	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-27)  So obviously a setup episode, but still has its interesting bits.  The "shared pain bracelets" or whatever even gave Braca something a bit more interesting than usual to do.  And though we know it's ultimately for a ruse alliance, Scorpius and Rygel sort of... combatively allying against their captors was neat to watch.

			Talyn, on the other hand, has gone batshit.  Destroying a medical ship and attacking Moya.

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-28)  Good stuff.  Good good stuff.  John faking help as a way to destroy their work, but becomes more confused about what's right after viewing the Scorpius backstory episode.  However, things fall to shit of course, especially with the meddling of Scorpius's Peacekeeper opposition.  Then we see the nasty side of Scorpius come out.

			I've got to think this whole quest against every major power getting wormhole technology is a bit quixotic, though.  A reasonable wish, maybe, but technology progresses.  It's like if a handful of people working in the 1930s-50s tried to prevent the world from unlocking atomic power--they could only hold things back for so long.

			I think my biggest problem with this episode was that with so many people trying to fool so many other people, it became impossible to tell what half of the people were REALLY up to.  Crais and his old flame were the biggest examples.

			So they tried to find a method of destroying the ship that would allow people to escape.  But I wonder how many of those ~50,000 didn't make it?  Things were a WEE bit hectic.  For that matter, how does Scorpius get off?  We see him walk off, but I'm not buying that as the end.

			Speaking of Scorpius, I'm more and more loving Harvey.  All the time he becomes more apart from Scorpius.  He seems to realize he's the minor power in John's head, no longer has the same passion about giving wormhole technology to the Peacekeepers, and is fully into just making sure Crichton stays alive since it means he stays alive.  Also by being in John's head he gets to pull out all the crazy Earth knowledge usually only John knows.

	322: '''Dog With Two Bones''' ''[[2002]] [[April 26]]''		322: '''Dog With Two Bones''' ''[[2002]] [[April 26]]''

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-28)  I wasn't buying Crais and Talyn as really dead last episode.  I figured we'd find they successfully starburst to someplace else after all.  However, in this episode they actually have the wreckage of Talyn... so that seems that.  There's always the chance Crais somehow got out or that some weird doubling happened as we've seen with half the other characters, but for now they are looking DEAD.  Wow.

			Also Wow, that ship of D'Argo's can basically disintegrate a Leviathan with one shot?

			What's the deal with that crazy old lady?  Someone they helped rescue from the command carrier, who cooks for them, causes hallucinations, and in the end possibly has a part in apparently sucking Moya into a wormhole?

			And what a cliffhanger.  Aeryn gone and pregnant, presumably with John 1's child--this especially brings new light to her antipathy about John 2.  Moya, as just said, sucked into a wormhole.  John 2 stuck in Farscape One on his own with little fuel.

			I know they wanted it for the episode title, but I don't think the story John brings up about the dog with two bones is very analogous.  The dog is stupid, and in attempting to double what he's already got by biting for a reflection, loses the thing he has.  John's situation is different.  He's like a dog that sees two definitely distinct bones, doesn't think he can fit both into his mouth, and doesn't know what to do about it.

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-25)  When I considered how they would follow up a big thing like the death of John 1... I was totally not expecting John 2 to be dreaming up a Looney Tunes parody.  When it was just Scorpius showing up in animated form it was great.  But then nearly half the episode was a Crichton/D'Argo take on Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote.  Friggin' awesome.

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-25)  Haha.  A parallel group of escaped prisoners.  The tough guy, the Nebari, the Hynerian, all of whom buddy up with their Moya/Talyn counterparts.  Rygel's counterpart ends up betraying them to the Peacekeepers, but it's not like it's something he hasn't done and repeatedly threatened on other occasions.  Of course in this case she's not a regular so they can kill her off.

			John 1 shows up again in message form.  Given the circumstances he and John 2 "get along" much more this time than before.  Interesting that they still hit a draw on rock paper scissors.  I was wondering if due to their diverging paths they would now no longer pick the same thing, but I guess it works better this way than to have had one of them ''win'' over the other.

			So after being hinted at a few times before, it seems pretty confirmed that Chiana is getting glimpses of the future.  What's up with that?

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-20)  What a weird episode.  Especially the weird editing.  And in the end we are left wondering how much of it was actually real, or was it just Crichton BSing?

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-24)  Awwww, John.  John John John.  I didn't think they'd kill him off; then I realized "Of course they will; he's got the wormhole knowledge and it's a two-parter."  In honor of his sacrifice, I dub him John 1.

			So I've really enjoyed this split crew thing, but clearly with them killing off one of the Johns it must be coming to an end soon.  And though I thought the Aeryn/John 1 relationship would be awkward when reunited with John 2, it may be even weirder now.  Aeryn and John 2 still share most of the same relationship, but not the most passionate month-or-two, and now there's the additional complication of John 2 reminding her of a dead lover--his equal and original alternate.

			The Ancient done in CG was quite more believable than the old prop, even if it was only shown very briefly.

			Kind of weird: The recreation of John's module is so complete that it includes the lettering and logos?  Rather than her sticking "Furlow One" or whatever on there?

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-16)  Green Eyed Monster... that's almost TOO good an episode title.

			"That's no moon."  Nice.

			The double Crichton thing does add an element of danger to the show.  Since there's a "spare" around, when one of these Crichtons gets in a deadly situation I actually believe for a change that he might not get out of it.

			So Aeryn is sleeping with one of the Crichtons.  That's sure to make things awkward when everyone reunites.

			So much for Aeryn's mom.

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-13)  What a creepy situation.  Repeatedly eating a Pilot's regrowing arms.  I totally didn't believe it when D'Argo appeared to die.  After the way Zhaan's exist was built up, no way was he going to go out unexpectedly in the first half of an episode.  The doubling thing... ethically troublesome.  Chiana just left "herself" to die.  It is pretty typical of episodic sci-fi that only one of Chiana and D'Argo survived so the status quo remains--the surprise is that we've ended up with two Johns.

			Also, what's the deal with Jool?  She's not playing very important roles in the episodes, so it's not like it's an arc concentrated on her.  She's not in the main credits, so she's not intended as a full replacement for Zhaan--at least not yet.  It's like she's a junior cast member?

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-13)  The surprise at the end of the last episode was that there were two Johns.  The surprise at the end of this episode is that there are STILL two Johns.  I thought they'd dispense of one pretty quickly, but this odd situation will last at least a few episodes.  I like that they've established there's no noticeable difference between the two of them--it helps it remain unobvious which one will be the regular remaining John in the end.

			Also of note, they make clear Jool can do medical stuff--so perhaps more a replacement for Zhaan than I previously realized.

			I can't say I'm too sorry to see Zhaan go.  If I was stuck on Moya she seems like she'd be the easiest to get along with--and really that's the problem.  The show gets so much from the other characters being in conflict with each other, but whenever she got into that it seemed a stretch.  Like the whole ripping off of Pilot's arm.  Then there was that so often they just left her on the ship while the other people went off adventuring anyway; she really wasn't being used for much.

	(First watched )		(First watched 2010-08-12)  So the first Zhaan-less title sequence.

			Heeey, finally some time travel that wasn't just a reset button.  After screwing things up horribly they set things back to as they were... mostly.

			Interesting that Peacekeeper accounts of the event were so screwed up when there is literally a way to watch the past.  I suppose they just had their legend going on and never bothered to come around and visit to verify.
