Farscape 1999-2003
The other day, I was channel-surfing and I stumbled upon an episode of Farscape, an Australian sci-fi series that my hubby and I fell in love with, we were so sad when it ended. You can find it on Netflicks but finding it accidentally late night made my night. The thing that I miss most about Farscape is the relationship between John Crichton and Aeryn Sun, their chemistry was off the charts, you felt their love for one another through the t.v screen. John would do anything for his love Aeryn and she for him. together they fought against the forces of evil especially the evil forces who were committed to getting into John’s head to discover how he navigated the wormhole that dropped him into this part of the universe. The evil forces weren’t content with their parts of the universe, they wanted to conquer all possible parts of the universe.

The actor Ben Browder did such an excellent job playing John Crichton; his character demonstrated bravery, compassion, loyalty, nobility and self-sacrifice. I am not forgetting the actress Claudia Black, she gave such life to her character Aeryn Sun, the way she acted as Aeryn, her courage in the face of any danger, her commitment to keeping John safe from all harm, her quest to redeem her past transgressions. They made such a grand pair, I didn’t want them to go, the only saving grace that the writers gave us fans was the baby that they created with their love, and what an adorable baby they had. That was the series grand finale.
I wanted to share a great series to anyone who has Netflicks and wants to see a great love story and great friendships. Because in my focus on the love story, I neglected to mention the awesome friendships that you see between John, Aeryn and the rest of the crew members of the spaceship Moira.

I too loved Farscape. I appreciate your story of channel surfing and finding it, as this is how I discovered the show during its second season. There are few shows that were as daring and creative as Farscape was. It was one of the first sci fi shows to really develop their characters fully; what the characters went through had lasting consequences. This is another reason why i think the John/Aeryn relationship was so intense. It was truly epic. I can’t believe it’s been ten years since it aired.
I know, sniff, sniff. Thanks for commenting. That’s what I love about sci-fi fans we are loyal and vocal. 🙂
I’ve been watching Stargate SG-1. It’s campy, but I love it! Have you ever watched that?
My hubby and I went to see the movie with James Spader and Kurt Russell and as soon as there was the t.v series with Richard Dean Anderson, we were on board. Interestingly enough, once Farscape was over, both Claudia Black and Ben Browder both joined Stargate. We have watched the other spinoffs of Stargate and on SyFy channel we also watch Sanctuary with the actress who played Richard Dean Anderson’s second in command with the blond hair, in Sanctuary she has dark hair. My hubby and I love SyFy.:)
… and what about Firefly ?
so short but so good !
Je suis d’accord, Firefly me manque aussi. Mais on a de la chance qu’on a droit a voir le beaux Nathan Fillion dans Castle. Il y’a un rumour que c’est possible qu’il vont faire un filme. Je garde les doigts croisser que ca se fait. 🙂
trop d’années ont passées, je n’y crois plus trop
et puis certains acteurs ont vraiment vieilli, pense à Jayne, l’magines-tu encore avec son bonnet ?
Oui, tu as raison, Jayne ne pourait lus mettre son bonnet, ca ne ferait pas le meme effait. 😦 Firefly etait un super serie
