This ought to be good! I can’t wait to hear the opinions on some of these!
❗️ Coming Friday ❗️
Well, we’ve got four stone-cold classics here … or have we?
Join @lucymccaul.bsky.social & @mattsawyer.bsky.social as we take on Ambassadors of Death, Genesis of the Daleks, Waters of Mars & Arachnids in the UK
Why does Matt make me gasp in shock? And what is Lucy’s big bugbear?

We’re currently doing 2-3 episodes every Thursday on our rewatch (it’s our one really free evening of the week). It’s nice consuming B5 at a slower pace but the downside is we’re still on S1 but next up we have Babylon Squared which is where I got the first glimpse of the much larger arc.
I started off pacing myself with the latest Babylon 5 rewatch, but on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday I watched 9 episodes each day.
Love this show more than I can say.
Hats off you you @straczynski.bsky.social!
BTW, Marcus's use of expletives is perfect. Did you catch any flack for it?

What a bloody marvellous episode to listen to while battling the M6 at rush hour this afternoon. I have to agree with @jeffgoddard.bsky.social and @frakturedboy.bsky.social about Death to the Daleks but some crazy handshakes and P45s! Some I agree with but not all…
‼️ OUT NOW ‼️
Oh, this is so much fun!
What the hell is Jim thinking for at least two of his handshakes? Will Jeff and Rod ever agree?

It was just 10 minutes of nonsense that was not needed in the slightest. Surely 9/10 3rd place would get the (not) Andra chansen spot anyway?!
No surprises in #melfest this week, the ending was messy and confusing though. The additional few mins on SVT Play are not needed, just cut back on the filler

Will I be mesmerised by Marco or traumatised by the tinsel Timelash? Enraged by an Empress or contemptuous about Chloe Webber? Only one way to find out 🤔
Hopefully my opinions won’t cause fandom to implode 🤯 🤣
