[20:24] <webcs> There is still a chance Scifi will
pickup B5 or crusade in some capacity
[20:24] <webcs> hahaha..your kidding
[20:24] <RingSongs> nope
[20:24] <warriorguyver2> cool
[20:24] <PPG> Not new eps, though, correct?
[20:24] <webcs> ANything is possible
[20:24] <RingSongs> will B5 is done with...theres
never gonna be more
[20:24] <RingSongs> unless he makes a movie
[20:24] <a_blip> You get kicked of IRC if you send
to many signals in a short time
[20:25] <webcs> If you newbies would like to help,
there is an address to can send letters to SCIFI in support of B5 and Crusade
[20:25] <warriorguyver2> oh
[20:25] <PPG> No offense to any Lexx fans, but I can't
believe scifi devotes an hour to that show but it's questionable about
B5/Crusade. *shakes head*
[20:25] <PeRp|eXeD> i see amazon has into the fire
listed for this year
[20:25] <webcs> Its at http://webcs.com/ranger/crusade.html
[20:25] <RiverOtter> I thought TNt had B5 for several
more yaers
[20:25] <PPG> *not a newbie btw* already written.
[20:25] <RingSongs> -=--=--=-Who Wants To Be A Millionare
is on tonight-=-=-=-==-=-
[20:25] <RingSongs> lol
[20:25] <PPG> Oh, B5 I know. *bg* HUGE
FAN!
[20:25] <Kailin> After looking at some of the not
so good programming sci-fi has now, Crusade would be a boon for them.
[20:25] <webcs> PPG: very good...thanks for writing
[20:25] <RingSongs> Sci Fi has some decent shows kailin
[20:25] <PPG> NP. B5 is the best scifi show
EVER.
[20:26] <RingSongs> like Sliders, lost in space, farscape,
star trek TOS
[20:26] <webcs> they also have some not-so-fine shows
[20:26] <PPG> Oh, absolutely. FARSCAPE!
[20:26] <RingSongs> first wave...ive heard is decent
[20:26] <Kailin> I just qualified to be on "who wants
to be a millionaire", have to wait for a callback tomorrow.
[20:26] <warriorguyver2> farscape rocks
[20:26] <RiverOtter> I agree withRingSongs
[20:26] <webcs> YOUR KIDDING...COOL!!!!
[20:26] <RingSongs> they ahve a bunch of new series
too..like prey and dune i dont know what there about
[20:26] <webcs> If you get on the show please tell
us!!!
[20:26] <RiverOtter> God luck Kailin
[20:26] *** dar has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:26] <PPG> Farscape totally rocks. First
Wave's ok, but I don't like the main dude. No personality whatsoever.
[20:26] <warriorguyver2> first wave rocks to
[20:26] <PPG> *cries for Prey*
[20:27] <Kailin> I didn't say Sci-fi didn't have good
programming, they just have some awful stuff on there a lot.
[20:27] <webcs> How hard was it to qualify...what
did you have to fo?
[20:27] <warriorguyver2> prey sucks
[20:27] <RingSongs> well kailin if ur lucky they'll
ask thequestion for "Name the star trek series in order" to get in to the
big seat
[20:27] <PPG> Dark Skies. Earth 2. SAAB.//Kailin,
for sure. *s*
[20:27] <PPG> Prey's good!!
[20:27] <RiverOtter> Or some other sf question
[20:27] <webcs> They already asked that question actually
[20:27] <PPG> Course, eye of the beholder. *s*
[20:27] <RingSongs> Sci Fi needs to pick up TNG:(
[20:27] <RingSongs> I dotn get reruns of tng or ds9
here in CA
[20:28] <warriorguyver2> prey sucks butt
[20:28] <webcs> I was pretty dissapointed that Earth
2 was cancelled before some sort of resolution. Had potential
[20:28] <RingSongs> just stupid reruns of voyager..plus
new voyager
[20:28] <RiverOtter> That's the best St series in
my opinion
[20:28] <RingSongs> whats Earth 2?
[20:28] <PPG> Delicately put, warrior. *sighs*//DS9
is wonderful.
[20:28] <warriorguyver2> bring back brimestone
[20:28] <Kailin> If I get on Millionaire, you can
bet I'll be shouting it all over the net.
[20:28] <webcs> You've bever seen Earth 2? It
was a huge;y promoted series a few years ago.
[20:28] <RiverOtter> People colonize planet, run into
natives
[20:28] <PPG> riverotter, which ST you like best?//Earth
2 - another good CBS scifi show that was cancelled.
[20:29] * webcs asks KAILIN: how hard was it to qualify...what
did you do?
[20:29] <RiverOtter> It's on the sf channel Sunday
am. 7 am on the West Coast

[20:29] <RingSongs> woah i'll check it out sometime
[20:29] *** PPG has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:29] <Kailin> You call an 800 number, they ask
3 questions, put stuff in order 1-4, if all 3 are correct, you qualify
for next round
[20:29] <galen2000> Tim Curry was cool on Earth 2
[20:29] *** PPG (cybernaut@***.musc.edu) has joined #scifi

of all people who qualified today, they select 40.
[20:30] <webcs> HEY BOOTHBY!!!!!
[20:30] <Boothby> PLease excuse me everyone.
I thought it was 7:30 PACIFIC time.
[20:30] <Kailin> Time limit is 10 seconds per question.
[20:30] <webcs> Welcome
[20:31] <Boothby> Once again, I TRUELY apologize.
[20:31] <warriorguyver2> time limit on what
[20:31] <webcs> EVERYONE: Boothy is the webmaster
of SBalliance who was nice enough to join us tonight
[20:31] <Kailin> It took me a week to get all 3 questions
right. They change them each day, and you can only call once per day
[20:31] <webcs> thats ok...hows it going with the
website?
[20:31] <RiverOtter> SBalliance?
[20:31] <Boothby> Hello everyone. It's nice
to be here.
[20:31] <PPG> *waves at Booth*
[20:32] <Boothby> SLow, but very good. We're
constantly growing and people like our mission.
[20:32] <Kailin> Enough silly talk, let's get down
to business.
