Oh my god, I AM OVERCOME. I just finished watching the three part Farscape episode, Look at the Princess, eps 11-13 of season 2. And I just. WOW. THE KISS. THEIR FACES. THE KISS. THEIR FACES. DID I MENTION OVERCOME?!???

Also, I was in FLOODS when John hugged the image of his daughter. OH GOD MY HEART.

Pictures!

That tongue thing? REALLY HOT.

LOOK AT HER FACE OMG *SQUISH*

The series of episodes as a whole was pretty damn cool. Scorpius is very neat in terms of how he's performed and everything, but his role is a little odd - I mean, WHY is he so frelling interested in wormholes? Why was he just allowed to chill out on the planet like that? That was a bit confusing. Also, why did Aeryn randomly get a yen for rock climbing?

Confusing questions aside, I very much liked the guest cast - the princess was very sweet, and I liked the empress, and the undercover Peacekeeper chick was HOT, yo, and the princess's lover? SO ADORABLE. (Can you tell I don't pay much attention to names? :P) The asshole little brother was annoying and whiny as fuck, but pretty funny as a consequence sometimes. And the whole dilemma was really cool and well played out. The Moya side story was a bit odd, but interesting for Zhaan.

Returning to the darling John and Aeryn (I have the urge to call them PILOTS!! like I do Kara and Lee, because they both technically are!) I really adored their first scene in the first part of the three parter. Him smelling her hair! Her scenting her hair to see if he'd notice! The kiss omg the kiss! And then, oh Aeryn, don't run :( They are so angsty and PERFECT, eeeee!

I'm so glad I decided to stay up for this. They just. OWN ME OMG. *flaps around*

I so do not want spoil you, but definitely keep watching. You will not be disappointed.

I love the visuals, by the way. Makes me miss the old Farscape days!

Be wary that there is a little fourth season slump, but I think it works out okay in the end. I think it's better to be prepared for that, though. YAY! Farscape!

Mostly related to this post:

I'm four episodes into SGA. It's...interesting. Not much substance yet, which means I should stop looking for it and be pleasantly surprised if/when it shows up. But that wasn't why I commented.

The producers of SG1 and SGA originally wanted John Sheppard to be played by Ben Browder. DISCUSS.

SGA gives me JOY. Not thinky thoughts, not melancholia, but JOY. Sheer, unadulterated joy. I've started the series over with my best friend, and you're right - there isn't substance. It's all about the sheer awesome that is John Sheppard, the adorkable unique brand of geek that is Rodney McKay, and just all the cracktastic trappings of a sci-fi show that doesn't often take itself all that seriously. It goes deeper than the surface sometimes, don't worry, but not always by any means.

Oh, wow! I think I have heard that somewhere. He would have been a completely different Shep! Ben is hot and goofy, same as Joe, but Joe's just... got this California laziness to him, the drawl, the eyebrows, the slouch, and also a reserve, a veiled hostility hovering just beneath the surface. Ben is just... not that! Wow. It's hard to imagine SGA with him. And there probably wouldn't be McShep! *flailyhands* Thank god for Joe *clings*

This will be a good summer show for me, I can tell. No thinking required.

I still haven't gotten over his utter goofiness. I wasn't expecting him to be that much of a dork. And then on top of that he's got this accent which in most places wouldn't be an accent at all, but since everyone else is Canadian he sounds positively Southern sometimes and it makes me laugh.

I think Ben as Sheppard would have been even weirder since the role at the beginning is a lot like Crichton, and Ben hadn't even finished Farscape when SGA started (that's why he didn't get the part). It was weird enough for most Farscape fans to see him and Claudia on SG1 even with different characters, especially since there used to be a kind of rivalry between the two shows. I mean, imagine if Supernatural ended after four seasons (gasp!) and Jensen and Jared BOTH went over to Smallville and played different characters. The mind boggles.

The tongue thing? VERY HOT.

I forgot to say, my flatmate's started watching BSG and got me on the bandwagon and I now know who this Kara and Lee is and I ADORE THEM. Although when I first saw them together I totally had a thing for Cheif/Lee XD Don't hurt me! So basically I'm trading my John and Aeryn for your Kara and Lee! ♥
