Farscape, Season 3

May 30, 2008 08:14

Probably because I watched S3 in a somewhat disjointed fashion, I'm still processing how I feel about it as a whole. It certainly didn't have the clunkers that marred S1 and S2. But wow, S3 was difficult to watch.

But what you really want to know is how I feel about the episodes ... )

Go away, Jothee.
Yes, indeed.

Jool is going to drive me completely and totally crazy if she doesn't stop screaming.
Enjoy!

I'm sick and tired of Rygel wanting to bail ship every two minutes though.
Ha, for real.

I did NOT see the two John thing coming.
And it's so non-pointed! Like one John comes, and then another John comes, and at first, you're like, "Uh, am I seeeing things? Did they run the same footage twice?" There's no DUN DUN DUN!

Then there's the return of Aeryn's mother, which, wow.
Who rivals Lianne Mars for the Worst Mother Ever Award.

It's so interesting to contemplate how far Crais has come since the Premiere.
Right?! He became one of my favorite characters, what the hell??

Basically a Scorpius episode, and while I think he's a good villain, I wasn't that interested in seeing his backstory. I like that he has revenge as a motivation - and not revenge against our heroes.
But what about the John in his head? I loved this episode.

Okay, so this was unquestionably a stupid episode.
WORST EPISODE EVER.

The writers were on craaaack for this one.
Yeeeeah.

And of course the final culmination in Crais and Talyn's sacrifice and damn, that was good.
Yeah.

New insane military commander! I can't believe that this wasn't the season finale. They blew up a command carrier!
I KNOW!!! I THINK THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I SAID:
Which: that wasn't the season finale? Hell, that wasn't the series finale? This ragtag group of infamous outlaws blew up a Peacekeeper command carrier.

And then Moya through a wormhole! And John abandoned! And everyone scattered! Yikes.
That's putting it mildly.

Enjoy!
At least she became marginally less annoying.

There's no DUN DUN DUN!
I know! It was all standard creepy Farscape and then BAM. Two Johns. Whoa.

Who rivals Lianne Mars for the Worst Mother Ever Award.
Lord, yes. At least Lianne never tried to kill Veronica.

He became one of my favorite characters, what the hell??
Mine too! I don't know when it happened, but at some point I looked around and started wondering when did I begin to like Crais? The hell?

But what about the John in his head?
Moderately interesting. But then you like Baltar and Six.

WORST EPISODE EVER.
Oh, no it wasn't. The Locket and several others were far worse. Of course, I'm much more of an Aeryn/John junkie than you. And Crais was good in this episode. Just ignore Stark.

I THINK THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I SAID
Hee. Farscape does like having it's big two/three-parters as the penultimate episodes, doesn't it?