[20:32] <webcs> BOOTHBY:
Why dont you explain what SBalliance is to us all......
[20:32] <warriorguyver2> what is it
[20:32] <RiverOtter> Please
[20:32] <PPG> *claps for Kailin* agreed
[20:32] <webcs> :)
[20:32] <Boothby> OK. The SBA, or Spacebattles
Alliance, is a group that has devoted its time and energy to bring unity
to all sci-fi fans.
[20:33] <webcs> something Save Crusade has been promoting
[20:33] <Kailin> I have informed Tim and Heather if
they get the button campaign off the ground, to try and get some to me
by Feb 18 for Gallifrey.
[20:33] <Boothby> There is quite a bit a friction
and bickering between diffferent sci-fi fans (i.e. Star Wars, Star Trek,
Babylon 5). We want to try to end this.
[20:33] <webcs> I know if I see another Defiant-Whitestar
thread I'll kill myself...
[20:33] <PPG> Oh bickering is no good. Split
energy.
[20:33] <Kailin> Many Crusade cast members will be
there.
[20:33] <Boothby> We are also VERY concerned in bringing
back Crusade to sci-fi
[20:33] <Darlana> Here Here!
[20:34] <webcs> BOOTHBY: Have you gotten support or
help from many people as of this date?
[20:34] <RiverOtter> I agree. Let's put energy
in working together instead of bickering.
[20:34] <PPG> Here here here!
[20:34] <webcs> That's good to here boothby
[20:34] <Boothby> I'm glad to see peopel agree with
this idea. :)
[20:34] <Kailin> But how do you approach the diehard
ST fans?
[20:34] <Boothby> So, what are some of the ideas you
have to save Crusade?
[20:35] <RiverOtter> Nothing worked on diehard ST
fans
[20:35] <Kailin> I run into this at cons, such as
Fantasticon, which started with ST cast members, but has the most support
from B5 cast members.
[20:35] <warriorguyver2> crusade?
[20:35] <webcs> Well, we have already gone through
a t-shirt campaign, we are working on a button campaign to raise awareness
at the conventions and are constrantly promoting writing campaigns
[20:35] <Boothby> Actually, the die hard Trek fans
in the SBA have REALLY learned to get along with one another.
We are having a hard time with the Warsies though... :(
[20:35] <RiverOtter> As in sequel to Babylon5
[20:35] <RiverOtter> Warsues?
[20:35] <Boothby> Star Wars fans.
[20:35] <Kailin> Well, that's a TV versus Film issue
as well.
[20:36] <Boothby> Yes, I thought we were going to
talk about how to get B5: Crusade back on TV.
[20:36] <RiverOtter> Worse than diehard ST fans?
[20:36] <Boothby> Believe it or not, very much so.
[20:36] <webcs> BOOTHBY: How can your website best
raise awareness of Crusade and the effort to save it.
[20:36] <Kailin> I went to the San Diego museum yesterday
for the Star Wars as Myth exhibit. This idea would fit for much of B5 as
well, but not so much for ST
[20:37] <RiverOtter> Ouch. I grew up watching original
Star Trek and Lost in Space
[20:37] <warriorguyver2> nothing wrong with that
[20:37] <webcs> Boothy, have you heard any news on
the Crusade front that we may not have heard?
[20:37] <Boothby> Well, the SBA believe VERY much
in both bringing unity to the fans, and using that unity to work together
on awareness and fighting back. The SBA would like to support such
a movement via petitions, letters, etc.
[20:37] <Kailin> Showing similarities as well as differences
can be a plus.
[20:37] <RiverOtter> So al this bickering seems stupid
to me because sf is sf.
[20:38] <Boothby> Just think if not only the B5 fans
sign ed a petition, but all the ST and SW fans as well.
[20:38] <webcs> Yes, scifi has enough problems expanding
without factions
[20:38] <PPG> Yeah unit is what JMS is saying quite
a bit in B5. He always said there's room in the scifi universe for
everyone. It be silly to feel otherwise, I think.
[20:38] <RiverOtter> We might run out of paper
[20:38] <Kailin> Divide and Conquer, United we Stand,
makes sense.
[20:38] <PPG> unit = unity
[20:38] <webcs> Are you setting up an automated petition
system...that is something Allie from Save Crusade wants to implement
[20:38] <RiverOtter> I agree, Kailin.
[20:38] <Boothby> That's what the SBA has been emphasizing.
We have done a pretty good job so far.
[20:39] <RiverOtter> Website?
[20:39] <Kailin> But what does the petition ask for,
who is it directed at?
[20:39] <webcs> sballiance.com I believe?
[20:39] *** Allie (cybernaut@***.direct.ca) has joined
#scifi
[20:39] <webcs> ALLIE!!!!!!
[20:39] <Boothby> Not yet. We have so much to
do that we are really trying to promote cooperation and volunteer work
In fact, the SBA is trying to be run that way. Less central power
and more power to the fans in the actual creation and maintenence of the
Site.
[20:40] <Allie> *big hug* back at you Kailin!
[20:40] <webcs> thats a good approach Booth
[20:40] <Allie> Sorry not be here earlier, but I'm
frantically researching a paper due next week.
[20:40] <Kailin> Boothby, have you thought about promoting
the website via flyers at cons?
[20:40] *** RiverOtter has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:41] <webcs> Or setting up a booth?????
[20:41] <Allie> Actually, I'm quite glad to see someone
actually picking up the effort. I just haven't had time myself.
[20:41] <webcs> Hey, BTW how much would it cost for
us to setup a booth at a convension????
[20:41] <Boothby> Thaks. We've been having some
trouble with it so far though. People don't have enought time to
hel-p and that has really slowed the progress. Yet, I still belive
it's the best way to go to really bring people togehter
[20:41] *** jrgreenmd has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:41] <webcs> I know, time is short
[20:41] <Kailin> Gallifrey is a big Dr. Who con, with
many B5 guests as well.
[20:41] <Allie> Boothby, do you have "friends of"
or "we support" logo icons?
[20:41] <Boothby> No idea how much it would cost,
but that could really help.
