‘The Thirteenth Tale’ Preview
Mmmmm.
‘Helix’ trailer
CDC field officers face a pathogen in an Arctic Circle base that seems to create zombies. There is a head in a jar and blood. Play God. Pay the price. This looks good.
Best Lines:
“This thing doesn’t kill, it annihilates.”
“What’s it doing to him?”
“It’s changing him.”
“Into what?”

Cleared out a 1996 tape. It had a ‘Star Trek Deep Space Nine’ ep ‘For The Cause’ on it. Sisko is hot for Kasidy Yates. Eddington warns him that she is a dangerous Maquis agent. Sisko responds to this with unreasonable behaviour and claims that Yates is being maliciously vilified. The Cardassian/Klingon war drags on. Garak bores in a subplot. In the twist ending, Yates is a Maquis agent but so is Eddington. Shame Eddington and his deluded self-belief can’t actually act. Sisko is icy, still and angry in response. This was dull.
Then came a season 2 ’Earth: Final Conflict’ ep ’Redemption’ in which Siobhan’s CVI breaks down. She’s Liam’s mother, sort of. This is a clip show as she hallucinates. Crap.
Then came a season 3 ’Forever Knight’ ep ’Hearts of Darkness’ in which a woman has DID and one of her alters is a vampire. The cops more or less laugh at a possible victim of a sex crime. Urs has flashbacks to her past. Tracy and Vachon bore. This was sleazy.
Best Line:
“How thoughtful of you to bring your own coaster.”
Finally there was a ’Babylon 5’ ep ’Z’Ha’Dum’ in which Anna Sheridan (Melissa Gilbert) shows up to derail the ridiculous Sheridan/Delenn pairing. If Morden the walking bottle of Lynx was alive, Sheridan should have guessed Anna was too. Anna tells Sheridan to come to Z’Ha’Dum. G’Kar hands over some nukes. This has clunky exposition and gloopy dialogue that people either shout or whisper hammily so it sounds suitably epic. Londo is verbally incontinent and Sheridan should have died in this ep. Anna supplies some back-story in which IPX were baddies, something never followed up on.
B5 has clunky ‘futuristic’ technology. Sheridan and Anna head to Z’Ha’Dum via dated SFX. Sheridan meets Morden and the local yob Justin who can’t act. Why is there camomile tea on Z’Ha’Dum? The Shadows fly by B5 and abduct Garibaldi. Justin spews badly acted back-story. What the Shadows did to Anna was deeply disturbing but it was all about Sheridan’s manpain. Sheridan drops two nukes on Anna through a big glass dome. Why is there a big glass dome on Z’Ha’Dum? Anna screams, Sheridan the fat boy tries to fly and G’Kar narrates. This was good.
Best Lines:
“We assumed she would not serve. Perhaps we were wrong.”
“A world out on the rim.”
“Z’Ha’Dum.”
“She made the mistake of choosing badly.”
“You’re never quite whole again.”
“She can never come back. But I can love you as well as she did.”
“Born in pain.”
