Welcome to the next episode of Farscape Flashbacks! Our reposting of our Farscape season one and two podcasts that we did on another podcasting network so you can more easily listen to them here.

Here's our "original" show notes for this episode. Enjoy!

Eric and Jason review the first two parts of Farscape’s second ever three part storyline, "Liars, Guns and Money". And during all that, wander off on tangents about Star Wars, the A-Team and past episodes of this here podcast.

First up, Part 1 - A Not So Simple Plan. Which is pretty much as advertised. Stark (hey, isn’t he dead?) has a not so simple plan to steal enough money to buy D’Argo’s son Jothee from the slavers holding him captive. With such a complicated plan, it goes off without any issues at all. No… who are we kidding? Of course not. The crew must deal with a heavily secured depository, its leader, and our old buddy Scorpius to get what they need.

Finally, Part 2 - With Friends Like These… After learning that all their efforts last time weren’t quite good enough, this time it’s Crichton who comes up with his own somewhat simpler plan to free Jothee. But it involves recruiting several people we met in season one who they didn’t leave on the best of terms with. It goes better than you’d expect, but there’s yet another complication that might make their hard work all for naught. And Crichton has to make a hard choice…

Welcome to the next episode of Farscape Flashbacks! Our reposting of our Farscape season one and two podcasts that we did on another podcasting network so you can more easily listen to them here.

Here's our "original" show notes for this episode. Enjoy!

Eric and Jason have been gone for a little while due to real life, but we’re back with two above average episodes to make up for it.

First up, The Ugly Truth, where Crais tries to get Moya’s crew to help him disarm Talyn. But things don’t go according to plan and the crew has to recount, from each of their perspectives, what went wrong or else face summary execution.

Finally, A Clockwork Nebari, where Chiana learns some truths, some ugly, some not-so-ugly, about her people and her brother. Meanwhile the crew is mentally cleansed by the aforementioned Nebari and have to snap out of it if they’re going to get away.

We're more than a third of the way through Farscape season 4. In this one, season 4, episode 8 - I Shrink, Therefore I Am, most of the crew have been captured by bounty hunters in really cool armor. And it's up to Crichton, with some assistance by our newly helpful crewmate Scorpius, to rescue them. To make things worse, the hunters shrink all the crew and keep them in containers inside their armor so that Crichton can't risk harming them. Time for some cunning plans and snide comments. You know, the usual Farscape plan. What could possibly go wrong?

This time around, we review Farscape season 4, episode 7 - John Quixote. Not that you would think of Don Quixote from practically anything in this episode... Anyway... Chiana pulls Crichton into a VR game that quickly goes off the rails. Apparently Stark has it out for Crichton because of Zhaan's death last season and has made up a VR game to trap Crichton and make him suffer. But things don't work out the way Stark probably wanted. There's Easter eggs and cameos galore in this one, especially the surprise guest star at the end. A live action version of the animated Revenging Angel episode from last season. Kind of.

Only the one episode of Farscape this time around as we're waiting for the next Marvel or Star Wars shows to premiere. This time, Farscape season 4, episode 6 - Natural Election. Aeryn and Crichton are about to have "the talk" about Aeryn's baby but just as they start Moya is rocked by a collision and explosions. Seems she's covered in some kind of space plant that begins digesting her. The crew rush to get rid of the plant before Moya is destroyed, with their new bestest buddy Scorpius even lending a hand. All this and also the crew picks a captain, with some surprising votes being cast.

We continue our trip through the final season of Farscape with season 4, episode 5 - Promises. The crew finally are reunited (and it feels so good) with Moya, Pilot and Aeryn. And a not-so-welcome new addition to our crew. But Aeryn's not feeling all that well and the person who made her that way drops by for some revenge.

Then we finish our review and discussion of the last half of season 1 of Star Wars: The Acolyte with episodes 5 - 8. We liked the series overall, giving it 7 out of 8 stars (one episode really didn't go over well with us). We absolutely loved the intricate and wild lightsaber battles in these episodes. And loved speculating about the nature of Jedi vs. Sith, the Rule of Two and our creepy lurker buddy Darth Plagueis.

Episode #25! Not that we planned anything for this milestone, but we do have a larger than normal sized episode this time around. First up, Farscape season 4, episode 4 - Lava's a Many Splendored Thing. Still no sign of Aeryn (maybe next time). The crew lands on a barren planet covered in, you guessed it, lava, in search of food. Unfortunately things go about as well as you'd expect and they get trapped by a group of thieves whom Noranti mistakes as friendly freedom fighters. Cue the hijinks!

And then after Farscape, we recap and discuss the first four episodes of the latest Star Wars live action show on Disney+, The Acolyte. Despite the Internet kerfuffle and review bombing of the early episodes, we both liked it. We have some ideas on what might have been a more interesting premise for the main antagonist(s), but overall, we like the mystery they've set up so far. And one of us has some wild theories who the dark master behind things could be.

We wrap up the first multipart story of season 4 of Farscape - episode 3, What Was Lost (Part 2): Resurrection. We were not entirely impressed with part one, so see if we think they bring it home in part two and come to a satisfying conclusion. We do get to continue learning more about our new villain, Commandant Grayza. And they do give us some cliffhangers, or unresolved plot points at least, to chew on and hope they come back to them in the future.

And then after Farscape, we briefly discuss the latest Star Wars shorts on Disney+, Tales of the Empire. We liked how they filled in the gaps with Morgan Elsbeth's life that led her to where we first saw her in The Mandalorian, and later in Ahsoka. And we also liked the 2nd part with what happened to Barriss Offee, former Jedi. Even though one of us forgot she even existed.
