This is the weirdest episode so far. Aldous Gajic is a human who wanders around space looking for the Holy Grail and he winds up on Babylon 5 for some reason, but I can’t remember why because the idiocy of his mission eclipses any other purpose he might have.
He’s searching for the Holy Grail.
In space.
Which is silly, because everyone knows the Holy Grail is in a hidden fortress in the Canyon of the Crescent Moon, surrounded by holy booby traps. Does the name Indiana Jones mean nothing to this guy?
And he has a British accent and a staff, which I guess are supposed to make Aldous Gajic seem wise like Obi Wan. Obi Wan with a staff. Who carries a wooden staff in the future?
Aldous Gajic’s foil is Deuce, a slickery criminal in the seedy underbelly of Babylon 5 who has a tentacle monster dressed up as Ambassador Kosh running around eating people’s brains.
That’s not the weird part about Deuce. Deuce is played by William Sanderson, who I just can’t buy as a baddie.
Dude, you’re not “Deuce”. You’re Larry from Newhart. You and your brother Darryl, and your other brother Darryl live in a shack in Vermont. Stop trying to be a bad guy. You can put on a black leather trench coat and slick your hair back as much as you want – you’re still Larry.
What kind of a bad guy name is “Deuce” anyway? That’s something the nerdy kid picks out of a comic book and thinks is really threatening, when it’s just sad. Go drink some Zima, Deuce. That’ll scare ‘em.
I don’t know who “‘em” are, but that Zima has ‘em shaking.
But, only because ‘em has epilepsy.
OK, that was just wrong.
You know that dream where you’re trudging through Tatooine with no water and you’re so hot and thirsty that it seems like a good idea to let the Pit of Carkoon have you because being digested over a thousand years inside a Sarlaac just seems like a better prospect?
What? I’m the only one who has that dream?
Yeah, well that desert is Babylon 5 and I’m looking for a Pit of Carkoon to throw myself into. I remembered this show being good. Now that it’s not so good and is really pretty crappy, I have to go back and re-evaluate all kinds of stuff. Does Flash Gordon suck as bad as I think? Do I really not like lima beans? What about carrot cake?
