And speaking of Crichton playing RPS with himself, what the heck's going to happen with 2 Crichtons?
AWESOMENESS. Awesome-ness.
And, yep, Carsanova guy from Look at the Princess is totally the dream Terminator/orderly. I noticed that during the pilot. He hides his Australian accent well.
Its great that people are still discovering Farscape. Its truly a unique and great series. Enjoy the ride, its beyond words and an amazing vision! It's a shame but all good things have to come to an end. I look forward to reading the rest of your thoughts on Farscape! Enjoy it while you "Frelling" can.
(A cut-tag would be nice for this too for people still catching up on Farscape. Just saying.)
And speaking of Crichton playing RPS with himself, what the heck's going to happen with 2 Crichtons? *DOES NOT SAY ANYTHING*
I do love the RPS continuity, though.
But he became such a fleshed-out character - creepy, interesting, fun. It's amazing what they did with him. I don't quite understand why he's still in John's brain, though. I thought he killed off the residual Scorpy? I love Scorpius too. Crichton/Scorpius is one of the best hero/villain relationships I've ever seen. As for still being in his head, well, you'll see. I think. I don't remember the details. I was reminded of Baltar and Six, obviously.
And speaking of Scorpius and humor... "Won't Get Fooled Again" is the funnest episode I've seen. So great. So full of crack.
"My side, your side, my side, your side" Stark. I like this guy even though he freaks me out. Stark's catchphrase is the best part of him.
I hope that new chick with the shedding red hair doesn't accidentally

Between you and miniglik I'm getting the feeling it's, you know, maybe kind of interesting what happens. Maybe.

Yeah the way Scorpius was developed was very unexpected. I guess he really is like head!Six the way he just lingers there in John's brain. At last John gets to taunt him now instead of the other way around.
Jool is irritating Jool, yes, couldn't remember her name. The only interesting thing about her so far is the shedding. That scream is already driving me nuts. It better at least be useful at some point.
Between you and miniglik I'm getting the feeling it's, you know, maybe kind of interesting what happens. Maybe. Just a little. It's twice the Crichton! Woohoo!
At last John gets to taunt him now instead of the other way around. Wait till you get to "Incubator."

I wanted to say: "it'll rip your heart out and stomp it into a bloody pulp, and then continue to stomp on it for many, many episodes to come. And yet you'll come back for more tasty, tasty angst."
I've always figured Farscape's where RDM got the idea.
But I believe they explained it already. Or they sort of did. Here's what I get: the chip was in his brain so long it became part of his personality. Basicly Crichton is now schizophrenic (in the t.v. sense, which isn't necessarily scientifically accurate). In "Season of Death" he gets control of the other personality (Harvey). Now, Harvey's still there, and doesn't control John's actions, but he's still a part of John's brain function.
And speaking of Scorpius and humor... "Won't Get Fooled Again" is the funnest episode I've seen.
You know, I don't think of it as funny any more. I mean, it IS, but it's also really, really dark. It's a really well constructed episode, and I am always interested in the way the Scarren is systematically screwing up John's sense of self. Oh, and finding all the little Wizard of Oz references.
Stark's catchphrase is the best part of him. Oh, see, I loved it the first time. But then it's SO

That's what I got too, but they had a scene where someone told John that the chip was gone and it was just residual Scorpy in his head that he could get rid of and he had a little in-hi-head fight here he beat him. So I expected that to be the end of ol' Scorpy, but it obviously wasn't. I guess that was just the point where Crichton took control. Schizophrenia is a good way to look at it. I like how Aeryn knows that he still talks to Scorpius. She's the sly one.
I haaaaaaaaaated "The Locket" too. What can I say? I am a sucker for sap sometimes.
And I agree with P-C about the John/Aeryn and John/
( ... )
But it's never been this typical will they/won't they kind of thing. The first time they sleep together in "Human Reaction" is really such a non-event and I wasn't even sure it actually happened until Aeryn mentions it in a later episode. And we just get these little moments - a look, a kiss, the locket, a casual "we can have sex". Good stuff. Very well done. If you get the chance, you should try out some of the commentaries after you finish. Anything with Browder is usually realling interesting, as far as character development/story arc

But I thought that might be a bit spoilery. :p
