I wanted to like this show more than I did. Love some of the ideas (living ship, bound living pilot, the peacekeepers), but disliked some of the wackier bits and execution of some of the ideas. It's definitely not a show for everyone. If you don't like it half way into season 2 when it properly starts kicking into the wormhole stuff, you aren't going to. I think that's partly why I didn't like it as much as I wanted too, everything ended up revolving around wormholes and ehhh......

[nightscale]

I actually avoided this show for years because I thought I'd hate it for some reason, then I finally sat down to watch it not too long ago and I really enjoyed it, like I want to know everything about the setting(aliens, ships etc).

But sometimes we end up loving what we expect to dislike and disliking what we expect to love, it's weird.

[cakemage]

Icon love. Zhaan and her blue hotness are the main reason I keep watching.

[nightscale]

She's one of the big draws for me too, I really like her but I've also grown interested in other things too which is fun.

[(Anonymous)]

I've seen all of it, but I don't love it. I kept watching because Claudia Black was fantastic; the eps she missed due to her pregnancy were excruciatingly bad.

[(Anonymous)]

Gotta agree with you on Claudia Black being the absolute best part of the show. Before finding this show on Netflix, I had only ever known her as "that distinctive-looking genre-famous woman who's in an episode or two of everything." It was a bit of a surprise to me to see just how compelling she was, even if it wasn't enough for me to keep watching past about the midway point of season 2.

[(Anonymous)]

6 episodes is about my cutoff point, too.

[(Anonymous)]

Let's face it: Muppets in space on crack is a niche genre.

[(Anonymous)]

I wish that were a real thing.

[(Anonymous)]

...that is my go-to description of Farscape.

Sorry, Nonny...

[(Anonymous)]

... but now I want to see the Pigs in Space version.

[(Anonymous)]

I feel this way about Firefly.

This is Farscape, right? I think I watched the first couple of episodes of this show a few years back but didn't really care about what was happening.

[(Anonymous)]

Ugh! Firefly does not deserve the fanfare and love it gets.

[dinogrrl]

I remember seeing an odd episode here and there as a kid and I loved the aesthetics but I never had any clue what was going on. May be time to revisit this one!

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sad that you didn't like this show because I adore it, but I can get behind the 6 episode rule, even if something "got better in season two". I'd rather not waste my time on it.

[(Anonymous)]

I do think that if you're going to give something "only six episodes" it's not a bad idea to ask a fan which six episodes to watch. For example, Parks and Rec: if I had started with the first six episodes rather than being dropped into Season 2, I would never have watched it. The first six episodes of that show are...not good.

I felt like I should like it better

[(Anonymous)]

It's sci-fi! It's goofy! It's got muppets! It's different!

And... I only ever kind of liked it.

[wldcatsprstr_14]

That's legit, OP. I love Farscape, but I have feels similar to yours about Firefly. Everyone told me how I'd love it. I finished it and watched Serenity and...meh. Honestly didn't care for it. So I've learned to accept that I generally don't enjoy what others around me have hyped when it comes to TV.

[ninety6tears]

I'm on S2 and it's so very silly but I'm enjoying it. It feels very...Australian. And I honestly really love John?

Three episodes is my limit if I'm not getting into something. I sort of hesitate to look up what happened in the first three eps of this show.

[fingalsanteater]

8 episodes is my cut-off, though sometimes I'll be so bored that I'll stop after 2 or 3 and then come back to it much later and try again. I remember I wasn't into Merlin BBC at all, stopped trying to watch it for about a year, came back and ended up loving it. (This is the show that also gave me 8 episode rule because that's what it took.)

Re: Farscape, it's once of my favorite shows and I love it. Tbh, I have a hard time imagining why someone wouldn't like it because it's everything I'd ever want in a show, but I like weird, dark sci-fi and muppets A LOT, so.

[lb_lee]

Wow, anon, three seasons of a show you didn't like. I'm impressed, I'm bad at watching three seasons of a show I LOVE!

[ladyguinevere83.livejournal.com]

Eh, I started watching when it was first on and found it pretty dull and gave up. While I was on maternity leave I burned through a lot of old series and that was one. I did make it all the way through this time, but it was just sort of okay. Guess some things don't change!

Teresa Nielsen Hayden had a good answer for all those people who whine "But you can't judge a work unless you've read/watched/listened to the whole thing!"

Sure you can. You don't need to drink a whole carton of milk before you can tell that it's bad.