[20:41] <webcs> I think you would agree its a LONG
TERM GOAL and will take time to get rolling.
[20:42] <Boothby> Yes we do. :) I can send them
to you if you'd like
[20:42] <Kailin> Well, flyers can be done as a PDF
or something on your site that fans can download and take to a con they
are already attending.
[20:42] *** RiverOtter (cybernaut@***.64.ont-3766.uia.net)
has joined #scifi
[20:42] <webcs> Thats a good idea Kailin
[20:42] <webcs> That way they can help in the printing
costs too
[20:42] <Allie> Yes, that'd be good. I'll put
one on my site, our ezine, and anything else I do.
[20:43] <Allie> is this a private message function?
[20:43] <webcs> Adobe format seems to be the best
for that correct?
[20:43] <Boothby> One thing that I really think would
hellp the effort for not only Crusade but the whole B5 franchise is to
also support the game B5: Under the fire. People need to know
there's a large group of people that still are interested in B5
[20:43] <webcs> do you mean is this moderated chat?
no.
[20:43] <Boothby> Allie: How should I send them
to you?
[20:43] <Allie> wierd, sorry... that didn't work.
:)
[20:43] *** PPG has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:43] <Allie> Nono, I meant is there a way to talk
to people privately.,
[20:43] <webcs> just click on his name
[20:43] <Allie> send them to books@darkmoonrising.com
[20:43] <Kailin> I'm already taking Fantasticon and
Save Crusade flyers to Gallifrey, so one more set of flyers isn't too much
of a burden for me.
[20:44] <webcs> Allie...whats
the status on the T-shirt sendout as of this time?
[20:44] <Allie> you'll also be taking a bunch of t-shirts,
I hope. :)
[20:44] <Boothby> Thanks Allie. I'll send them
to you tonight.
[20:44] <Allie> Well, Maggie's went out as did Bonnie's.
[20:44] <webcs> COOL!
[20:44] <Allie> Marjean's goes out now that I know
she's back.
[20:44] <webcs> She's looking forward to hers
[20:45] <Allie> I'm planning to send Kailin the shirts
for David, Peter, Carrie, and JMS for Gallifrey.
[20:45] <Kailin> Do you mean you will be sending the
remaining shirts to me, such as JMS
[20:45] <webcs> I should be getting a picture of her
in it when she gets it and I will be sure to post it
[20:45] <Kailin> We think alike, can you all tell?
[20:45] <Boothby> Hey RingSongs! I just saw
you on the User list. :)
[20:45] <webcs> BTW....anyone with a T-shirt..please
send me over a photo
[20:46] <Kailin> Send them ASAP so I get them in time
[20:46] <Allie> That still leaves Fiona, Netter, Copeland,
Gary, Daniel... I can't think who else offhand.
[20:46] *** cecilyshi (muzi@***.grcc.cc.mi.us) has joined
#scifi
[20:46] <Allie> Yep, I'll send them Wednesday I think...
[20:46] <cecilyshi> hi
[20:46] <cecilyshi> what's up, people??
[20:46] <Kailin> Fiona may turn up at Gallifrey, but
I'm not sure.
[20:46] <Allie> Oh, right, the remaining one would
be for Evan. Any idea how to contact Evan?
[20:46] <Boothby> So, what are some other ideas you
guys have??
[20:46] <Allie> Ideas for?
[20:46] <RingSongs> BOOTHBY!!
[20:46] <RingSongs> MAN
[20:46] <webcs> I think you could contact him through

[20:48] <Kailin> Los Angeles
[20:49] * cecilyshi wants know where are all the people
calling from???
[20:49] *** RingSongs has quit IRC (Connection reset
by peer)
[20:49] <Allie> Well there's the buttons thing that
Tim and Heather are working on.
[20:49] <webcs> <- MASS, USA
[20:49] <Allie> Though I'm not sure how much good
that can do now...
[20:49] <Boothby> California
[20:49] <RiverOtter> Southern Califorina
[20:49] <Allie> BC, Canada
[20:49] <Darlana> Utah
[20:49] <Kailin> Boothby, email me with form info
at kailin@ibm.net
[20:49] *** PeRp|eXeD has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:49] <cecilyshi> I am from michigan
[20:49] <webcs> T&H apologised for not being able
to make it...they had emergency work to do tonight.
[20:49] <Boothby> From info??
[20:49] <Kailin> Many of us in California, coolness
[20:50] <cecilyshi> ok
[20:50] <RiverOtter> Boothby~ Where in CA?
[20:50] <cecilyshi> it's cool over there,right??
[20:50] <Kailin> I meant form info, or is it a flyer
we discussed.
[20:50] <RiverOtter> It's in the 60's.
[20:50] <Boothby> Ukiah. It's in Northern California
[20:50] <webcs> Allie...maybe
one of the conventions would give us a deal on a table, or a freeby since
we are a nonprofit support group????
[20:50] <Allie> Emergency work... for their theses?
[20:50] *** cecilyshi (muzi@***.grcc.cc.mi.us) has left
#scifi
[20:50] <webcs> they werent specific.
[20:50] <Allie> I can think of one that might. <wink>
[20:51] <Boothby> Kalin: I Was going to set
up a FORUM for you guys on our web board. SO you guys can discuss
this more.
[20:51] <Kailin> Talk to Shaun at Gallifrey or Alec
at Agamemcon, fan tables are usually free, and you only pay for memberships.
[20:51] <webcs> BOOTHBY...you might consider joining
hte Save Crusade mailing list...you would fit in nicely
[20:51] <Allie> a good idea. Perhaps invite
others to participate.
[20:52] <Boothby> I'll do that. Once the SBA
gets established, we really want our members to help iout with stuff like
this.
[20:52] <webcs> that would be good....we could print
up inexpensive flyers and have volunteers man them and hand them out...
[20:52] <Boothby> Problem is, many of our members
are more interested in the art side of sci-fi and less with this type of
stuff. :(
[20:52] <warriorguyver2> oh
[20:52] <RiverOtter> At every con
[20:52] <Kailin> I think at least a flyer to advertise
your website would be a good idea, preferably, something small, like a
half sheet.
