John Crichton: You're the closest friend I have.

D'Argo: You could have done better.

Crichton: Nowhere in the universe.

And they were kind of girl best friends here

“The Peacekeeper Wars: Part I”

[karasbroken]

I figure, what the heck, maybe everyone on Tumblr hasn't seen all my favorite Farscape fanvids, so I'll start sharing them. Call it music Mondays.

This amazing one from @hll1981-blog is a little different than the shippy vids I usually love, but the song is frelling perfect (Radioactive by Imagine Dragons), the editing is very fun, and it's got so much energy. I get a little tore up when I watch this because it's mostly clips from Peacekeeper Wars and my precious John, wisecracking astronut. is just unrecognizable doing two-fisted gun-fu and bringing down the apocalypse because he has a wife and a child and zero fucks left to give for anything else.

"We paint ourselves red, to fit right in.... This is it, the apocalypse."

I will never stop my mad respect for this show being willing to take this man on that journey, but the end result is a little hard to watch. But watch it anyway.

the new excuse is that our flag means death was cancelled for “violence”. 🙄🙄🙄🙄

Farscape was also cancelled for bogus reasons, but fans brought it back for Peacekeeper Wars!

Doing some impromptu Tumblring vs my usual weekend escapism and Jeff’s Dum Dum comes on my playlist and I’m transported to a happy plain of existence.

Sooo much season 2 potential taken away from us fandom. I will always miss this show. Very few shows make that list (Sense8, Farscape & Stargate SG1)

[stargatebarbie]

sg1 really did get Ben Browder and Claudia Black on a 2 for 1 deal directly after peacekeeper wars huh

How successful would John Crichton…

[indelibleevidence]

It's been weeks since I finished my Farscape rewatch, but Ben Browder's portrayal of John 'Fine, you want a wormhole weapon? Here's a wormhole weapon, you fuckers' Crichton is still haunting me.

Spoilers:

He is just so good in that scene. I can't find any gifs in the gif search, but his face just contains every single drop of the pain and trauma he's undergone, hunted and tortured and manipulated and even raped, all for this knowledge he never wanted to be used as a weapon. He's been pushed to destroy Peacekeeper and Scarran bases, the latter by using the worst weapon humans had ever managed to develop on Earth. Innocent people have died because of the need to protect this knowledge these two galactic superpowers are desperate to obtain. Some he knew by name - Crais, Talyn - but some just happened to be in the proximity on the bases, including the children of soldiers.

And he is just done. Everything has been for nothing, because now he's showing them what they all think they want, and hey, big surprise, it's something no one should have, just like he's always said. And more people are dying, even as they all watch, and there's nothing even he can do to stop it until they all agree to stop the war. And that will be on his shoulders for the rest of his life.

It's rare that you get a climactic scene in a series that actually seems worth all the trouble they've gone through, but Farscape does it so well.
