Watching Farscape from the beginning
Jun. 1st, 2008 02:25 pmThis weekend thanks to my brother, who has loaned me his collection of Farscape DVDs I've begun watching Farscape. This is my second time watching the first season ever. I first watched in 2002 so while I do remember bits ad pieces it's been long enough that I don't remember every detail. Which was a problem when I was watching B5 recently. I've watched that series through at least once a year for the past five or six years. I put it aside midway through the first season. I found that I wasn't so much watching it as I was waiting for favorite scenes to come up. Not a good way to watch a show, in my opinion. I need a few more years before I can watch it again Anyrate, with Farscape that isn't a problem. I'm enjoying watching Farscape again after all these years. I just finished the planet of the lotus eaters episode.The episode before it was the Groundhog Day episode. I suppose it's good to get all the overused television SF plots out of the way in the first season. Not that I object to using cliches, cliched episode plots can be quite good if done well and Farscape did it better than some I've seen.
I remember being a bit distracted by the backdrops and the obvious muppets the first time I watched this stuff back in 2002. I'm not really getting that this time around. I'm able to ignore the Art Deco accents on the Command Carrier. :)
Anyrate, I guess I'll watch the next disc and think about supper.