[20:53] <RiverOtter> And you could post on various
mailing lists on the net
[20:53] <Boothby> Well, where's the largest site trying
to bring back Crusade located? I think we need a strong hub for this
movement.
[20:53] <webcs> well without this stuff there wont
be too much call for art now will there???
[20:53] <Kailin> Many sci-fi cons have art shows,
so the fans do go. Gallifrey has a great art show, as does Loscon. San
Diego Comic Con is mostly comic artists.
[20:54] <webcs> T&H's site is the official save
crusade site
[20:54] <webcs> What's the URL...god where are my
bookmarks
[20:54] <Allie> yep, they're official
[20:54] <Allie> it's www.astro.umd.edu/~fleming
[20:54] <webcs> thank you
[20:54] <Allie> no problem.
[20:55] *** cmcdunah (cybernaut@***.s539.tnt7.atn.pa.dialup.rcn.com)
has joined #scifi
[20:55] <Kailin> I just realized the Save Crusade
flyers I downloaded for Loscon are outdated, since Bonnie's position change,
bummer. Need to print more of them up then.
[20:55] <webcs> There are several major sites, we
all try to work together.
[20:55] <webcs> And we flow off of the official site
and help when we can
[20:55] <Boothby> Well, my personal feeling is we
need to organize so we're all supporting and working throught the same
channel. Once we fragment our movement, we lose power, strength and
unity. We all need to band together towards a common organiztion.
[20:55] <Allie> there's also my site, which doesn't
stay up to date recently cause there hasn't been much to say: Voice of
the Resistance... www.darkmoonrising.com/voice/default.asp
[20:55] <webcs> yeah. there has really been nothing
to report
[20:56] <webcs> JMS is in hibernation after the CBS
debacle
[20:56] <Boothby> That';s too bad. :( Then we
have to MAKE something to report.
[20:56] <webcs> That would be nice...what would you
suggest?
[20:56] <Allie> that's true, and it's something we've
worked very hard at. There are several sites with different reporting
styles and different emphases, but we're very self-referential, creating
a good net.
[20:56] <Kailin> Unity on this has been great to see.
Also suggest rec.art.scifi.tv.babylon5.moderated, or something like that.
Great newsgroup.
[20:56] <webcs> We have really some together...some
good people in this group
[20:56] <Boothby> I suggest constantly emailing TNT,
JMS, and the Sci-Fi channel about Crusade and how we can get it to work.
[20:56] <RiverOtter> CBS debacle?
[20:56] *** Derfel (cybernaut@***.nbnet.nb.ca) has joined
#scifi
[20:57] <webcs> Thats what we do Boothby.
[20:57] <Derfel> I'm back
[20:57] <Boothby> Hmmm..... No respnse?
[20:57] <webcs> CBS cancelled JMS's new show concept
"World On Fire" at the last minute
[20:57] <Kailin> Constantly emailing JMS isn't going
to do any good. He wants it to work, but doens't have the power to make
it so.
[20:57] <webcs> Actually, it was FOX that pulled the
plug I believe...anyway, same difference
[20:57] <Boothby> True. Very true.
[20:57] <RiverOtter> Thanks. So what is JMS
doing now?
[20:58] <a_blip> Rising Stars
[20:58] <Boothby> I would think the Sci-Fi channle
would really like this show in their schedule....
[20:58] <webcs> Writing
[20:58] <Kailin> I'm not sure, but I'll let you all
know updated stuff on JMS after Gallifrey.
[20:58] *** warriorguyver2 has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[20:58] <webcs> That's what we have been telling them
for a year now
[20:58] <RiverOtter> Thanks Kailin
[20:58] <Boothby> How many people??
[20:58] <webcs> With true promotion this show woulod
get good ratings.
[20:58] <Boothby> I agree.
[20:58] <Allie> well, JMS did say he'd be doing new
B5 and Crusade stories in B5 mag...
[20:58] <RiverOtter> Crusade?
[20:58] <Allie> B5 at least.
[20:58] <cmcdunah> JMS has intimated that he has other
irons in the fire, but hasn't given out any real details
[20:59] <webcs> That's a good sign....at least he's
still involved
[20:59] <Kailin> His Amazing Stories article number
3 is due in the summer.
[20:59] <Boothby> How many people email these groups???
[20:59] <webcs> I doubt he'll tell us anything until
it happens how...so many things has gone down at the last minute its become
embarrassing for him.
[20:59] <Kailin> actually, we write real letters,
better that way.
[20:59] <Boothby> Yeah. It is.
[20:59] <Allie> oh, we don't know really. We
focused on snail mail, as we felt it's too easy to email, and so doesn't
say as much.
[21:00] <Boothby> Well, what if we can get 1000 to
3000 signatures or emails to the Sci-Fi Channel???
[21:00] <Kailin> I have a meeting to get to up in
Los Angeles, so I must boogie. Will or Allie, please be so good as to email
me anything important decided tonight.
[21:00] <Allie> we've got more than that already
[21:00] <Boothby> CYA Kalin
[21:00] <Boothby> Hmm....
[21:01] <webcs> Kailin...there will be a transcrpt
on my site if you need it
[21:01] <Kailin> Bye all, gotta hit the freeway.
[21:01] <Allie> Kailin, find me later online if you'll
be around.
[21:01] <Boothby> Well, what if we tried to get around
80 to 90 percent of the B5 sites out there to band together on this movement.
[21:01] <Kailin> Coolness Will, Allie, I'll be home
no later than 10pm. See ya then.
[21:01] *** Kailin has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[21:01] <Allie> Ok, see ya round ten.
[21:01] <Allie> too late. :)
[21:02] <webcs> That is doable...most of the webmasters
still updating will help,
[21:02] <RiverOtter> Have to go.
[21:02] <Derfel> a united front is always good
[21:02] <Allie> Boothby, we'd be happy for your help
in that, but we did blitzkrieg all of the B5 sites that we could find with
Crusade stuff way back when
[21:02] *** RiverOtter has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[21:02] <webcs> True...this stuff has been happening
already boothby...constantly.
[21:03] <Boothby> Sounds like you have really been
working at this thing....
