Farscape & Stargate SG-1 New Seasons Tonight

marekk writes "Frelling A! The fourth season of Farscape, arguably the best Sci-Fi currently on television premieres tonight on the SciFi Channel. You can catch the premiere episode, titled "Crichton Kicks" at 9PM CST. Afterwards, you can watch the premiere of Stargate SG-1's sixth season, "Redemption"." I've been watching the SG1 season 1 box set and am impressed. Its a solid show, and I'm looking forward to season it without the benefit of syndication lag, even if there are problems. As for Farscape... well, Duh!

    Should be interesting.
    Most of the crew is gone, Talon and Kreis are dead, Moya was sucked in to a workhole and John was left floating in space all alone with no fuel.

    What a way to start a new season.

    "if you think otherwise, you're a loser. no flame intended - just good ole self-evidence."

    I hate when people say stuff like this. A show doesn't have to be universally accepted as 'good' for somebody to enjoy it.

    I'm a Deep Space Nine fan. I even like the bad eps of DS9 because I have found something I really appreciate about it: it's overall visual quality. The sets are very nice and the effects are top notch.

    Do I expect everybody to like DS9? Nope. I found something in particular I really like about it. There are a lot of people that say it sucks. So what? It just means that those people don't appreciate the same stuff that I do.

    Call me a loser over it, however, and all you're doing to do is convince me that you judge people for petty reasons. "You suck because you like shows that I don't."

    You can't measure somebody by the shows they watch. All you're doing is giving other people a means to judge you, negatively.

    Great! Now I don't have to bother actually watching the third season You managed to sum up almost everything that happens and kill any surprises that might have popped up.

    +1 Informative? -2 Unwarned Spoiler!

    makes me wish I had moderator points to keep this tragedy from happening to anyone else who is unlucky enough to not get the show and has to wach it much later.

    Many season 1 shows aren't all that great, even (especially?) sci-fi shows. Look at shows like the X-Files, ST:TNG (really all the ST spin-offs) or Earth: Final Conflict. Shows evolve as characters are developed, bad plot decisions from the first seasons are written off and fan input is worked into the new episodes. Stargate: SG-1 took a season or two before many of the kinks were worked out and a few story plotlines could be established. Now if I could only remember when it comes on I'd be set.

    I find it ironic that someone like yourself would use a word like 'frelling' in your subject.
