expecting, I think The Long Road surpassed my own personal expectations. What
a really great episode! When you said earlier that this next episode was just
a lot of fun, that was really a bit of an understatement. It was MOUNDS of
fun.
SPOILER? Maybe...

"I really like the teeth. Quite a nice touch."
"AAAUUUGH."
"Why thank you..."
Grrrrreat chemistry between Galen and Gideon. (And Allwyn was a superb guest
star. His banter with Galen during the brawl between Earthforce and the demons
is definitely CLASSIC.) I also appreciate the more fallible, human side to the
technomages - particularly Galen. Very likeable. And mysterious in a more
"G'Kar"-I-have-a-plan-I'll-tell-you-later way rather than a
"Kosh"-good-luck-ever-trying-to-figure-me-out way.
I don't think I can say enough good about that episode. My wife and I are
definitely snagged. If The Long Road is any indication of what you've got in
store for us, we're in for the long haul.
I'm writing some letters tomorrow.
Did you perchance watch The Princess Bride a couple times before writing that
episode? Galen's wit is definitely reminiscent of the dry, genius humor that
I've enjoyed over and over again from that movie.
>From next weeks preview, it looks like we get more of that as well.
Thanks heaps!

I had seen it before and was not allowed to talk about it until now.
Glad someone else liked it as much as I did. See below.
I also really liked the discussion about mentors and fathers and all
that, especially since Edward really is Peter's father. Such a nice
talk, with real feeling, for obvious reasons. They just let those two go
at it and taped what they could.

I've already written a few, and now must look through the list of
sponsors, to see which I can support and thank. Don't want to lie and
say I will buy something I know I won't, so I will only write to
sponsors where I actually do, or might consider, using the products of.

Love this movie, and have used it in examples in other genres as well.
The peanut butter in the ships controls were just as funny, if not more
so.
