Babylon 5 specific gags

The Sci Fi Channel started airing Babylon 5 in September of 2000. It soon became an event that attracted a dedicated core group of Cappers to it day after day. Several Cappers who were part of that group were alexgariepy, GlitterRock, Beedo, YingYang, Mr_Grant, EnochF, PrezGAR, MrAtomik and UnReality, to name a few. With very few exceptions, that group was present for the entire first-run of all five seasons as well as the TV-movies. A majority of them stayed on for the second-run as well, but after that the numbers began to dwindle away.

With having that many familiar faces appearing day after day with the same material, a number of running jokes grew for Babylon 5-capping itself. Below are examples of the most popular:

• Bertha
• Bester and Chekov
• Dr Franklin and the Banana Boat
• Easy Lyta
• Giant envelopes
• Handsome Sheridan
• Huzzah!
• Jerry Doyle For Congress
• Kung Fu Lennier
• Hero/Villain/Extra Profiles
• Lennier sending people to the Cornfield
• Lt Warren "Dead Meat" Keffer
• Mr. No-Nose
• The Supreme Sh*t of the universe
• Wooden Sinclair
