Talia Winters: Villain Era? 😈 | Babylon 5 2x19 Podcast | Divided Loyalties

Babylon 5 Season 2 Episode 19, "Divided Loyalties," broke us in the best and worst ways possible. Jenny, Jenn, Gus, and Ali dig into the Talia Winters reveal, the Ivanova relationship that was apparently canon this whole time, and what Lyta Alexander's return means for the rest of the season. This one got chaotic immediately. ✨ We spent a significant chunk of time processing the Ivanova and Talia situation, which, for the record, was not a sleepover. It was never a sleepover. JMS confirmed it, the soft focus camera confirmed it, and the silk pajamas confirmed it. The 90s just made everyone second-guess themselves. We also dig into the Lurkers Guide, what Talkashima was originally supposed to be, why Jason Ironheart couldn't have fixed any of this, and Gus almost getting canceled (again). Jenn brings the industry perspective on what JMS was doing narratively with this reveal, including how far back the mirror imagery goes and the Harlan Ellison "pages on the wall" philosophy of writing a show you can never rewind. Two TV veterans, two first-timers, and a LOT of feelings about Psi Corps. #Babylon5 #BabbleOnPod #SciFi #BabylonFive #TaliaWinters ✅ Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/@LezbiNerdy/?sub_confirmation=1 ☕ Support the Channel (Ko-fi): https://ko-fi.com/lezbinerdy ????
