There's little I could say about Jarvis' reviews for TV Guide that has not already been said about Jack the Ripper. —jms
|

I paid for this college education, and by god I'm going to use it for SOMEthing.
—jms

And yes, I've read The Bible cover to cover, twice. Some good moral tales, an awful lot of blood and violence, some real slow parts (anyone who can make it all the way through Numbers and Deuteronomy has my unbridled respect), some real potboilers, a few plot holes and an inconsistent hero, but overall, commendable reading. —jms

Since the universe is curved, there cannot be any truly straight answers.

Given that, in contravention to general Talmudic practice, Ivanova got involved with Talia, I think it is fair to say that she has eaten many things that are not kosher. —jms
|
Yes, indeed, you've sussed it out. I am from the future. Unfortunately, I'm only from 15 seconds into the future, so it doesn't do me a bit of good, except being able to more accurately cut out commercials while taping The Simpsons. —jms
|
Who would I compare Kosh to? He's an ALIEN. He thinks like an alien. He shouldn't be comparable to ANY human. (Well, maybe Buddy Hackett.) —jms

One mongoose can love another; that won't change its attitude toward pythons.

I think the key element to any religion is that you gotta know how to make a good entrance. —jms

What I love -- knowing that our EFX guys are now doing the EFX for Voyager and to some extent DS9 -- is seeing a ST fan's letter in the current SF Universe saying how much he hates B5's EFX and prefers Voyager's because we use CGI which looks faker than ST's EFX... which are, in fact, being done in large measure in EXACTLY the same way, with the SAME EFX that we pioneered, by the SAME PEOPLE. —jms
|
My philosophy: find what it is you want to say, walk in the room, say it, and get the hell out. —jms

I go for what someone at the BBC once said: "There are some people we WANT to offend."
—jms

I've been getting this a lot from people lately. "Oh, I just knew you from B5, I didn't know you had done (fill in the gap) until I was watching my old tapes the other day and...." Sometimes it's Murder, She Wrote, but more often it's The Real Ghostbusters or Jayce or He-Man or Twilight Zone or Captain Power or, well, pick one...which invariably gets followed by, "I grew up as a kid watching your stuff." —jms, 27 Aug 2000, in rec.arts.sf.tv.babylon5.moderated

Don't look at me like that. I told you it was sick and wrong. I'm as horrified as you are. You want to know what's inside the mind of a writer? Stuff like that. Also spiders, voles, leftover black light posters from The Sixties, and several balls of string. —jms, on psycomic.com, 1/1/2001

When the cat calls at midnight, your shorts will ignite. —jms
