Babylon 5: “And so, it begins.”
As today is the 20th anniversary of the premier of Babylon 5: The Gathering, the pilot that marked the beginning of a six-year fascination for me, I thought I’d share some things about the show you might not know. But first…I really loved B5. I’m not looking to start an argument about how good a…

Geek & Sundry
As a geek in the Age of Geeks, every day there is some new nerdy thing offered up for my amusement. Links, images, movies, tv shows; the dork train is pulling out of the station and everyone is trying to get on board. A lot of it is bad, no denying. A small portion is…

What I’m Watching: Update

There has been a fair-to-moderate amount of hullabaloo surrounding television lately; new shows, new seasons of old shows, cancelled shows…

Geek Nuggets for July 28
I don’t really have a nice, cohesive post for today. So instead, I’m popping back in here throughout the day to add ideas, observations and amusing anecdotes as they occur to me. Some might call that lazy blogging…and yeah, they’re probably right. But feel free to throw your own geeky observations and snippets in the…

Fanboy Confessional
I’ll be honest, when I first saw Fanboy Confessional commercials pop up on Space, I rolled my eyes. It looked like yet another show lampooning the more extreme members of our fandom. But however badly conceived and executed, shows about geeks don’t come around very often. So I locked it in to the PVR, and…
