Okay, I'm officially watching Farscape. (damn you, kuwdora, for sending such an amazing selection of crack!). Usually when people start watching Farscape they seem to deliver some sort of brilliant meta, but all I've got so far is a raging crush on Aeryn Sun. We'll see.

Yay! Farscape! Aeryn!! Damn, I really need a FS icon...

[synecdochic]

I think "a raging crush on Aeryn Sun" is profound enough. *g*

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to focus on the profound and different view of extraterrestrial cultures etc. but my brain keeps butting in with BOOTS: SHE IS STILL WEARING THEM.

And then I headdesk. Hello, Aeryn Sun. I was previously unacquainted with this level of televised hotness.

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

I hear there is fic and/or vids out there somewhere. Hm.

Seriously, it is all very yay. \o/

[sol-se.livejournal.com]

Hee! Why, yes, there is! I'm not on my own computer, otherwise I'd be so reccing up a storm right now. Consider this warning for later reccage. *g*

Yay, Farscape!

[synecdochic]

Wait until you get to That Little Strip Of Tummy.

[roxy-palace.livejournal.com]

Oh Aeryn...She is worth crushing on. I'm still not really over her.

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

I kind of hope I never have to be. I love closed canons. ::sigh::

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

Oh god.
At this point she's still wearing snowpants, but I'm told to, you know. Brace myself for future seasons.

[synecdochic]

Aeryn Sun is hotter displaying only That Little Strip Of Tummy than any Playboy model could ever hope to be.

[roxy-palace.livejournal.com]

Ture...true...Things get really rough foir her near the end, and it's amazing. She's amazing. Hope you like it!

[beatrice_otter]

Well, Aeryn's a girl worth having a crush on. I don't swing that way, but I have a totally non-romantic crush on her just for, you know, her total kick-assness.

Happy to see another Farscape convert! This is, in my opinion, the most under appriciated show that I've ever seen (or heard of).

*twirls you round*

Where are you up to? Have you reached the point where the show hits its stride and gets really good (close to the end of season 1) yet?

LOL! So I'm not the only one, then.

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

I am only to episode 4 as of right now, as that's all I've got on DVD - but I just joined Certain Select Comms, so I think I'm going to catch up pretty quick. My goal is to pace myself and not mainline the whole thing in a week *g*

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

hah, I seem to swing that way mostly in sci-fi television, but - man, Aeryn.

Nice to meet you!

[rydra_wong]

Oh, you're not even near the really good stuff yet. So if you're enjoying it now, just wait ...

My goal is to pace myself and not mainline the whole thing in a week

This is very sensible, as I suspect that could actually cause your head to explode.

(Okay if I summon the puppy pile, btw? We are the fandom that likes to run up and squee at newbies *g*.)

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

Well, it's nice to meet all of you! People told me to brace for a giant puppy-pile and I didn't quite believe them *g* Now I do.

Yeah, I'd never paid it sufficient attention, I think because I kept catching bits of season 3 on tv and not having any clue what was going on - but kuwdora totally gets her pimping toaster for this one.

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

synecdochic already sent a passel of people over, but sure, if you like!

I am having to actively resist looking for fic, because I know I'll get spoiled, but - it is out there, yes? Surely.

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

Far from, from the look of this thread. Oh, Farscape.

[rydra_wong]

Actually, I think it's compulsory for everyone who watches the show to have a crush on Aeryn, regardless of gender or orientation. *g*

[rydra_wong]

The fic is out there, yes! Perhaps slightly less of it than you'd expect, but that's primarily because the show itself covered a lot of the emotional consequences that are normally left to fic; some people feel less need to write fic for it for that reason.

But there is some very awesome fic out there nonetheless. Not to mention astonishing vids: most viddable show ever.

[sapote3.livejournal.com]

I know, my vidding fingers are already itching. I might cave and vid from season 1 before I start watching season 2 - though, of course, the second I do that, season 2 will have all the perfect clips *g*

[sdwolfpup.livejournal.com]

*waves* Here under the puppy-pile flag. I just started re-watching the show again last night and was reminded of how very much I adore Aeryn Sun. Claudia Black is MAGICAL.

Also, once you get further along, I have a Farscape Vid Recs (http://www.livejournal.com/users/sdwolfpup/157288.html) post (that I need to update, dammit), but BE CAREFUL because there are MAJOR spoilers in the vids and it's so worth being unspoiled for this show. It's hard to wait, but the reward is worth the cost of waiting. :) Yay, Farscape!
