Farscape, The Show That Makes Me Sob Like a Biiiiitch

[regala_electra]

I just...

I sobbed. So fucking hard.

And I stuck to the Old Rule of Sci-Fi/Fantasy for as long as I could.

It's not a death if there's not a body. If there's not a fucking burnt corpse. If there's not a...

Then the planet was just swallowed up.

D'Argo is dead.

Dead.

D'Argo Sun Crichton.

Harvey's gone forever.

Sikuzo showed her true nature.

The Peacekeepers and Scarrans have a temporary agreement for peace. Not very likely to last considering those glares.

And Scorpius, the half-breed, residing over the union - god. I really do not like what was going on behind that face.

Just wait for the fucking Nebari, man.

There was a lot of beautiful things to admire. To revel in. But besides this hell of a cold I'm fighting, I just can't...

Who's your daddy?

It's D'Argo.

Frell.

Oh, the story may have paused on a possibly hopeful note, but all the sacrifice, all that is lost, and all that is still up in the air.

It's hard to love this show sometimes just because it's so emotionally engaging. But oh.

Oh.

Aeryn walks out, moments after giving birth, shooting.

John is revived by his son.

There is no happy ending, but there is someday...hope.

Yes. Yes.

Aeryn, so trusting to leave the baby there, as if she knew they needed that moment to connect. An act of desperation and hope, and one that paid off. And John, rolling over and saying, "You scared me. Where'd you come from?" to that baby. I bawled.

I watched Pt 1 again when it reran last night and caught a whole lot more than I did the first time. I suspect Part 2 will be the same.

And I still have all of S4 to watch, too.

But, oh, what an ending.

I miss D'Argo.

God, I love that icon. But then, I realized during the miniseries, "Oh, I'm a lame, lame and total shipper" after I made a sort of squeaking noise of joy while they got married (for reals, yo).

There's ton to notice in the miniseries, one of the reasons I love Farscape, so. I taped all four hours and will hopefully re-watch it, but may fastfoward during D'Argo's last stand...because it still hurts. Man, it hurts.

But, oh, what an ending.

Hell yeah.

I bawled too. And then again when Pilot asked after D'Argo, and the rest. And then some more when John fell out of the wormhole machine.

But seriously, how Lion King-esque was that last scene with the baby? Very schmoopy and fun too.

"Beyond Little D, the only thing greater than yourself!"

Very Roots-esque as well. I think it was sort of an obvious wink to the audience, of course the Lion King is going to be realized, but it was fitting, along with the reference to Green Eyed Monster: Aeryn telling their son that all the stars were his with John cutting in, pointing to the brightest star, "Except that one."

Oh shut up, I so totally don't have a tear in my eye. It's just...er...*mutters in tissue*
