You know, I still maintain that this is the only case I've seen where the realization of the ship actually improved the quality of the show. Most of the time, series lose their spark when the protagonists get together but Farscape only got better. This is my all-time favorite tv romance...because it was just so beautifully written.
TPTB made a brave choice to make the J/A relationship the focus in the last two seasons (and even some of 2), and I think it paid off. The most interesting thing about their relationship though is that it's such a subtle progression...there is no BIG moment and then suddenly they're a couple (at least not when they first get together). I mean, maybe I missed it but is there a definitive moment where they become an "official" couple. It just seems like they organically move to that point and are pretty much there by the end of season 2. Plus, even when they weren't together you could see how in tune they were with each other.
