Season 1 Overview – A Look Back

It’s been an interesting ride in the Uncharted Territories thus far, and Season One has ended on a fairly hard-hitting cliffhanger. We’ll be starting Season Two next week, but for now, let’s take a look back at our thoughts on the season as a whole.

Episode [1.22] – “Family Ties”

Today, on Farscape… “One other thing, Dad. You remember the day I left? You told me that every man has a chance to be his own kind of hero. Well, I don’t think I’m ever coming home, so I won’t get that ticker tape parade. Doubt that I’m ever gonna have kids, so I won’t […]

Episode [1.17] – “Through the Looking Glass”

Today, on Farscape… “I always wondered what could be beyond height, width, depth, time…” “Nausea.” When the crew starts entertaining thoughts of abandoning Moya, she makes an ill-advised Starburst to prove that she is still capable of serving their needs. Complications abound when Moya is fragmented into four distinct parts, and the crew is scattered. […]

Slight Lineup Changes
