Not a trekkie, but and seriously into my B5 and Farscape.

>and i'm in shock.

I don't get home in time to watch Farscape. I discovered it just before=20
christmas when I accidentally caught an episode, and the depth of story had=
=20
me hooked from there. So, I started downloading every episode I could get=20
my hands on (why are the DVDs =A3100 per season, and how are you supposed to=
=20
afford 3 seasons' worth when you're addicted and playing catch-up?). I now=
=20
have 18GB, comprising the first 2 seasons. I watched the end of season 2=20
cliff-hanger a couple of days ago.

on top of all that it is also the raunchiest
>relationship storyline ever.

I assume you mean the Crichton/Aeryn storyline? Now, I know that she ain't=
=20
dead (well duh), but I can't wait to find out whether or not John had the=20
healer remove his memory of her, and how that will affect their=20
relationship when she's revived.

But yeah, the season 3 episode I caught was meltdown. I love farscape's=20
drug episodes, and that was a real good one. It's good to see characters in=
=20
a sci-fi show not only getting it on with each other (and quite graphically=
=20
so), but going through all the messy bits of relationships when the bad=20
times hit. (Which they do, and hard.)

Right, must stop enthusing and continue watching. Social-life permitting, I=
=20
should get through a fair chunk of season 3 this weekend.

Seb.
