In the case of S2E3, this is an outbreak of violence between groups all over the station, rather than a case of one family dealing with a religious/medical issue without it affecting others. At least, not in the same way.

TheAardvark posted:but then they made a big deal about how hard it was for him to get the ingredients for Bagna Cauda! shipping an entire bike up there must have been insanely expensive !!!! Not necessarily. I'm sure mass factors into it somewhat, but I would assume shipping some perishable foods would be more expensive, as you would want it shipped very quickly, or in an appropriately chilled state. A bike is just another load of machinery

TheAardvark posted:S2E12: As others have said, B5 attracted a lot of people looking for a new life. If memory serves, Brown sector wasn't finished, which is why it is largely the way it is. Some of the lurkers in down below were people helping to build B5 that weren't able to find the means to leave. Add to this, as a neutral station in a fairly out of the way place, you have a magnet for organised crime to join the party. Trivia regarding down below denizens, 'Lurkers' were named as a reference to fans on the net. JMS being Extremely Online and all.

TheAardvark posted:S2E18 - Confessions and Lamentations This was intentional. JMS wanted to make sure people would be familiar with the Markab, so it would be more meaningful when they all die, where it wouldn't if it was a race we had hardly ever seen before. I'm looking at you, Dilgar

Powered Descent posted:s01e10 - Believers I wonder if that shows how TV has changed since the early nineties. JMS made a big point on usenet at the time about how most shows would have found a way to have the kid alive and well by the end of the episode and how he wanted to subvert that. If memory serves, he was trying to go for a similar feel to the Twilight Zone episode 'The Cold Equations'.

Background on 1x17: I believe the actor playing Zayn had recently gone through a breakup and he was pretty much channeling it into his performance

Chevy Slyme posted:The gift shop plot, as I understand it, was a way to sell IRL merch, but not the way you think. Production stuff regarding the bear. The bear was a gift to JMS from Peter David. JMS hated it, which is why it was spaced. Apparently David got his own back in an episode of Space Cases where someone asks “who would space a bear”

And as cheap as it may have looked, CG allowed the show to be far more dynamic that many shows of the time. The action and variety of the shots were, imo, better than many of the shots in most contemporary Trek episodes to that point, even if those looked better quality
