Mir schon klar, dass Protag John Crichton von #Farscape ein ausgebildeter Astronaut ist, gebildet und gewitzt, aber so flappsig-lässig bzw. gestresst-agro wie Ben Browder ihn spielt*, erschreck ich je-des-mal wenn er mit naturwissenschaftichem Techno-Babbel daherkommt.

* keine Beanstandung meinerseits, außer, dass Bens Gesichtsmerkmale sich a bissi auf seinem Kopf verteilen könnten, statt sich alle eng in der Mitte zu tummeln.
Ich schweife ab.

I had started the process of re-ripping and transcoding some of my favorite shows a month or two ago, but the PC I had at the time had an FX 8370 and it was just not up to doing #AV1. It was hours per episode to encode. However, now I have this little guy, so I decided to give it a shot. Should be able to knock the whole show out in a few hours. #Farscape was the first Bluray set I purchased when Netflix removed it and motivated me to start own media server.

The channel I’m watching is telling me it’s the 25 Anniversary for Farscape. I’m pretty sure that was last year, because maths, but what do I really know?

Remember Farscape? I do. I was around and a viewer when it premiered on the fairly new SciFi Channel in March of ‘99.

The show is still a joy to watch.

I think of Scorpius as one of the great antagonists in television science fiction.

I've always wanted to see Farscape. I'd always thought it would be exactly my kind of programme. That is, an intelligent science fiction adventure and drama. I've only recently had the opportunity to watch a few episodes.

I enjoyed the first few episodes. However, I'm finding the stories becoming increasingly far-fetched. Seems more fantasy than Sci-Fi.

Does Farscape continue in this vein? Should I persevere with Farscape?

Not sure how I missed the Saturn Award nominations, or that voting started last Wednesday, December 4th and runs through December 17th.

I’m not clear on the release period for these awards - I see nominations for Godzilla Minus One and Loki as well as very recent releases like My Old Ass. As ever, the categories have a few oddities — For All Mankind is nominated as a Fantasy television show. There are odd gaps - vfx is a film category but not for television. The increasingly meaningless distinction between linear and streaming productions has been eliminated.

Whatever — It’s great though that this very long running mechanism for acknowledgment and recognition of genre film and television is up and running again.

And I’m personally happy to see nods to a Star Trek Discovery and Lower Decks, Superman and Lois, The Ark, Farscape and others among my fandom favourites.
