Farscape and Old Man Pants

[lesbiassparrow]

Why does Crichton wear old man trousers in the beginning of Farscape? Because he does, and they are scary and hideous and very distracting.

So far I've finished watching through 'Back and Back and Back to the Future' and 'Thank God it's Friday. Again.' I'm rather hoping that D'Argo gets smarter, we don't see Rygel's (sp?) bodily fluids play a key role in the narrative ever again, and that they cast better actors in the guest roles. I really like the main cast but lusty Scorpion woman in Back to the Future was particularly bad. Not to mention her mad leaping around in the set up to the fight scene with Aeryn looked like Monty Python on acid.

Blue priestess is still my favourite, though new second favourite is Aeryn. Not so keen on D'Argo as I think he's not sure if he wants to be Worf or not.

Good things come to those who wait. Like leather pants, which he fills out very nicely.

S1 isn't the best season and "Back and Back and Back to the Future" is one of the all-time worst episodes, so don't judge the series by it. You have some better episodes coming up soon, such as "PK Tech Girl," "The Flax," and "A Human Reaction." I assume you've already been warned about "Jeremiah Crichton," which is...not good. Not good at all.

I am one of the few people who actually likes Back and back and back to the future, and even I suggest staying away from Jeremiah Crichton. My advice is to just skip it.

And yes, D'Argo does grow and change tremendously, in the process becoming one of my favorites.

The first time I saw John in leather pants though...oh my. A moment to be savored.

Back and back had a not bad concept, but Scorpion lady was just too awful for it to work. No wonder Aeryn looked very unimpressed.

And now I half want to see Jeremiah Crichton to see how bad it gets.

Old man pants must go! That's all I can say.

Bring on the leather pants, I say! Because those ones he is wearing now are just scary. Thanks for the warning about 'Jeremiah Crichton' which I hadn't recieved before; sadly now I half want to see the episode to see if it is as bad as you say.

Go ahead and watch it, if only to savor its WTFness.

Okay, so now I've seen pictures of Crichton's beard in this episode and suddenly I'm a bit scared.

The beard is only the beginning of the suck. It must be seen to be believed.

I just want to echo the sentiment that Jeremiah Chrichton should be skipped. Otherwise, I liked season one much better after I watched the whole series and then went back and watched season one again.

While your wish regarding Rygel cannot be granted, I think the aforementioned leather pants should more than compensate.

Season one reminds me of season one of Angel - the stories seem to vary hugely in quality but I like the cast and the concept enough to watch even through the dire episodes.

I am a bit disappointed in the Rygel news...these must be some mighty fine leather pants that I will be seeing if they'll compensate for that.

Well I can't speak to the quality of the leather...but there's certainly a mighty fine ass filling them :)....
