Heh, Farscape started out competing in my queue but quickly pushed the others out of the way. I confess, though, that I really adored the pilot and its promise, so the hooking happened early. That, along with all the encouragement pimping I got here once I started, convinced me that the permanent emotional hook lay ahead. Um, yeah. That was true. Your friend is wise, Nonian.
And it's more than just a one note hook, I should add. So. Much. More.
Is scifi playing the Farscape episodes in order?
That's my understanding, yeah. *looks around for Suela*
They skipped "A Bug's Life" -- went straight from "Through the Looking Glass" to "Nerve".

Wow, that makes no sense at all. I mean, you can skip TTLG, but A Bug's Life and Nerve are in a lot of ways a two-parter -- the one follows directly on the other timewise and logicwise. Swift move, SciFi!
A Bug's Life is the first one where we have Crichton pretending to be a Peacekeeper, right?
I think that they showed it yesterday.

I think so. In the leather coat and acting all arrogant and getting into a testosterone fest with Visiting Peacekeeper Hottie. If this is the episode I think it is, I have fond memories of it.
I think "Bug's Life" is the one where Moya gets boarded by a bunch of asshat (but hot!) Peacekeepers with some cargo that turns out to be a paranoia parasite or some such. Aeryn gets seriously wounded at the end of that, I think, and then in "Nerve" Crichton gets to don Peacekeeper leather fetish gear and for some cracked reason starts speaking in a bad British accent, which makes no goddamned sense because hello? Translator microbes? But Crichton looks smokin' hot in leather for which I can forgive a lot.
Well, they definitely showed an episode (which I only watched part of -- I may have fallen asleep -- head cold, you know) yesterday where Crichton put on a faux-Brit accent.
Today they have Nerve and now they're having the follow-up to Nerve immediately afterwards. (Thank goodness!)
