the farscape renaissance

I'm going through my yearly Farscape Renaissance right now, which, funnily enough, usually coincides with the busiest time in my school year. But no matter! For this show is pretty, and witty, and crazy, and fun, and heartbreaking, and romantic, and wonderful. And just happens to have muppets. Anywho, I was watching some of my favourite season one episodes, and lo and behold, have decided to grace this LJ with a picspam. *g*

"'Til the Blood Runs Clear"

Caps from farscapecaps.com. Cleaned up by me.

I've also been listening to FAR too many dvd commentaries with Ben Browder and Claudia Black, but it's really, REALLY, hard not to fall in love with them both whenever I do. They're both hysterical, both passionate and intelligent, have so much love for the show and obviously so much love and respect for each other. Kinda just makes me wish Farscape had gone on forever.

*holds out for webisodes*

Also -- The Office! I really liked last night's episode, so much so in fact, that it almost made up for there being NO PUSHING DAISES THIS WEEK. Almost. But I just kill myself anytime Jim and Dwight form any kind of alliance. It's wonderful.

*huggles Office writers*

So thank you, television in general, for key distraction time in this essay-ridden part of the year. It's awesome.

...I think I'm going to go watch Little Dorrit now.

Jim/Dwight alliances are pretty much the highlight of any and all Office episodes. Their dynamic is so fabulous!

God, I know! I need to watch "The Alliance" again. Or just anytime Jim comes out with, "Absolutely I do." :DDD

Thanks for the great pics, Claudia looked stunning in that episode. And I know what you mean about the commentaries; I made sure to get the Starburst edition of the DVDs because they have more commentaries on them, especially from Claudia and Ben, than the original Australian disks.

Aeryn lives!

This may be my favoritest show ever. EVER!

Seriously, the quality of this show on every level was far above anything else on the air at the time. Even their worst episodes were insanely better than most of the shows on our screens today.

Thank you. You can picspam me anytime.

Ooh I had to come back for another look. You have piqued my interest in a BIG WAY, you know. Kinda looks like the remake of Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy with all the colours and the muppets! (Which reminds me, girl!crush #205483910 (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/535645/storage/zooey-deschanel-instyle0306-1.jpg). ...Wow, I think you're right: we have a TYPE!)

HUZZUH! The more people who get sucked into the crazy that is Farscape the happier I am! And speaking of girlcrushes--I have yet to meet anyone who watches Farscape and doesn't think Claudia Black is the greatest thing in the history of greatness. :)))