[21:03] <webcs> for a long time
[21:03] <webcs> In roads have been made, but momentum
must be picked up and sustained
[21:04] <Boothby> Well, is there a way we could attract
more people? Get some of the Stars to come in for special chat sessions?
Really promote this movement and get people to band together by actually
giving them incentive?
[21:04] <Allie> seems hopeless truthfully...
[21:04] <webcs> Thats why I suggested you subscribe
to the mailing list, because these type of topics are discussed constantly
[21:04] <Boothby> What's the address to it??
[21:04] <Allie> I hate to say so. It's not that
we aren't trying, but the real action is so far from our reach...
[21:04] <Boothby> Nothing is hopeless ALlie. :)
[21:04] <Allie> we sent Bonnie Hammer a Save Crusade
t-shirt.
[21:04] <Allie> :)
[21:05] <webcs> SOme of the stars are involved in
many ways, helping at conventions, etc.
[21:05] <Allie> I know, I'm not a pessimist at all.
Just feeling a bit like my hands are tied.
[21:05] <a_blip> I think we were at our highest when
we bought the ads
[21:05] <Derfel> www.onelist.com , savcrusade2x group
[21:05] <webcs> I agree....the ads thing was the best
[21:05] <Boothby> In great numbers, nothing is out
of reach. Remember, WE are in control. Fans dictate what and
what doesn't happen in sci-fi
[21:05] <Allie> Marjean, Carrie, and Peter are still
working on this.
[21:05] <cmcdunah> I hear you, Allie. Some of
us have been emailing and posting and writing since before the show ever
aired and here we are . . .
[21:05] <webcs> Maybe we should buy ad space again???
[21:06] <Derfel> did we ever get feedback on the ads
by the way?
[21:06] <Allie> Gary Cole is basically gone and no
one's heard anything from or about Daniel since Valley Forge in August.
[21:06] <webcs> Gary COle still doesnt have a series
though does he?
[21:06] <a_blip> Gary Cole is doing a new movie
[21:06] <cmcdunah> Really the problem is with the
suits at Warner Bros. and TNT. The actors have all indicated that
they would love to return.
[21:06] <Allie> oh, I didn't mean gone as in unavailable.
[21:07] *** Darlana has quit IRC (QUIT: User exited)
[21:07] <a_blip> The Gift directed by Sam Raimi
[21:07] <Allie> Just gone as in no one from the cast
seems to be in touch with him.
[21:07] <webcs> I really dont think WB is doing there
best to find it a home.
[21:07] <webcs> And with JMS in a wait mode, there
isnt any movement.
[21:07] <cmcdunah> That is for sure, webcs.
They seem content to let this franchise languish in limbo.
[21:07] <Boothby> You know, this type of thing happened
about 36 years ago. A show got cancelled and people kept it alive
through diffeent channels and it eventually came back. It took over
a decade, but it finally happened. It's called Star Trek. Perhaps
what we need is patient, perserverence and time...
[21:08] <webcs> Oh we are patient if anything
[21:08] <Boothby> Hehehehehe :)
[21:08] <a_blip> I don't think Crusade made much of
an impression Gary
[21:08] <Allie> I'm not patient.
[21:08] <Allie> Not at all patient.
[21:08] <Allie> I want Crusade now dammit.
[21:08] <Boothby> Yeah. I know what you mean
Allie.
[21:08] <webcs> But B5 as a whole DID
[21:08] <Allie> <stifles a giggle> pardon
my belligerence. I just needed to say that.
[21:08] <webcs> B5 is seen to be one of the best scifi
shows in history in many circles.
[21:09] <webcs> I can't see how something so dense
couldnt rise again eventually
[21:09] <a_blip> I meant: I don't think Crusade made
much of an impression on Gary Cole
[21:09] <cmcdunah> JMS has burned out on the B5 universe.
Suits who throw monkey wrenches need to be no where in sight before he
will be psyched about a return to the B5 franchise.
[21:09] <Allie> One thing that's encouraging anyway
is that suddenly there does seem to be more sci fi content being offered...
Frakes new show and Andromeda among them.
[21:09] <a_blip> I hate typing :-)
[21:09] <Boothby> To tell you the
truth, perhaps Crusade is not the answer, maybe it would be best to go
back to more of the B5 idea. Less of a one ship, one crew, Star Trekish
concept and more of a larger scope story...
[21:09] <webcs> Well Gary Cole isn't a fan, he just
does his job I think.
[21:10] <webcs> Well, I personally think the best
concept would be a B4 concept.
[21:10] <cmcdunah> That would be really cool
[21:10] <Boothby> YEah, something like that...
[21:10] <webcs> Something dealing with Galen and the
travels of Babylon-4
[21:10] <webcs> Not Galen...duh
[21:10] <webcs> Valen...hehehe
[21:10] <Allie> hehe..
[21:10] <webcs> :)
[21:11] <a_blip> Gary already has one other show fans
want to save (American Gothic)
[21:11] <cmcdunah> There's a chunk of story never
told.
[21:11] <Allie> Hmmm...
[21:11] <cmcdunah> B4, I mean.
[21:11] <Derfel> there are many chunks
[21:11] <Allie> no, I'm not into prequels so much...
[21:11] <cmcdunah> True.
[21:11] <Boothby> People are going to be in dire need
of good sci-fi. Ds( is gone, Voyager is getting better, but is no
Ds9 or B5, so there is a void of powerhouse sci-fi.
[21:11] <a_blip> And Crusade *would* have had a larger
scope story
[21:11] <Boothby> That needs to be exploited...
[21:11] <webcs> There are certainly no FRANCHISES
around anymore
[21:11] <a_blip> There are some intresting lines in
the Crusade Writers Bible
[21:11] <Allie> although, I'd love to have the story
of our first however many years after contact with the Centauri.
[21:12] <Derfel> but does SciFi have the budget to
go alone on Crusade?
[21:12] <Allie> Dude, I'm telling you guys... one
of the best sci fi shows that ever got canceled was Space Island One.
[21:12] <a_blip> On how to keep it from going stale
[21:12] <webcs> Well I know O'Hare would jump at a
chance to play Valen...he's a huge supporter if that ever happened.
