Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I watched most of season one of Farscape, and I liked it, but honestly, all the talk about the POV character going insane has me worried that I should skip the rest. What I've seen of later seasons was too weird to believe, coming at it without context. I'm debating buying the DVDs so I don't have to wait for Netflix to deliver.

It's best seen in order; the buildup to crazy makes plenty of sense that way.

Okay, I trust you. At least, I've already seen the last episode, so I won't be totally heartbroken when I get there.

completely and totally. originally, i had tried to get into the series during season 3 or so and i hated it. i had no idea what was going on. then i had people i trusted(television-wise) singing its praises constantly. so i decided to give it another shot and start from the beginning and i wanted to do it before the mini aired in case i fell as in love with it as my friends.
i'm not sorry about that decision. i never expected to love it as much as i do. the transition of john from fish out of water to just...crazy is completely fluid and you can't really begrudge him his craziness.

BTW, I noticed that the first season of SGA is running in syndication this year. (On UPN in the Chicago area.)

He's not Drusilla insane. He does things that make perfect sense in his context, but that unfortunately don't work too well.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
He's not Drusilla insane.
Except near the end of S2, but that wasn't really his fault. And he gets better! Mostly.
Most of the time, he reacts as sensibly as can be expected, considering the circumstances he's presented with. It's just that the circumstances are, well, insane.

Well, yes, but when there actually IS a second person in your head, it doesn't count as hearing voices. Right?

Yeah, I think it was the Scorpius deal that really lost me. But I'll give it a go; DVDs are cheap! And CuteBoy at the office is a big fan, so that'll give us something to talk about besides Serenity.
