I’m not the dedicated fan that some of you are, although I like the show. I just have to say that even if the show were mediocre overall, it would have all been worth it to see the over-the-top villain-in-black Scorpius in his offensively bright Hawaiian print shirt, sucking down a margarita. Even if it was just in the mind of a somewhat-deranged Crichton, that was _fun_.

I liked Stark’s intoduction, but I’m kind of lukewarm to him in later shows.

I’m going to give Stark a chance. I _want_ to like him. And yes, I agree, Balance! Seeing some of these characters in such bizarre garb is really a hoot!

I was glued to the news all day, but managed to put today’s episode of “Farscape” on timer. I just finally got around to watching it. I needed the diversion, and damn, it helped. It was a good episode, too.

I’m going to look into getting the “Farscape” book!
