Interesting choice or could it have been the only set on Talyn with a bed in it that that was big enough to have all the crew in one room?Lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09661434417795768656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-12551462758954088892019-10-06T03:31:51.300-04:002019-10-06T03:31:51.300-04:00An amazing epsiode with a devastating ending which...An amazing epsiode with a devastating ending which sets up the story arc for the rest of the show and wont be fully resolved until the Peacekeeper Wars.<br /><br />Cladia Black's nuanced reactions are perfect in every scene from the relief and joy that Harvey is gone to pure heartbreak and grief when John tells her about the radiation exposure and when he dies in her arms.<br /><br />I did wonder if it was safe for her to be kissing him? Then again i dont know enough science to know if it was, and so touching anyway. <br /><br />Another technical question i have is why they think the data only made it to the dreadnought, surely that ship would have backed up to others. Then again cloud back-up wasnt such a big thing in 2002.<br /><br />Only on this second viewing did i notice John pull Stark's hand back onto his head and give a little nod, this must be when he sends the message for Green Shirt John, always and thinking of Aeryn even in his final moments.<br /><br />Aeryn had let down all her defences and fully opened her heart to a future with Black Shirt John and he had finally banished Harvey and could see a real way home then he is ripped away in the cruellest way. <br /><br />Even though Green Shirt John lives, and Aeryn may find a way to be with him, she has irrevocably been changed and we never get to see the pure joy without the tinge of pain again.<br /><br />This cemented Aeryn and John as one of my all time favourite tv couples. <br /><br />There has always been a concern that will they or wont they relationships once consumated kill a show, but Farscape, Castle and Bones all prove it can be done.<br /><br /><br /><br />Lyndahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09661434417795768656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-52149220359906413672018-11-30T07:49:02.452-05:002018-11-30T07:49:02.452-05:00A great review. In fact I only found out about you...A great review. In fact I only found out about you via a friend who is a Farscape fan and has been reading a lot of your Farscape reviews and really appreciates them too!<br /><br />This episode is one of the saddest I have witnessed, and of course the ending had me in tears. Claudia Black played the grieving Aeryn so well for that scene that she looked genuinely upset such was her facial expression. <br /><br />Compare and contrast that to the early episodes of season 1 when she was a rough, tough and almost soulless Peacekeeper renegade who looked straight through John!<br /><br />I will look forward to reading more of your Farscape reviews from now on :)Diane Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-21037464819793038782017-08-08T18:24:22.016-04:002017-08-08T18:24:22.016-04:00John Dies - WTF?John Dies - WTF?bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03651590292278292173noreply@blogger.com
