That's my understanding, yeah. *looks around for Suela*
Boxed Set, Vol. 1: Smallville, Due South, Farscape
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much anything else that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
They skipped "A Bug's Life" -- went straight from "Through the Looking Glass" to "Nerve".
The commercial that the fans are going to be airing before the mini is available for preview at
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!)
Well, yes, with the illogic and the leather pants. Point being, ABL sets up both Crichton's motivation for sneaking into the base, and the means for him to do so (Chiana had stolen Dead Psycho Guy's ident chip). Nerve without ABL makes about as much sense as Hidden Memory without Nerve. Which is, not much.

Eh, I wouldn't go that far. All you really need to know from ABL for Nerve is (a) Aeryn got stabbed; (b) Chiana stole the ident key; (c) there's a PK base nearby.
Everything else is gravy. Whereas The Hidden Memory is very much part 2 of Nerve.
And I haven't checked SciFi's schedulebot, but I heard they were running the entire 88 episodes, 8 eps a day, for 11 days. So I doubt they skipped any.
Thanks for the link, Mickie! t right-clicks
