As a die-hard SG-1 fan, I can honestly say that I have watched every single episode of Stargate SG-1, plus all of the bonus features… at least twice if not more. Seeing as there are ten seasons and over two hundred episodes, that is no mean feat. It’s taken a lot of time and effort… you know, lifting the remote.. switching discs, etc*… to finish the entire series more than once. But it’s a sacrifice someone had to make.

Also, Richard Dean Anderson is my hero. (See picture)

Anyway… I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how many great episodes there are in Stargate SG-1, but up until last night I didn’t have a clear concept of how much the word “many” entails. When I counted them out, I found 60.  And so, after being prodded by Dan to write in our fabulously geeky blog, I decided to figure out which really ARE the best. So starting with this post, I’m going to watch them all and narrow it down (as best I can).

Here are the best episodes of Stargate SG-1, by season/episode: (be aware that there are 60 episodes in this list… so by reading on, you are asking for it…) Read the rest of this entry »

If someone were to ask me right now what Farscape is about, I would say love. Or maybe more specifically: making out with aliens. It occured to me about halfway through the first season, after Crichton’s little fling with Gilina, a Peacekeeper from Aeryn’s past. If I remember correctly, and I DO for the record, because I’m awesome, Crichton soon after realizes that he has feelings for Aeryn. Regardless of this, he makes out with EVERYONE. In one episode, in fact, I’m pretty sure he even kisses D’argo. And makes a pass at Rygel. But mostly, Crichton kisses lots of aliens, sometimes directly in front of Aeryn (which, if you as me, probably does not help one bit), and he likes it.

He is also partially crazy. He screams a lot. But I guess that I would do that too, if I were lost in a distant part of space with strange aliens who sometimes screw me completely.

It applies to more than just Crichton, though, because there is a lot of love on Farscape. Crichton loves Aeryn, but he also loves D’argo, and Zhaan. Chianna, too, but in a different way. Chianna pretty much only loves Crichton and D’argo. Zhaan loves everyone, except maybe Rygel. Aeryn has a deep connection with Pilot because she has his DNA embedded in her own, and she has strong feelings of love for everyone else except for Rygel. Zhaan loves Stark. Pilot, Moya, and Zhaan have their own weird little love triangle, incited mostly by Zhaan’s singing.

And that’s that.