[21:12] <cmcdunah> Really?
[21:12] <Boothby> Do you think Paramount
would pick it up??
[21:12] <Allie> Ballsy, because it was near future...
tight because it was an ensemble cast in a space station. Good good
stuff.
[21:13] <Boothby> If they did so, they'd have the
monoploy on Sci-Fi
[21:13] <Derfel> Very good stuff
[21:13] <Derfel> I can't see Paramount producing a
competitor to ST
[21:13] <webcs> It amazes me...if B5 was ever given
true money how good it could be.
[21:13] <Allie> MOH is not likely to get a call for
a leading role... the truth is, he got let go of because the suits didn't
think he was sexy enough or a good enough actor to carry the lead role...
[21:13] <cmcdunah> Sci Fi seems more interested in
bringing us things we've never heard of.
[21:13] <Allie> I can't see how that's likely to change.
[21:14] <Derfel> . . . cause that's all SciFi can
afford I bet
[21:14] <webcs> He wouldnt have to lead...it could
be a true ensemble
[21:14] <Boothby> What about WB? They're dying
for something like this most likely.
[21:14] <webcs> Oh dont get me started on the WB thing
[21:14] <cmcdunah> WB has targeted the Dawson's Creek
generation.
[21:14] <Allie> I'm all for it, but I'm not optimistic
about the suits.
[21:14] <Allie> WB most emphatically does not want
Crusade.
[21:14] <Boothby> Why? I don't know much about
that situation...
[21:15] <Boothby> Hmmm... Why does no one want
this thing?
[21:15] <Allie> Their idea of sci fi is Roswell.
Teen drama with an "aliens in hiding" recurring theme.
[21:15] <cmcdunah> They want mainstream, not niche
market stuff, as they see it.
[21:15] <Allie> Mostly because they didn't think of
it, and JMS is a pain in the ass.
[21:15] <Boothby> He is??
[21:15] <webcs> B5 definitely belongs on a TRUE scifi
home
[21:15] <a_blip> And back in the PTEN days B5 was
WBN's enemy
[21:16] <webcs> The best scenario right now in my
opinion is somehow b5 reruns will wind up on a true scifi station.
Then the ratings will be solid and that channel will want more.
[21:16] <cmcdunah> Yeah, it's a shame Sci Fi didn't
grab it up. That's really where B5 belongs. I am unsure of
whether they are blind to that or whether they just can't pull it off.
[21:16] <Boothby> That's a good idea.
[21:16] <Boothby> I think if the Sci-FI channle got
B5, it would really help the ratings. TNT has put it in a REALLY
weird time slot.
[21:16] <Derfel> I guess one of the big 4 net's is
out of the question
[21:16] <Allie> yeah, he's a regular irritant.
He even admits that he's miserable to work with.
[21:17] <a_blip> scifi didn't get B5 because TNT bought
the rights in 1995
[21:17] <webcs> I dont think many stations know how
much of an impact that show will have in the future and we have to wait
until it does.
[21:17] <webcs> Those rights are almost up I believe...correct
Allie?
[21:17] <webcs> dont they expire in a month?
[21:17] <cmcdunah> JMS said Sci FI tried to get it
when TNT dropped it but just couldn't make the math work.
[21:17] <Allie> Actually, Boothby... the coolest thing
that SBAlliance could possibly do is band together fans to buy a network.
:)
[21:17] <Boothby> Well, they didn't know the future
of Star Trek so that makes sense...
[21:17] <Allie> Yes, I believe they are nearly up
Will.
[21:18] <Boothby> Hehehehehehehehehehehehe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[21:18] <cmcdunah> Yeow. That's thinking big,
Allie.
[21:18] <Boothby> I wish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[21:18] <Derfel> I lIKE it
[21:18] <Boothby> That would be awesome!
[21:18] <webcs> Hey guys...Majel Roddenberry is starting
a ONLINE SCIENCE FICTION website for showing original shows online..that
may be the future
[21:18] <Boothby> YOu know how much that would cost
though????
[21:18] <Derfel> She's always supported B5
[21:18] <Allie> well, here's the thing... we wouldn't
need to keep it running that long...
[21:18] *** Lenonn (cybernaut@***.s13.tnt15.brd.va.dialup.rcn.com)
has joined #scifi
[21:18] <cmcdunah> How does that work, webcs?
[21:18] <Allie> basically, we could do it as an nfp
like PBS...
[21:19] <webcs> She is going to be producing animation
and original shows to show online, via streaming technology. Its
in developement long-term but coming.
[21:19] <Boothby> How much do you think that would
cost?
[21:19] <Allie> and, if we kept it alive for long
enough to be a potential threat to the biggies, then we'd have some bargaining
power.
[21:19] <Boothby> How much would it cost to claim
the rights to Crusade??
[21:19] <Lenonn> Probably a LOT
[21:19] <Boothby> Yeah....
[21:19] <cmcdunah> Price is probably dropping.
[21:20] <Allie> Well, not really...
[21:20] <webcs> Here's a thought...what about a parady
concept to raise awareness...something like BLAIR WITCH...we could tape
it and show it online.
[21:20] <Derfel> yeah, but we would need cool items
like the "disappearing Tardis" coffee mug for our pledge drives
[21:20] <Boothby> Are we talking 7 figure digits?
[21:20] <Lenonn> How long does TNT have rights to
Crusade reruns?
[21:20] <webcs> I believe they are up in FEB.
[21:20] <Allie> The episodes themselves were each
filmed for under 600K
[21:20] <Derfel> and why does TNT keep the Crusade
web page active?
[21:20] <Allie> that's cheap for good sci fi.
[21:20] <Lenonn> Maybe a plea from Earth
[21:20] <Boothby> Well, I was thinking of Streaming
B5 or Crusade if it's legal....
[21:21] <Allie> And, the rights... well... we wouldn't
probably have to purchase the rights if everyone else's were expired.
[21:21] <cmcdunah> The right hand probably doesn't
know or care what the left is doing over at TNT.
