- Sub: Babylon 5
-
- TWCNBN has been been named! J. Michael Straczynski has managed to bring a new
- quality to television and promises to do justice to TV and SF with a new
- action-adventure SF series of his own design. (NO story suggestions, please.)
- 826 message(s) total.

- "Onward" is nice...and something that had simply not occured to me.
- There was one other earlier that I thought was good, and I'll have to go back
- and check it out. I hope to have the new disposition of the newsletter
- announced some time after I return from WesterCon, at which I'll be doing a
- full B5 presentation.
-
- As to the reference above to me as the Creator with a capital C... let's
- keep it lower-case. If I were the Creator with a capital C, I would have more
- hair, a deeper voice, and a *much* snappier wardrobe.

- Well, if we go with that, it'd have to be ONWARD: The Official Newsletter
- of Babylon 5 (or somesuch). Still considering.
-
- We think we've locked down (in our own minds, at least) all but two of
- our main characters. Put their photos all up together on the wall of my
- office in the B5 wing, and they look good together...a nice mix of faces,
- varying age ranges, not a "pretty-boy" or bimbo in the bunch. They all have
- faces with character, the majority of them come from classical training,
- Juliard or the Royal Shakespearean company...really a good bunch. With luck,
- we'll have these nailed down by sometime next week, though I won't be able to
- announce anything until Warners is ready to do so...we have to coordinate this
- stuff.
-
- Had one minor production-heart-attack today, but I think it's nothing we
- can't get over. Meanwhile, the EFX are looking better and better and better.
- Next week I meet with the sound guys to start mapping out our strategies.
-
- And for those in the Phoenix area...the B5 presentation is scheduled for
- WesterColt on Saturday at 1 p.m.

- Catherine Adair ended up with another gig, so we now have Ann Bruice, who
- was tied in our decision for a costumer for the pilot, but in that case she
- was busy on another project. Now she's available, and she is doing *terrific*
- work. Just amazing stuff...her work on the Grey Council is particularly nice.

- Tim: no one's said a word about it to us, and I don't think it'll really
- have an effect on us, one way or another.

- Probably late summer. We have an awful lot of time before airdate, so
- there's really no rush to get the cameras running, which is nice.
