      Farscape

      Peackeeper Wars.( Because this was so massive in those 3 hours I ‘m liable to forget some things. Felt like the cliffhangers from Bad Timing with Chiana’s eyes and John and Aeryn returning from their crystallized from was resolved too easily. But Rygel having to carry John and Aeryn’s was frellin hilarious. Biologically impossible but hilarious none the less. And that includes his hormone inbalance after the fetus went back to Aeryn. I also question the point of kicking Scorpious and Sikozu off Moya if they are just going to rejoin. They could have used someone else to start the war with the Scarrans. Nooranti seemed pretty useless in the miniseries. I wonder if their was behind the scenes reason the actor wasn’t there. But enough with my negatives (except maybe the radical change in Sikozu’s appearance) and lets get on with the positives. At first I was negative about Grayza being pregnant. It seemed utterly pointless but I think it works towards the end when John launches that weapon. And overall I liked it as it mixtures of a lot of things. Their was ton of action like returning to Amernsick and the subsequent bombing of it by the Scarrans was quite cool looking. Although I have to say the death of Jool produced no emotional reaction in me what so ever. It was even a little comical. Speaking of comical I laughed at Einstein beating the smack out of Emperor Staleak. Its about time someone put a Scarran in his place. Although its interesting how an Eldloin was able to even have him see peace. Speaking of peace a compliant I thought the characters were a little preachy about wanting peace to the point of out of character for some of them. It also speaks to me how Einstein gravely sees that wormhole weapons may be the only way to solve everything Lo’lal was always a cool ship but I guess if it has to go I don’t have any problems with how it was destroyed. To me it makes sense that Scarrans could detect cloaked ships. Although I wonder why no one detected Jothee’s ship collecting D’Argo and Chiana. This leads to the big fight on the water planet (whose real name escapes me). It was long and drawn out so I’m not going to discuss in detail although it does seem pointless. Why go down there in the first place when almost everyone is dead? Although I will admit it had some nice action in the fight and some comedic moments like when Aeryn was giving birth with the assistance of Chiana and Stark. Their were also some nice character moments like Sikozu being a traitor. I kind of wish more had been elaborated. Like the time frame and her motivation. I don’t buy it was to save her people. She can’t be that naïve. The death of D’Argo has to rival Zhaan’s death which to me was the saddest thing ever in Farscape. The mood of the deaths were different but both of them were quite sad. I admit to crying as he says goodbye to everyone. The high point is the part where he says goodbye to John. It was one of the saddest things I have ever scene. I have said in these 4 seasons that John has done some crazy and insane things. But launching a weapon of mass destruction like that to be the record. Its not a shocker why the Peacekeepers and Scarrans called a truce but still it was pretty crazy which makes for good television. Although I wonder why the Peackeepers didn’t arrest them. They are still technically criminals. I also wonder why Einstein put John in a coma and took away his wormhole knowledge. It seemed like they were in agreement that it was a necessary evil. This is what happens when a show is cancelled prematurely. Too many unanswered questions. I will end with saying I liked the nod that the offspring is called D’Argo.

      Thats it I'm done, for obvious reasons

        The deploying of the wormhole weapon was....wow. One of the truly chilling/awe-inspiring moments in sci-fi.

            They had to resolve the cliffhanger stuff rather quickly due to time constraints.

            Grayza's pregnancy came about because the actress was pregnant. So, they just wrote it in since it would have been rather hard to hide it. As for Noranti's absence for most of the movie, the actress was unable to be in the make-up for long due to health reasons.

                That much is obvious but I still feel a need to address the flaws of the miniseries.
