I think a lot of the "What?" moments that don't make sense in this, can be attributed to this being "Season 1" of an untested SCIFI series and producers/executives are Expecting to see certain chestnuts in their SCIFI. JMS had to set his stage before he could get serious with the series, as I'm sure he was leaned on a lot for certain script elements. One can't write a huge epic without earning your board room lumps first.


And well, maybe JMS had to get some cliches out of his keyboard before he could get the real Meaty stories out.