[21:21] <Lenonn> Anyone been contacted by Sci Fi recently?
[21:21] <cmcdunah> No.
[21:21] <Allie> And, if JMS has any interest in seeing
Crusade continue (big question mark there), he might just let us do it
to see what would come of the experiment.
[21:21] <Lenonn> I don't think "Lexx" will last very
long
[21:21] <webcs> Its already lasted long...Its not
a US show
[21:21] <cmcdunah> I think it will.
[21:21] <Boothby> Who actaully has the rights to Crusade
right now? Doies TNT have rights to the re-runs??
[21:22] <webcs> They are actually in season 3
[21:22] <Lenonn> God forbid
[21:22] <cmcdunah> I dig it.
[21:22] <Lenonn> If only Crusade year one could be
released on DVD
[21:22] <cmcdunah> What little I've seen; I'm an optimist.
[21:23] <Boothby> If the Sci-Fi channel had rights
to both Farscape and B5, they'd make some heads turn.....
[21:23] <cmcdunah> That would be cool.
[21:23] <webcs> There is a HUGE fanbase for LEXX in
non-U.S. markets and SciFi got the rights pretty cheap so its a money maker
regardless.
[21:23] <Lenonn> Too bad Sci Fi can't due a "Curse
of the Blair Witch"/"Galaxy Quest 20th Anniversary Special" type documentary
[21:23] <Allie> Lexx does amazingly well in Canada.
[21:23] <Boothby> Because I've heard rumors that Paramount
is thinking of making a sci-fi network also...
[21:23] <Allie> But then again... so did Crusade.
[21:23] <webcs> Showtime Beyond also is a possibility
[21:23] <Allie> Well, yes, they were thinking about
that.
[21:23] <Lenonn> do
[21:23] <Boothby> And if they do so, I don't think
the Sci-Fi Channel could compete...
[21:23] <cmcdunah> Sci Fi isn't going to kill Lexx.
[21:23] <webcs> They will be expanding constantly
[21:23] <Allie> Here's the thing with Paramount...
[21:24] <Allie> Paramount's sci fi channel WILL get
rights to Trek. Period.
[21:24] <Lenonn> Showtime is out of the question...
many of us don't get it, and would have to wait for syndication ala Stargate
SG-1
[21:24] <cmcdunah> Definitely
[21:24] <Allie> So, Skiffy and the others will be
wanting sci fi big and bad.
[21:24] <a_blip> Paramount making a SF chanell would
be wierd, since they are owned by Viacom, who owns Showtime Beyond
[21:24] <Lenonn> Maybe we should contact Paramount
[21:24] <Allie> The only franchise that comes close
to competing is B5.
[21:24] <a_blip> I think
[21:24] <Lenonn> Just to see if we can get info on
future plans for a sci fi channgel
[21:24] <Allie> Which means that if Skiffy wants to
stay alive, they'll need B5.
[21:24] <webcs> THere would probalby be a merger at
some point like what happened with the comedy channel
[21:25] <cmcdunah> I don't trust the geniuses at Paramount
any more than WB or TNT . . .
[21:25] <Allie> And, last I heard, you can't have
B5 without Crusade.
[21:25] <Allie> Paramount WILL NOT pick up B5.
[21:25] <Allie> It won't happen.
[21:25] <Lenonn> Maybe we should focus on a bunch
of television movies for Crusade
[21:25] <Boothby> YEah. And the Sci-Fi channel
would NEED B5 just to stay in competition with a paramount-owned scifi
network.
[21:25] <cmcdunah> Good. Probably let Berman
at it.
[21:25] <Lenonn> Like "Battlestar Galactica"
[21:25] <a_blip> Paramount certanly spent a lot of
effort in trying to kill B5 in its early stages
[21:25] <Allie> I think I just said that.
[21:26] <Lenonn> But it didn't work
[21:26] <Boothby> That's too bad.
[21:26] <Allie> ;)
[21:26] <Boothby> I love Star Trek, but I hate Paramount....
[21:26] <Allie> The best hope Crusade has right now
IMO
[21:26] <Allie> is that TNT's rights to B5 expire
NEXT year.
[21:27] <Boothby> Good point.
[21:27] <Lenonn> Next year?
[21:27] <webcs> Next year? I thought they did
in FEB?
[21:27] <a_blip> The worst thing they did was convinceing
Majel that B5 was a DS9 ripoff
[21:27] <Lenonn> Another year of missing it because
I sleep in on Saturday?
[21:27] <Boothby> SOmeone will pick it up. I
just have a good feelin about that.
[21:27] <Lenonn> Majel has her own problems right
now
[21:27] <webcs> There is no way TNT will keep it on
much longer...no way.
[21:27] <Allie> When whomever is negotiating for new
B5 negotiates, the first deal will probably offer B5, some new B5 movies,
and Crusade as a one-shot deal
[21:27] <Boothby> It's not. Not at all.
And DS9 is not a B5 ripoff....
[21:27] <webcs> She sure does.
[21:28] <Allie> They'll put pressure on the buyer
to take it as such.
[21:28] <Lenonn> It's a shame we couldn't get Majel's
help...
[21:28] <Boothby> What do you all think about B5:
Under the Fire??
[21:28] <Allie> I think it's next year. It's
the rights to Crusade's eps that expire this year... unless I'm twisted
and confused...
[21:28] <Lenonn> Into the Fire
[21:28] <webcs> Well, Majel is helping in her own
way by expanding the SF universe past Trek.
[21:28] <Allie> I emailed Majel to get her help early
on.
[21:28] <cmcdunah> Yes.
[21:28] <Lenonn> It was a shame... I was looking forward
to the game SO much
[21:28] <Allie> She was very sweet and said she supports
Joe, but there's simply nothing that she can do.
[21:28] <Boothby> Yeah, the B5 combat sim game cancelled
by Sierra.
[21:29] <Derfel> Majel might have her hands full with
Earth: FC
[21:29] <Lenonn> Well, at least she has "been there,
done that"
[21:29] <cmcdunah> That show has fallen apart behind
the scenes, apparently.
[21:29] <webcs> She's full go with Andromeda...and
that will take up most of her time.
