Babylon 5: TKO

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

So Looking up Grail since you guys keep answering in rhetorical questions.

I thought you were talking about the episode with the guy who thinks he's king Arthur. Thats a Good episode thank you kindly

Grail has David Warner as a guy looking for sad legendary cup, The Guy who worked on every Babylon station but the Station always met its tragic end when he left so he stays on Babylon 5 to prevent the Jinx an Even a giant CGI monster

... and I have absolutely no recollection of this episode... an episode with David Warner in it!!!

That is either as sign of a forgettable episode so bleh its not worth remembering or an episode so bad my memory refuses to acknowledge it

You forgot, it also has Larry from Newhart as a crime boss. (Larry as in "Hi, I'm Larry, this is my brother Darryl and this is my other brother Darryl.")

Correct me if I'm wrong... isn't the rabbi the guy who played Worf's father?! I'd never forget that gorgeous accent anywhere! 8-)

Yes that is Theodore Bikel who played Worf's dad. Here is his imdb entry for confirmation https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000942/?ref_=tt_cl_t_15
