Babylon 5: By Any Means Necessary

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.

Which means their whole purpose is up for question.
Yeah. Just really drives home Chuck's pirrinium comment.

Watched another B5 review! My thoughts.

So hilarious the dead guy was still moving. Way to misdiagnose that one, lady. :lol: But seriously, fire that actor or that director. Overall, I guess this episode reminds me of DS9's "Bar Association." It's a union tale, and I'm always in favor of those. Plus naming the policy after Rush Limbaugh made me chuckle. One final note is... JMS... drove his wife... hard on this? Hope he wasn't abusive, but given how stiff and uptight his female characters have been, I... could see that being the case, honestly... but I don't even know the guy, so can't judge.

Onto the next one! :)

Or he just wanted to avoid any sense of nepotism, since nepotism is something that is all over Hollywood.

The "driving her hard" line has me shackles up given it's a man and his wife, but... as I said, I'll refrain judgment. Hopefully she didn't get paint all over his Marcus Fenix costume. :lol:

Don't worry it wasn't like that at all, JMS hates nepotism and thus held her submission to a very high standard to avoid any hypocrisy on his part (he is also not a fan of that either as his response to getting an award showed).