[21:29] <Lenonn> Tis a shame... if only Crusade and
the game could come out at the same time... a rebirth of the B5 universe
[21:29] <Allie> Interesting that, because it's gotten
a lot better.
[21:29] <Boothby> WEll, I think that game is FAR more
important to the B5 franchise then people think...
[21:30] <cmcdunah> That could be interesting.
Has there been any further word on Boxleitner getting in on one of her
shows?
[21:30] <webcs> Well, in short guys, there will be
opportunities so dont get depressed and feel theres no hope. There
are possibilities
[21:30] <Lenonn> He will be some sort of recurring
character
[21:30] <Allie> I heard it was a done deal.
[21:30] <Lenonn> as far as I recall
[21:30] <Lenonn> I just don't like sitting here waiting
for news
[21:30] <webcs> The words "done deal" don't feel right
to me anymore :)
[21:30] <Allie> my advoice?
[21:31] <Allie> stop waiting for news.
[21:31] <Allie> just carry on and when there's something
we can all do to help, do it.
[21:31] <Allie> other than that...
[21:31] <Boothby> Personally, I see this as the transition
of B5.
[21:31] <Lenonn> To me, that is synonymous with "Yee,
abandon all hope"
[21:31] <Allie> <shrug>
[21:31] <cmcdunah> I think when Sci Fi gets beyond
the financial need to shop for the bargain basement show deals only (sooner
or later there won't be much left for them to grab up), we may be seeing
them grab up B5.
[21:31] <Allie> Nono, don't abandon hope.
[21:31] <webcs> Yes, we have to conserve energy and
be ready when something needs to be done
[21:31] <Boothby> Sooner or later, people will see
how good of a show it is and it will be picked up again.
[21:31] <Allie> Do what you can, but don't sit there
and wait... not much to listen for now. Believe me.
[21:32] <Lenonn> Maybe we need to keep encouraging
Sci Fi
[21:32] <Allie> If there was something going on, I'd
know about it.
[21:32] <Allie> well, maybe that's an overstatement...
:)
[21:32] <Boothby> It might just take time guys....
[21:32] <webcs> All my sources have said one thing...no
movement. Its just a wait period.
[21:32] <Allie> but I'd have heard hope in the voices
of my contacts.
[21:32] <cmcdunah> I mean like next year or so.
They're still trying to grow.
[21:33] <cmcdunah> Maybe later than that.
[21:33] <Lenonn> The Rangers... sitting, waiting for
a thousand years, to see if the Shadows have come back
[21:33] <Allie> boothby, mind if I ask you a... personal
question?
[21:33] <Boothby> Exactly. :)
[21:33] <webcs> Definitely any future revolves around
who gets the rights to B5 and when...that is the next step
[21:33] <Boothby> Sure. :)
[21:33] <Allie> no reason for it really, just wondering
where you get your energy, so... how old are you?
[21:33] <Allie> :)
[21:33] <webcs> until that happens we cant really
play the chess game so to speak
[21:33] <Lenonn> Is there any chance whatsoever TNT
could get the rights to B5 again?
[21:33] <Boothby> I'm 20.
[21:33] <Allie> exactly Will.
[21:33] <Allie> Ah.
[21:33] <webcs> THEY DONT WANT IT NOW
[21:34] <Lenonn> Thank God
[21:34] <Boothby> I get my energy through hope and
a positive outlook. :)
[21:34] <Allie> Good for you.
[21:34] <cmcdunah> How many of you post regularly
to BBoards?
[21:34] <Boothby> How old are you?
[21:34] <Lenonn> Which ones?
[21:34] <Derfel> occassional bboard poster
[21:34] <Allie> I get mine from coffee and constant
ideas.
[21:34] <Allie> Me? I'm 29.
[21:34] * webcs is 25
[21:34] <cmcdunah> Any in the genre.
[21:34] <Boothby> Hehehehehehehe :)
[21:34] <Lenonn> I post semiregularly... when I get
back from winter break, I will become a regualr again
[21:34] <Derfel> 29 here too
[21:34] <cmcdunah> 28
[21:34] <Lenonn> I am 19
[21:35] * a_blip is 19
[21:35] <webcs> Wow what a marketing profile...hehehe
[21:35] <Boothby> Yeah, they say the youth is full
of hope and dreams. :) I don't want to ever lose that though.
[21:35] <Lenonn> I was just a little worried about
the effects of today's merger
[21:35] <Derfel> there's a definite "burnout' factor
here - the people who have been involved the longest are also the most
tired
[21:35] <cmcdunah> No reason to. You do get
more practical with age, though.
[21:35] <Boothby> I don't think it has to do with
age.
[21:35] * a_blip has a VISA, and isn't afraid to use
it..
[21:35] <Boothby> True. :)
[21:35] <webcs> Well, all I can say guys is the 19-29
year olds will rise to power some day and changes will come. People
in our group will remember what was and want it again.
[21:35] <Allie> I'm not sure practical is what I'd
call it.
[21:35] <Lenonn> Same here, a_blip... within $700
or so
[21:35] <webcs> hahahahaha...cool A-blip
[21:36] <cmcdunah> I'm staying positive.
[21:36] <Lenonn> "I live for The One, I die for The
One"
[21:36] <Boothby> Yep. This will all take time,
but sooner or later, all will work out for the best. :)
[21:36] * a_blip certenly had enough dough to by the
*ubercool* Crusade jacket
[21:36] <Lenonn> Lucky, a_blip
[21:36] <Lenonn> Well, I'll go now
[21:37] <Lenonn> But if you want to contact me
[21:37] <Derfel> what I really want is a Ranger broach
[21:37] * webcs "WOULD LIKE TO THANK ALL FOR COMING TO
A VERY VERY GOOD CHAT"

[21:37] <webcs> thanks boothby and thanks to you all
[21:38] <cmcdunah> I mentioned the BBoard question
because I posted all over the Farscape Board @ Sci Fi from the first date
the TNT crap came out, as well as other Boards there. I didn't find
much help with raising Crusade awareness. Maybe this could
be a goal.
[21:38] <webcs> Keep the faith
