    >Les Aspin has to address very specific pressures to carry out his job. But I can frame very general questions and get away with doing mine. How do I justify my position? Well, I can tell myself that I'm too busy to do better, because the news rushes onward. But that's not really satisfactory. Better to say the American people don't want details, they just want "the basics." In other words I can blame my own shoddy behavior on the audience. And if I hear the audience criticizing me, I can say I'm being blamed as the bearer of bad news. Instead of facing what is really going on - which is that my customers are telling me that my product is poorly researched, and often either uninteresting or irrelevant. It's junk-food journalism. Empty calories.

      Michael Crichton was always oddly ahead of the curve on conceptualizing some of our current issues before they were ever actually realized. Genetics being a commodity, the climate change hysteria, the unknown risks that come with fricking with AI.

      In 50 years we'll discover shrinking tech and Micro will suddenly be a possibility instead of a zany Jurassic Park/Honey I Shrunk the Kids mashup.

        to be honest this sounds more like an automated RSS crawler or something to me.

        But he was still kind of behind the curve, he thought it was an "accident" or an unfortunate market and management reaction that the media "sells the sizzle, not the steak". Perhaps 93 wasn't as bad yet, and the media landscape was going up because of how new the internet was, but he couldn't dream up the fact that modern media has turned into a special interest and government controlled propaganda apparatus.

    Probably only "unpopular" because so few have seen Farscape (compared to other scifi shows). If it had been more mainstream then people wouldve been talking about Crighton in the same glowing way they talked about Capt Reynolds from Firefly.

        They never knew what to do with the character, beyond having "the audience" have a mouthpiece. Her being a Scarran spy was only disappointing because it ruined everything they setup with Scorpius.

          No. They wasn't a "dopple-ganger"

          John Crichton was TWINNED, (a concept I remember being introduced on the show when I watched it over 15 years ago, before I could drive), which means they are both equally entitled to being called the original.

          I even remember one scene where a woman is saying she looked over the DNA test results and saying "you're both perfect."

                Star Trek did this LOTS.

                It doesn't really matter if your main character dies, if he is replaced by a healthy identical copy with all the same memories, then he has functionally been resurrected, and the conflict is resolved so perfectly that the episode might as well never have happened.

                They wanted the show to not have a reset button at the end of every episode like Star Trek. So he had to stay dead. Besides, you pretty much forget that he's dead since there's still two of him running around. It's only that one line where it's ever mentioned.

        Crighton definitely fricked her before he was twinned so it could have always been from that time as well. Peacekeeper chicks could have a fertilized egg from years before. So all in all the kid could have been John's, John Twin Alpha, or John Twin Prime.

        In my headcanon, Stark's mask "downloaded" all of John Twin Alpha's memories, into John Twin Prime's brain. They still arent "his" but the information is there

        god I miss the unreal combination of this level of attention to detail with continuity + plenty of one-off episodes. Most shows now are the opposite: annoying plot that drags on and on, shitty attention to continuity.
        This show has a slice of life element, and a certain kind of intimacy with the characters, that just isn't there in any other show.
        idk if I wanna rewatch it tho because it also makes me feel lonely.

        He's definitely the best villian in SciFi, and one of the rare instances where a character who's meant to be a genius actually acts like a genius rather than just talks like a pseude but still acts like an idiot

          It goes to show just how effective taking minor details into account is when making a smart character. He doesn’t have to rattle off bulshit technobabble or read the script, he just has to take logical steps that a smart and thorough person would. I.E when he has someone with information he desperately wants, and that someone is clearly resourceful and determined, he bothers to make contingency plans. The details of the plan may be sci-fi, but the sentiment behind it is completely logical.
          It makes moments like him instantly spotting the plant monster’s nature feel earned, and the fact those moments are relegated to parts of the script that are ultimately inconsequential lets you know he’s not going to bullshit his way through a plot out of nowhere.

      It's a pretty cool way of showing that you wouldn't just be this unchanged rock in the face of the absurdity he's constantly faced with. it would cause big changes in your personality, and definitely some idiosyncratic behavior.

      You gotta respect the fact they actually played it out where as every other scifi show that has a clone plot episode kills the clone off at the end of the ep and then forgets about it.
      It was also a good excuse to have the group split up between Moya and Talon for a while and still keep a Crichton in each plotline.

            >Why was stark always pretty much terrible? His first few episodes were good
            He was only good for a couple episodes at a time. He would quickly overstay his welcome. It would be better if the came and went a bunch of times, only staying for a couple episodes at a time. His visuals are also not sci-fi enough.

        Jool is intentionally annoying to begin with but I liked her by the end. Probably not best girl material but doesnt deserve hate.
        Chiana cucks Dargo with his son so, despite being sexy as frick thats a pretty heavy price to pay.

          I agree but I dont think chiana deserves that much hate. Dargo is like a 35-45 yr old fricking an 18 year old damaged girl and then trying to marry her out of the blue. Obviously it wasnt going to go well.

      Rogelio for all his bluster is a total bro. He is far more competent than he let's on & far more moral when it comes to the people he cares about than he pretends. After Jothee, Rogelio no longer does shenanigans with Chiana. After season 1, Rogelio is ride or die with the group too

        Besides chopping off a paw, most of the crew loved him. For me, the scene where everyone hugs him is the most touching in the series.

    Here's an actual hot take:
    This show would have actually been watchable if it didn't have all of the gay Jim Henson shit. Literally rather watch Cleopatra 2929 or whateverthefrick it was called than this. Or Babylon 5. It's got the same filtration system as anime: only the gaygiest dweebs can endure it.

      I somewhat remember that.

      Wasn't it aimed at a female audience though? I remember a lot of pretty boys.

      Brand new channel needed some flagship TV series and gave them carte blanche to do whatever. Nowadays every single episode of every TV-series is overseen by a commitee.

    I really wanted a season were Rogelio gets his throne but more than that I wanted the Nebari to invade and release whatever plague STD or what have you that they programmed Chiana with.

    If their normal ships can frick up the Zelbinian what would their war machines do? It would probably take a collision between Scarrans, Peacekeepers, Hynerians, Luxans, and the Consortium of Trow to stop them
