Vonnie, I hope they don't bring him back, but I do hope that the Scarrans act like they have him alive, or at least use his body as some sort of angst-inducing bargaining chip.

Bwah, Vonnie, yes.

I missed a lot: there was a lot going on.

My major complaint is, like other people's, the Sikozu issue. But... ::handwave:: I'm pretty happy overall, since my predictions and expectations were constrained by the knowledge that JHC wants a franchise out of this. Emotionally and narrratively powerful as it might have been for John to die, it was never going to happen. Browder and Black are the franchise, to many people.

One of the things I loved best about this was that Crichton and Aeryn were right again. Somehow the writers managed to remember what those two are like when they spark off each other: that total trust, colored with sarcasm and sexual chemistry. It felt like Season 2 again, but without John going insane. Loved it so much.

How much did I love Aeryn carrying the baby in a sling while shooting a bigass gun with the other hand? THIIIIIISSSS MUUUUCCCCHHHHH.

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.

It does occur to me that they could re-cast Anthony Simcoe most easily of the main cast--give him different prosthetics, or none, and his normal speaking voice is very different from his D'Argo voice.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

'Suela, me too. Aeryn's characterization was just so right. And I am impressed with Peacekeeper physiology -- Aeryn gave birth, wrapped up the baby, tossed it in a sling, and immediately joined the power walk/shoot-em-up.

True, Micole, but I do hope they don't.

As it is, they recast Jothee, and it was really obvious, even behind the prosthetics. And yes, I know what IMDB says. It's wrong, according to Froon and Dani Moure, the guy who runs Farscapeworld.

IMDB is not infrequently wrong, actually, which is not surprising given where much of its information comes from.

Who, Me?

I think that she ment have Anthony play another character, not have another actor playing D'Argo..

As it is, they

I'm FFwding to the end of my tape 2 in the hopes that they caught the credits, but after you made that comment in you LJ after Pt 1, I was looking closely at Jothee and think you guys are wrong. I think that really is Matthew Newton under there. Unfortunately, checking the tapoe for Pt 1, I didn't record the end credits.

Yeah, what Mickie said. (Spoiler rules here?) If they want to resurrect D'Argo, I'm assuming they can get Simcoe back. But I don't want them to resurrect D'Argo.

Didn't record the end credits for Pt 2, either.
