Spaceman in a Crater
Wednesday 2 May 2007 on FOX
A mysterious dead man is found in a crater with his body flattened as if he had fallen from the sky. Brennan and Booth try to find out who the man was while Hodgins comes up with different conspiracy theories involving aliens. Booth and Brennan find out the man was an astronaut who was...

In order to explain her four-month hiatus from "Babylon 5," Andrea told fans, "I've been having a mad, passionate affair with Bester!" Bester was her character's nemesis on B5.

Andrea's Birthdate : There is some confusion as to Ms. Thompson's birthday. Some state it is January 6, 1960; others believe it is May 22, 1959, as listed here. The discrepancy is likely due to her listing at IMDB with the 1960 date. However, her official web site lists her birthday as in 1959.

Andrea Thompson [on acting]: Acting is a sense of wonder and magic and mystery for me and when life takes me on a new journey, I simply remember the smile my first ballet recital put on my face and I move forward.

Andrea Thompson: It's only a house when it's filled with people you love.

Andrea Thompson (on B5 and Talia, Ivanova): The way it was written and the way it was done was that we had an affair. I figured that if it had been a man there wouldn't have been a problem with playing a big kiss, but they didn't want to do it with a woman. ....There was a sexual relationship between Talia and Commander Ivanova. It was edited so that it was not blatant. But that was exactly what happened. It had been talked about from the very beginning.
(edit)
Andrea Thompson (on B5 and Claudia Christian): So they rolled the first take, and I walk out, and I say, "I'm Talia Winters, licensed commercial psychopath!" Claudia just roared and broke into laughter. The whole crew did, and I had to join them because it was really kind of funny. That really broke the ice, and we went on to shoot the scene. I went on to be very close with Claudia. We spent many afternoons drinking champagne after that.
(edit)
Andrea Thompson (on Talia and Ivonova): I think with Pat (Patricia Tallman, who played the first telepath on B5), they actually planned for her character to be gay, so when I started on the show, the cast was all sitting around talking, and somebody said 'Oh, by the way, did you know your character was gay?' I said really, that's news to me, so when Joe was next on set, I said 'Joe, I hear I'm gay'. he said, 'No, actually you're going to be bisexual' .... I have no problem with it. I don't look on homosexuality as an aberration. It's just they way they're born, and how could any relationship between two people in a committed relationship be wrong, regardless of gender?
