Farscape: "Bad Timing"

Aug 15, 2005 22:29

That's it for the series. I have PK Wars sitting on my DVD shelf waiting to be watched, and I'm still devastated.

*rages at Sci Fi execs*

Ask me to decide which is the best science-fiction show ever when Battlestar Galactica has had four seasons.

Sigh.

I don't want it to be over.

Dude, Ronon is trying, but Teyla just isn't ready.

Sigh.

I've set that one aside for at least a week or two.

At the moment, Teyla is saving Atlantis from the Morwen Sues.

Now, imagine this is 2003. You don't KNOW there's going to be a PK Wars....

Personally, I think death might be too good for them.

morwen_peredhil August 15 2005, 19:40:17 UTC

I agree. I would be having hysterics if it were 2003.

lyssie August 15 2005, 19:45:15 UTC

*coughs* I didn't have hysterics, but I was rather, ah, upset.

*wanders in to do the obligatory OMG I WUZ THERE post*

That was not a happy time. Although I actually found "Bad Timing" easier to cope with than the infamous chat where Kemper and co. leaked the news of the cancellation, because they all sounded so devastated.

Dunno if you've got the extras, with the footage of the last day of shooting, because ... yeah. We're fans, but it was their baby.

By the time of "Bad Timing", we knew in advance that it would be a cliffhanger, and I was kind of proud of them for sticking to their guns, going out on such a resolutely Farscape note, and refusing to edit out the cliffhanger to let Skiffy off the hook.

I cried my eyes out, but at least I knew there was a horrible cliffhanger coming and that the miniseries followed.

PK Wars is really awesome, and I'm happy that they were able to make it, but it was so great it made me wish again they'd been able to make a fifth season. I watched Farscape over a few weeks in May-June, and I absolutely loved it. And I really understood why people had a lasting bitterness vis-à-vis the Sci-Fi channel, because damn! I went into this knowing that there were "only" four seasons and a miniseries, and I was still bitter to see it end. It even reduced my BSG obsession for a while.

Ya see, this is why I've tried to stay away from All-Things-Farscape. Because it really makes me depressed. *remembers and cries*

God, that show was frelling awesome. I, literally, think I cried in front of the TV (both at the airing of Bad Timing and PK Wars) because it was over. *pauses* And I didn't think I could become any more of a loser until I typed that statement.

Thank the gods for BSG and the Stargates though. Although I don't believe that either Stargate will ever live up to the superiority of Farscape (sorry to fans on the 'Stargate4eva!' side of things) I hope that BSG will be Farscapian in nature at least to the point where it will go down in Scifi history. I have hope thusfar :)
