I'm having a bit of a... well. Fixation, really. Farscape is maybe a little bit eating my life right now, in THE BEST WAY.

I'm re-realizing how FREAKING BRILLIANT the show is, and how HOT John and Aeryn are, and how utterly in love I am with the whole thing.

So uh. Being me, I made screencaps.

Yay?



So, ladida, John goes to space, trips and falls into a wormhole, and lands in the magical land of Oz.

Where he sees that, hey! Aliens don't look anything like humans!







This is a wee bit disconcerting to poor John, but makes me unspeakably happy, because love Star Trek though I do, adding forehead ridges or a nose bump does not a convincing alien make.

See?




Disconcerted!John.

And, I mean, he TRIES to make nice. But the timing's all wrong, and, well.




It doesn't go over... at all.

But everyone gets distracted by the multiple Peacekeeper vessels trying to kill them, and John gets tossed aside.




It's hard being John.

And then D'Argo tongues him. Er. Is that what it's called? Does fandom have some awesome name for that one? Because I have to stop myself from typing 'tongue fucks' and that just leads to all sorts of other places.

ANYWAY.

John gets knocked out.




And stripped, because clearly the aliens have great taste in men WANT TO PROBE YOU aren't willing to take any chances.




I'll bet later in the series? John spends a lot of time thinking "Damn, I wish ALL aliens stripped me naked when I was knocked out, instead of TORTURING ME FOR DAYS ON END AND TRYING TO KILL ME ALL. THE FRELLING. TIME."

Or, you know. Not.

Oh but then!

John realizes he's in the same cell as- GASP!




A prostitute robot from the future!

Possibly that wasn't his first thought.




But yeah, he's kinda worried there.

Until the robot takes off it's helmet.




And he looks...




Interested.

Which I love. I mean, I assume the expression is supposed to be more relieved than anything, but it always struck me as "Oh, god, what is that thing, oh my god, is it going to- ... HELLO."

The other thing I love about this show?

Is that he ends up between her legs REAL FAST.




I wish so much I could make an 'in her pants' joke here, but no.




OHAITHAR, AERYN. OHAI.

Also, Claudia Black is hot like burning. Expect for this to be a recurring theme.




Like. Burning.

And just for funsies, let's see that again:




Oh yeah.

Moving right along.




Moya!

Moya for the win.

And:




Rygel.

Whose bodily functions were, I think, the actual moment I knew I would love this show. mayatawi showed it to me a few years ago, and I think I hurt myself laughing.

John is less than impressed.




Aeryn is hot.




And also not wildly impressed.

Until a wee bit later, when John shows her his fork.




Granted, she's probably still not in great awe, but, that's probably because she had her fork taken away.

Anyway, more stuff happens, Crais is emo and awkward, and then we get:




John. Standing on another planet for the first time.

Woobie.

He's just... he's on another planet. It's HUGE for him, and yeah, there are aliens, and people trying to kill each other, and a whole load of things he doesn't understand, but he's on another planet.

*LOVE*

Aaaaaaaand then he gets manhandled.




He'll get used to this.

Claudia Black continues to be hot.







One of my favorite things is that in the pilot- the episode where most shows just establish a few main points about the characters and plots- we get this moment:




Where John tells Aeryn, after knowing her for all of a heartbeat and a half, that she can be more. Not only does he stand up for her, but he flat out states that he believes in her, and SHE GOES.

They are EPIC, ok? And maybe it's just me who is kind of stupidly in love with the 'you can be more' bit, but GOD. John and Aeryn. I JUST.

Claudia Black is, um, still hot.




Also, when Maya was first showing me this, I was DEEPLY amused every time Crais came on screen...




Because, even though I love some of his story arcs, he can be REALLY emo. And, um. The name Lani Tupu is just NEVER not funny. I... I can't help it. Every time it came on screen during the credits, I snorted.

I may have a problem.

But, oh!

This!




She CLEARLY thinks John is crazy, but she trusts him!

The recurring themes in this show- they start early.

And hey, it works!




Moya lives to fight another four seasons day!

Zhaan is pleased:




Aeryn is... oddly surprised.




D'Argo is pleased also, but expresses it in his own, BigStrongWarriorMan way.




With a knife.

Clearly.

Although, of the things John and D'Argo have done up against a wall, I think this is one of the less awkward ones.

Just sayin'.

Speaking of Claudia Black being hot...




And herein we have one of the prettiest fucking shows to ever rock my world.




*hearts*

I... may possibly cap more episodes. Since I pretty much seem to be rewatching them.
