- Braca says: Go Kings Go!
The first time we saw the mural of Johnny Cash on the outside wall of the Gasser Lounge, Katie and I agreed he looked like Lt. Braca from Farscape.
- Not So Farscape
This logo really reminds me of the Farscape logo. It’s not the same font, but it’s close enough to evoke the same feel.
- Fire Twirling With Farscape’s Chiana
Actress Gigi Edgley, probably best known to American audiences as Chiana on Farscape, has another talent: fire twirling. She’s been performing at the weekly Huntington Beach street fair with (I think) her boyfriend, and plugged the show at the latest Farscape convention in Burbank last month. My parents, also Scapers, set up a trip with […]
- Sci-fi mommy
I can’t believe nobody’s made this comparison yet……it looks like the producers of “Lost” picked the wrong SF TV-show lead to be Alex’s mom: Of course, it’s entirely possible that they might be able to land Claudia for a recurring guest spot as her “mother” (flashbacks maybe?), and thus call into question through visuals alone […]
- Stargate: The Gatekeeper Wars?
Apparently Stargate: SG-1 has been canceled after 10 seasons. I wasn’t a fan, but you’ve got to admit, 10 seasons is a serious accomplishment. But I found one remark interesting: Ironically, this is the first year since Season Four that plans were already in place, both creatively and in signed actor contracts, for another year. […]
- Only in San Diego? Volume 2 Part 2
Amusing sights from Comic-Con and around town: faith insurance, Xena’s coffee, the Pikachu bug, and more, including…the pastrami love burger?
- Farce Cape
A caption I always wanted to write. From “Crackers Don’t Matter,” one of Farscape’s more comedic episodes.
- Fargate!
Okay, this has got to be one of the strangest pairs of sci-fi news stories I’ve seen in a while. First, Farscape star Ben Browder (John Crichton) will join the cast of Stargate SG-1 for its ninth season. (No word yet about his character, though I suppose he could appear as Daniel Jackson’s long-lost brother.) Now it turns […]
- Spoiler-free FPKW Review
Three words: Holy frelling dren! Alternate review: “Boom. Boom boom boom. Boom boom. Boom! Have a nice day!”
- One door closes…
Since we’ve started showing Babylon 5 to a new group, I’ve been surfing the Lurker’s Guide and other sites. I came across an interesting tidbit about the spinoff series Crusade that I had forgotten. At the point that TNT cancelled Crusade (13 episodes into filming, and months before it aired), Warner Bros. tried to sell […]
- They’re already here
A couple of weeks ago, the landscaping wonks for my work building ripped out all the hedges in the parking-lot divider islands and heavily mulched the ground. They didn’t put anything new in until the middle of last week, when I noticed a slew of newly-planted birds of paradise on the exit side as we […]
- Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars Preview (SDCC 2004)
The Farscape cast and producers showed off an incredible trailer and held a fun Q&A session for the miniseries that follows the show’s cliffhanger.
- SpamAssassin Logo Contest
Just saw a link for the current entries in the SpamAssassin Logo Contest. Entries range from a simple updating of the current logo through ninjas of varying danger and cuteness levels, and a few that have actually dropped the ninja motif altogether. Oddly, a few of them remind me of the Peacekeeper insignia from Farscape. […]
- But he wasn’t the one on drums
Went to the Counting Crows concert last night. They have a D’Amico drum set. Between the (all-caps) font and the distance, I kept misreading it as D’Argo!
- Nobody has dreams about…..
Fishfax was in a discussion today about dreams and related that she had one about eating pizza with piña coladas. If it were margaritas, I’d really question her sanity.
- Sorting the Leviathan
I realized this morning what struck me as odd about the original crew of Moya: they’re not a crew, they’re a D&D party. Two warriors, a priest, a thief, and Ordinary Guy (who’d probably be classed as a bard). We started trying to categorize everyone else who shows up and realized that we’d need to […]
- Cancellations
When it comes to serial entertainment, everything will end at some point. I’m sure even Superman and Spider-Man comics will cease someday. A show can end before or after it’s run out of things to say, but it’s worst when it hasn’t finished speaking. We’ve all seen shows that kept going long after, by any […]
- Not where I was expecting it!
The mystery of where the Farscape miniseries will air has been answered! From Sci-Fi Wire [archive.org]: SCI FI announced it will be bringing back Farscape with an all-new miniseries — called Farscape: Peacekeeper War — slated to air in the fourth quarter of this year. WTF? OK, it’s not the last place I’d expect – […]
- Damn flowering Delvians
I swear there’s a Delvian colony trapped somewhere without food, and they’re upwind of Orange County. Please, someone have mercy on my sinuses and drop them a couple of cows.
- FarPlates
You know that car game where you look at all the license plates going by and you have to come up with a word using all the letters in order? (Okay, now show of hands for the people who didn’t learn it from me.) I got bored with that and started looking for letters that […]
- Halloween madness
So work decided to do Halloween on the 30th rather than the 31st because some people don’t work Fridays. This was a good thing, considering that we have not only a potluck but also a costume contest and a pumpkin-carving contest all on the same day and I have a finite amount of time after […]
- Cybernetic counselors….
Typing the title “C.R.C.” after a counselor’s name today, I started out with my finger on D instead of C and nearly turned her into a Farscape maintenance droid. Don’t think she’d have been happy about that.
