comes off as some kind of martyr to conspiracies of corruption and/or incompetence have rendered me quite happy to shit all over B5 given half a chance.

Interesting insights there Oink, didn't know any of that. Matter of fact...I thought it was always on TNT?? Memory ain't what it was....or at least I think it used to be better...I can't remember.

I think the old CRT TVs are better for watching sports since they can withstand the remote/empty beer bottle bombardment when my team inevitably fucks up. I've heard gamers say they're better for some games too, but the internet told me they're a bunch of Big Fat Sexist Monsters so you probably shouldn't listen to them.

Nothing I can do about it, but the Daily Mail have put a picture of my wife and 1yr old son on their website. The fucking Daily Mail. Grrr!
