I sent this earlier to JMS and byron at the.station and thought
I would share it here
To JMS and Byron....er...um..Robin..
You, know I sit here amazed at you and myself. That
a TV show - that paragon of entertainment - could move
me so. I haven't cried....but I feel stunned. The integrity
of the writing and the strength of Robin's performance
has left me speechless........
What is it about you JMS that your writing
gets to me so, moves me and makes me feel more than
life itself sometimes. I'm amazed that I, a 36
year old woman, is even sitting here writing this.
About a character that doesn't exist in a world that
lives in your mind. I'm amazed, too, at your bravery
and integrity in writing - there aren't many producers
who would kill off as many fine characters as you!
And I think what makes me more mad is that I can't
fault you for it. Each character is true to himself
and consistent with his basic beliefs........Those you
paint as evil become good and vice versa. And yet,
they remain true to themselves. If only this were
real life!
Byron..e.r um.... Robin - you were earthshatteringly
beautiful and Pat as well. I still have to sort my
feelings out about this and decide what it means to me
- but I am amazed that it does mean as much to me as
it does. I feel as though a cathartic experience happened
that touched something inside of me that needed very much
to be touched. (Long stories there)....... I'd like to take
a moment though and thank you for your web page and your
obvious devotion to the character and your job as an actor.
There aren't many like you and suffice it to say I will be
there for you as a loyal fan....I will always
remember Byron.
JMS - I miss Sinclair, I miss Ivanova and I
did cry over Marcus. And now...Byron. There's a
message in there for me and I'm going to go away and
dream up my life again. Thank you forever for your
gift and for sharing it with us....My emotions are a
testament to your talent.
There =- that's done it, I'm crying now.
All my love and support to both of you and the
B5 cast......
Many warm and kind regards
Mish
