I liked Farscape a lot up until this point - here's where I completely lost my mind over it. First Crackers Don't Matter — then The Way We Weren't — then Look at the Princess — it's an amazing stretch of episodes.

I didn't get a chance to rewatch the episode, but I remember rolling my eyes when the money guy got up there, and then realizing - along with Geoffrey - that the money guy was a person, too. It was a great moment.

That Lear production - I didn't like S3 that much, but it was all worth it for that. It was incredible. It was transcendent.

It's odd - I liked S2 less than S1 - but the reviews are reminding me of just how funny S2 was, and now I want to rewatch it. The new marketing campaign was my absolutely favorite part of the season.

I always got the impression that he was burnt out on theater, that he looks for a story about drama taking place in the company and never focusing on the play itself. It's the way he licks his pencil when Jack's about to speak, as if he already has his story and he's just waiting for Jack to bear it out.

I agree - especially in comparison with the young Geoffrey we've seen, Jack is a weaker presence.

Now I'm disappointed that we never got to see that.

This episode is everything.

Darren was in fine form this episode. "What is this obsession you people have with breakfast? I was stabbed by a madman!" And when he told Geoffrey good bye and "I hope it kills you this time." His delivery is superb.

It's interesting, I always thought he was mad - he has a medical history that aligns with that possibility, he's suddenly thrust back into a place that holds a lot of very painful memories for him, and one of the key people in his early career just died so he's expected to oversee the very play that made him famous…

One thing I love in this episode - out of many - is the way Anna, Geoffrey, and Ellen all know exactly what is meant by "the thing". Geoffrey hasn't seen them in years, but there are these undercurrents - implied years of knowledge - just running through the dialogue. It's fantastic.

Eh, Darren Nichols is one of my favorite parts of the show.
