To be clear, CBS refusing to air Stephen Colbert’s interview with Texas Democrat James Talarico after they received threats from the MAGA regime to bury it isn’t only censorship, it’s full blown fascism.
Propaganda CBS aren’t a reliable news source, they are state tv.

Gotta love that Streisand Effect.
If the FCC hadn't leaned on CBS and CBS on Colbert, they would have aired a completely inoffensive and uninteresting interview with a Texas candidate to little effect.
Now it has international attention.

They're scared to death of losing Texas. BRAVO, Stephen Colbert for calling out their bullshit.

Not that I hold a grudge or anything....
I love that they convinced Straczynski to return, and the first thing he did was write about how much they'd ruined Janine, and made it canon to the show 😆
Those changes that the network mandated for the show was ridiculous. IIRC they wanted to relegate Winston to 'the driver' and remove Ray.

You just have to feel how it will change, there's not one way to do it. It's a kind of dance...you change a step, or do a misstep, and you just sort of intuit the next step and fold it in so it doesn't look like you changed anything. At least that's how I handled it.
@straczynski.bsky.social you've mentioned in many places that for Babylon 5, you always had a way for a main character to depart the show in case the actor needed to leave. how did you manage the impact this would have on the plot and ensure the story could still be told?

This right here is the peril and glory of social media; you say something about something and the person that actually knows something about something might just stop by and correct you.

The problem here is not dissembling, it's inaccuracy on your part. Sinclair fishing was the projected end for a potential SEQUEL SERIES, Babylon Prime. The "reveal" you cite is my published original breakdown for the TWO series; in that outline B5 the series ends just as I said: with the explosion.
J. Michael Straczynski famously said he knew before filming began exactly how Babylon 5 would end, and what the final shot would be. He later revealed the shot would be of an unrevealed character sitting by a lake, fishing.
That was not how the show ended. Creators dissemble, and plans change.

Honest question: if geeks hate Batman & Robin, don’t rewatch it, and only use it as a punchline, why does it outweigh Falling Down when judging Joel Schumacher?

Go easy on Maher. He's just trying to unify the country, and I think he's succeeding admirably. Both the left and the right think he's an insufferable douche.
