That is a wonderful testimony. Yes, when Pope John Paul II arrived on that WYD stage in Toronto, I definitely felt a Saint had arrived.

Ambassador Delenn is actually played by the same actress in both the pilot and the series, they just changed the prostethics.

Delenn is played by Mira Furlan who played the mysterious Danielle Rousseau on Lost. I watched Babylon 5 after Lost was over, and I was mezmorized by her powerful role as Ambassador Delenn which was filmed 15 years earlier. What a legacy Mira as left us in these two great TV perfomances?

Enjoyed the first episode of the podcast,
being a big B5 fan myself it’s interesting to hear a beginners view on the pilot/series.
also when Beth & Mike said “Hello Fr” it made think of Dougle’s line in Farther Ted when he wants to watch Aliens “Aww come on Ted they’ll love it, Bishops love Sci-fi”, So am I safe in assuming it isn’t just Bishops that love Sci-fi then Fr?

I am so glad you are turned on to this series. I am currently rewatching it for the (?) at least sixth time. I look forward to hearing a new perspective on this wonderful story.
