LOL, I didn't much like the final season of SG-1 but that scene had me in hysterics when I first saw it.
It shows in one 30 second spot how much more awsome and original Farscape was then SG1. Of course its hysterical.
A bunch of weird random characters in a weird environment saying made-up cursewords shows that? Really? Honestly, if I had never seen an episode of Farscape, I'd just be thinking WTF?
Scorpious in a Hawaiian shirt hallucination: Go on. Kill her. Then we'll have pizza and margarita shooters. Do it. Do it.
Crichton: [aims gun at Aloha Scorpious] Nobody has margarita with pizza.
man that really WAS a great ep.
I think it's tied with the episode where everyone changes bodies. Hilarity ensues.
I dunno, some of the shit in "Won't get Fooled Again" puts it slightly above.
I mean, seriously, Crais pulling up in a patrol car in a police uniform and red highheals, saying probably the best thing ever.
"Freeze! You're under arrest! You have the right to the remains of a silent attorney! If you cannot afford one... tough noogies! You can make ONE phone call! I recommend Trixie: 976-Triple 5-"love". Do you understand these rights as I have explained them to you?! Well do you, punk?!"
"...No!"
"Then I can't arrest you!"

I am so happy a thread like this has been spawned! I have been a Farscape fan for years and to this day I watch episodes at least once a week.
Thanks to the sale heads-up, Season 4 finally ordered! I had given up when they were like $100 a season, but now I've got them all.
Such a great show. Always liked it because you could take away all the sci-fi/fantasy elements, and the main characters would still work - it was their relationships that made it. Like I loved TNG, I just can't see it holding up without an inverse tachyon stream.
For some reason I have never seen this discussed. To me the Scarrans are one of the best villian Alien species created in television Sci Fi. For enemies they are extremely strong, resilient, , heat generating abilities, and with the Crystherium utilia can be incredibly intelligent/manipulative.
Also unlike other cool alien species they just extrude power. Remember when War Minister Aknah backhanded John about 10 feet across a table?
I just bought the entire series deal from amazon. I really got into Farscape in its last two seasons, unfortunately I had barely heard of it before then so I missed the majority of the series. Come teusday I will start making up for lost time.

If you can't beat them, arrange to have them beaten in your presence.
Just started watching from the beginning, it actually is as good as I remember. Only just watched the second episode but even it I enjoyed a lot. It is a bit cheap, you can tell for some things they had tiny production values, but then you have the amazing puppets, and little extra bits of set, and I just love it.
I just have to go on about how much I love Pilot too. The design is just fantastic, this huge armoured alien with multiple limbs that interfaces symbiotically with a living ship? Yes, YES, please. Just his head and little arms, so cool. Really.
Wheee! Got my complete series DVD box set thingy yesterday.
Boo! Stupid computer DVD drive doesn't like region codes.
Wheee! Flashing DVD drive. In the process I discovered that my DVD drive can also burn DL discs, but it was just firmware locked away. Wtf?
Wheee! Watching Farscapey goodness!
So yeah, I still need to get Peacekeeper wars though.

Amazon says mine was supposed to be here yesterday.
Over Christmas, I went to a store called Moviestop to get a dvd for my uncle and I found they had all the seasons of Farscape and The Peacekeeper Wars and no way could I resist that.

Edit: Also, Claudia Black. Claudia Black.
And the complete series is $64 on Amazon right now?

John in Aeryn's body, entertaining himself by giggling her (his?) boobs. Priceless.

That episode made me fall out of my chair. Literally.
"This is for calling me Sparky!"
"Electromagnetic Candy"

"Vomit... come in please... vomit."
I love Stark.
Amazing. That would be this?
This is an idea.
I want an 1812 roomba.

Also, R.I.P. DRD Pike.
Nah you pretty much have her down pat there.
Ugh, I just finished the third episode in season three, and I'm hoping they kill her off soon.
As the DVD set was a gift, I really hope it was purchased locally and where returns are possible.

Hurrah! The office was hiding it.
There will be much rejoicing.
