i love commentary tracks on DVDs. i like to gather factoids about the production, about how movies and tv work, and about the creative process. i like craft; it's a whole other layer of entertainment for me. i've been working through Babylon 5 in order (i've seen fistfuls of episodes, but not the full story arc) and i'm partway through season two. this set of packaging sends you to the special features when you have completed viewing the last episode of the disc. so i decided to rewatch one with JMS commenting. which is quite good, since he's the creative force, but i just had to turn the damn thing off. he's telling plot spoilers not just from later in the season, but from later in the series. i suppose i shouldn't expect to be protected from 10 year old pop culture, but damn. no more special features for me until i'm done. sigh.
