oyceterSpoil me and die slowly from fork wounds. A vague disclaimer is no one's friend.
Durka returns! Of course, this probably would have been more exciting if I knew who Durka were. Presumably, they may have introduced him earlier on, but since I watched the first half of Farscape during senior year of college, I don't remember much. Oh well. I'm not that tempted to go back and rewatch either, sorry.
The brain/behavior modification thing freaks me out.
I liked this better than a good deal of Farscape episodes that I've seen, but it still didn't knock me out of the water. It's really, really nitpicky, but the funny slo-mo action sequences just totally crack me up and drag me out of the suspense bit. And I still don't like Zhaan much. Chiana is slightly more interesting, although I am a bit tired of the bug-like female thing, even though it's not fair because Farscape did do it earlier than some other shows. I hope she did something really bad to be locked up like that, just because it would be interesting. Heh. I am cruel to the fictional worlds I adopt!
I am, alas, not much caught up by Rygel angst, even though I rather like Rygel. I like Rygel most when he's a scheming, self-serving bastard.
Want more Aeryn. Like Aeryn.
Am bored of torturers who talk waaaay too much and obviously have a megalomania issue. Am also bored of villains who have such high self-esteem that just insulting them with deter them from their plans.
I think I am not very attached to the characters right now, and as such, am not very interested in what happens to them. Well, except Aeryn. I like Aeryn. But we all sort of figured I would, ne? ;)

Mon, Jul. 18th, 2005 03:41 pm (UTC)S4 of Farscape is like S5 of Babylon 5 -- some of the worst eps ever, followed by some of the heartrendingly best. Bizarre. Then again, noone ever said Farscape was predictable!
