Juliette’s Farscape look-back considers which was its best season, a tricky decision to make…
But an answer, however debateable it might be, usually presents itself fairly quickly.
Farscapewas a remarkably consistent series, which maintained a certain level of quality throughout its run.
That isnt to say all seasons were completely equal.
Season one, then, isnt the best season.
SoFarscapes best season is either season two or season three.
Season three is an extraordinary season of television.
Aeryn starts out dead, but gets better.
And thats just the regular cast!
And so we come to season two.
Some of season twos highlights include:
Crackers Dont Matter
It is completely bonkers.
With this episode,Farscapefound its own, gloriously mad USP.
The exceptions, at first, seemed to be Crichton and Pilot.
The anger and disappointment shown by the whole crew is completely understandable.
Die Me, DichotomyAs end-of-season cliff-hangers go, this one takes some beating.
