Farscape

>>86158270
In the fucking pilot he calculates something so advanced that the aliens haven't even thought of it in seconds

>>86158329
he seems like he has an iq below 90

Well then you're a bigger idiot than you think he is.

>>86158374
Well for most of the series he is an environment he has zero knowledge of and he has severe untreated PTSD

The whole point of Farscape is that the human isn't better than all the aliens but actually significantly inferior to most of them because humanity is far behind in it's evolution.

That's why the pilot and the intro is so Buck Rodgers, it's taking that early pulp premise of earth man ends up in space opera and flipping it so that the earth man isn't a super saiyan god

>>86158438
>implying PTSD is real

what is the point of this thread, to prove how much of a cunt you are?

>>86158596
they probably wanted to start a farscape thread so they made a shitpost to get some replies to keep it bumped

Fingers crossed for another season. Ben could still pull it off.

isn't it shown later on that Ayylmaos planted framework of worm hole travel in his head?

>>86158701
Never gonna happen. Why do people still expect it?

F.

>>86158980

Maybe because there's a script for a movie floating around? Could lead to a new season.

>>86159151
t-theatrical?

Is it just me or is Guardian's of the Galaxy very similar to farscape?

>Star-Lord is essentially the same character as John Crichton
>Groot is Zhaan, both are plants
>Drax is D'argo, both warrior types
>Gamora is Aeryn, both alien humanoid, romantic leads

Both franchises follow a team of misfit alien outlaws on the run.

>>86159194

Doubt it. Probably a TV movie.

The rest of the crew weren't exactly the intellectual giants of their respective species. Except based Sparky. He's everyone's superior.

No. He discovers them by a freak accident. Over the course of the series they do implant the knowledge in his head, which is why Scorpious wants him so bad.

>>86159635
Scorpius makes The Monarch look sinister

>>86158701
I love Farscape and that's why I'm letting it go. It's over with a great ending. Nothing more is needed.

>>86158499
I like Farscape, but the show was so outlandish most of the time that the whole "it reversed classic sci-fi tropes" meme I keep hearing never seemed relevant even if it's true. No one cares about classic tropes of the genre being creatively challenged or whatever when you are getting episodes like Crackers Don't Matter thrown at you every other week.

>>86158270
Stargate crossover was best season

>>86160846
go to bed warren ellis, it's 3am

>>86161019
it's not significant to farscape but when you compare it to the other shows of the time which were terrified of being even a normal space opera it becomes notable

>>86158270
Dude do you even know what a real astronaut is? They're basically jocks that can math

>>86158701
Let it go, we've seen time and time again that reviving a series just doesn't work. The people, time and place that make something magical in the first place isn't something you can recreate and years of expectation cast a huge shadow over any revival and make every disappointment even worse.

>>86161148
I think Stargate actually sort of pioneered in its own way by totally embracing the military and portraying it in a positive light. In all other ways it was extremely formulaic, but that was the first time I've ever seen a science fiction show go so completely in for depicting the military as a positive force in the world.

>>86161158
>They're basically jocks that can math
Through the Apollo missions they used test pilots because they needed the kind of people with nuts big enough to strap themselves into experimental jet aircraft because who the fuck else do you give that job too?
By the time the space shuttle was in operation you had flight officers, but you saw civilian scientists going up. Obviously there's a minimum physical requirement, but old ass john glen was able to pass muster, so you just need to not be a total chud fatbody.

>>86161520
..and Chricton was a test pilot. He fits this archetype. It's just a fun show, why don't you relax a little.

Point is they were chosen for being presentable on TV. They weren't retarded or average by any means but presentability was the most important since the whole point was to beat Russia and show the public Fuck yeah 'murica

>>86158270
>Honestly he just doesn't seem smart enough to be an astronaut
He's an atmospheric propulsion specialist.
The one thing about John I didn't like was all the Earth pop culture references and idioms he'd spout. The aliens around him wouldn't even take notice of the nonsense he was spitting.
Were the translator microbes just not translating them or something?

You said it yourself.

Even with a straight translation, without context his pop culture references just came off as nonsense to the aliens.

>>86162870

personally i would say that wont get fooled again is the best 'zany' episode, closely followed by crackers dont matter

>>86162856
It's a Baby Boomer and Generation X thing. They think their pop culture memes are the center of the universe, and the height of hilarity is spouting those references to people who don't get them. Because people not getting such cosmically important pop culture references is inherently funny.

It is the worst form of humor because it isn't very funny to start with and it becomes extremely dated very quickly.

Fortunately Farscape had enough other things going for it that the reference humor never bothered me too much.

What in the hesmata is this frelneck talking about? If i have to listen to one more microt I'm going to go farbot!
He's spouting pop culture references to help keep his sanity, and he hears just as much crazy shit he doesn't understand from them.

Most just think he is batshit insane most of the time.
Though kinda understandable at that point in the series.
