It's irritating beyond belief that Straczynski spoils the ending of the series in his commentary to episode 13.Yeah, I hadn't thought about it, but that would be a problem for those of you enjoying it for the first time. I've noticed that in general about commentaries, so it's proabably a lesson for all of us in other like situations.
Mark, Julie, or other newbies: here are a couple of other things to know. If anyone else remembers some ways to help others enjoy B5 for the first time, please chime in as well.
1. The pilot (The Gathering) is on a two-show disk with another movie (In the Beginning). Do NOT watch "In the Beginning" until after Season 4. (nitpickers will say you can watch it earlier, but it was produced between season 4 and 5, so most think it belongs there).
2. If you haven't gotten into Season 2 yet; quick-like, put a wrapper around the box set, hurry through the menus, and don't watch the credits for the first two episodes. (This is just a minor spoiler, so don't worry too much about it).
I started reading this thread to see what people new to the experience think of the show. BTW Mark, if you're enjoying S1, you are *really* going to be in love with the show by the end of S2. Hope you all have fun!
