Re:*SPOILERS * What should have happened to Ivanova?

Ah rebirth ceremony
Anyway, who said Ivonova turned lesbian- it could just have been interpreted as sisterly love, which is pretty much how the interaction was played.
I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree. For my brother and myself, most of the Talia orientated episodes were the boring ones (there were a few Jewels, but still…)
It would have been good if dark talia had come back and added to the plot in seasons 3 & 4 (you could argue about the Jerry Doyle thing, but I still feel that the plot could have benefitted significantly). The ‘masterstroke’ just wasn’t capitalised on IMHO. She could have become as evil as Bester, but whereas Bester had the charisma, Talia could have had the pured hatred and would have contrasted strongly with the naive (sp?) well mannered Talia from the earlier seasons.
As for warren, according to the commentary, the only reason that JMS had him in was that the WB execs wanted a hotshot elite pilot character (fortunately he got minimum screen time). Then they released their hold in S2, and the show went from strength to strength.
Agree about Morden and Sinclair going at the right time.
