This post is especially for fellow evildoer and diehard "Farscape" fan La Parisienne (who, incidentally does love to refer to the wisecracking lead character, Ben Browder playing astronaut John Crichton, as "Big Ben"). The sci-fi series is finally out on DVD, and it's on sale at Amazon. W00t! It was an imaginative, lively show, and it combined action and humor along with some fascinating character development and fun cast members (although I never did like "Granny") that included Moya, a spaceship that was actually alive.
This DVD set just might see me through the coming Valley of the Shadow of Death known as end-of-term papers and exams ...
So, for La Parisienne and all you other sci fi fans, here is a cast photo, with Big Ben front and center.
Frell yeah!
OK, the awesomely entertaining JJ Abrams' revamped "Star Trek" is also out on DVD and Blu-Ray today, and I'm all enthused about that too, but it was a mega-hit and bound to out on DVD for its adoring fans. "Farscape," though, was much smaller phenomenon, and for a long, long while, it was almost impossible to get any of it on DVD.
So, given the nerd-tastic combination of all this sci fi fun on DVD today? NERDGASM. Now I have to go to a seminar, bleagh.
