I've seen this show so many times that I forgot what it's like to experience Virginia Hey's performance as Zhaan for the first time. She's so talented but that can sometimes be easy to overlook in a cast of outsize personalities. It's fun to see your take on her character and get a bit of that "Damn Zhaan is cool" feeling back.

Rygel is the best…and the worst. He cracks me up.

No matter how good you think these episodes are, you are only just beginning to see the greatness of this show as these are still just giving you an introduction to these characters and their universe.

For me - one of the reasons the show works so well is that we see it all from John's perspective. As a viewer we are thrown into this alien world just like John. As the episodes progress, we get to learn about this world as John is learning. He's always asking the same questions WE are.

Heh, that's the thing about Rygel: he grows on you like mold.

It's a small nitpick, but the Henson Creature Shop folks would probably like you to know that Rygel is actually not a muppet. The word muppet, as defined by Jim Henson way back in 1955, specifically refers to the colorful, somewhat silly cast of characters that were designed to appear in sketch comedy material and, later, children's shows and films (e.g. Fraggle Rock). But Henson and his Creature Shop created other puppet/animatronic creatures that were decidedly not muppets, including the creatures in Henson's 1892 film The Dark Crystal, the various critters in Farscape (notably Rygel and Pilot), and a number of feature films in various genres. Also, the Muppets IP was sold to Disney in 2004 (except for those that appear in Sesame Street, which continue to belong to the Henson company). But the Farscape characters were (thankfully, I say) not part of that deal. None of which diminishes the point you made about Rygel seeming completely real, because he does, and it's great. But, at least technically, he is not a Muppet. Sometimes I think one of the reasons this show didn't do better than it did was because people said "oh, muppets in space - great." Which the people making the show really hoped to avoid.

Rygel, from the pilot to the end of the series, and the following comics, has one of the best character development arcs in the series. And this is a series that excels at character development.

Farscape brought me to your channel. I absolutely love this show. I am here for the full ride. 4 seasons and a mini-series!

This episode really turns a corner with the relationships between all of them and we finally get see the Aeryn Sun we all love so much. I’d say PK Tech Girl is in many fans top 3 favorite episodes of the series.

Farscape is a terrific series , so creative , great plots and characters .

One of the things I love most about this show is how it has the habit of taking all the common scifi tropes and completely flipping them on their heads.

PK (Peace Keeper) Tech (Technically minded) Girl (Female) is my favoutite of the season 1 stories. Alyssa-Jane Cook plays the titular character, Gilina Renaez, our tachnically minded female Peace Keeper. In the order I watched these, PK Tech Girl was episode 6.

Fun science facts in the episode (okay, 1 fun one): Dargo most likely has an immune system like the horseshoe crab, where foreign entities are enclosed by a special type of cell, rather than our system of special cells that attack foreign entities. While we've figured out synthetic processes to make the relevant protein, we've long used and still use horeshoe crab blood in medical applications, particularly vaccine creation, to identify and eliminate endotoxins to ensure safety. About the bugs doing cleaning... we still use maggots to treat wounds with necrosis, particularly dismemberment. They are only interested in eating dead tissue, and consequently end up being extremely delicate pruners. Without them, we'd have no way to carefully remove dead tissue without causing further damage, increasing healing time, and increasing the chance of disease.

D’argo’s costume was a work in progress and this early version didn’t provide a lot of mobility. He lives up to his warrior nature more in later episodes and seasons.

"PK Tech Girl" is one of the best episodes of the first season. Not going to do any spoilers; but you learn a lot more about what makes Rigel into the being he is.

Simply one of the best sci fi series of all time! The characters are incredible. I got to meet Virginia Hey once. It was genuinely incredible to talk to her.

I'm convinced Shepard from Mass Effect was based on him in some ways - obviously as an RPG, you have the ability to play it very differently, but I'm sure the writers of Mass Effect were fans of Farscape; the world was obviously most influenced by Star Wars, but there's no way they aren't fans of Farscape, some of the characters feel very Farscape-y.

I love it. We're getting to see more depth to our characters. It's so fun to get to know them (again).

I am really loving how much you deep dive into analyzing the show before and after each episode. Aside from John, who is kind of a given as our surrogate into the greater universe of Farscape which makes him easy to empathize with, Zhaan is probably my favorite character of the show. While all the character get their various levels of nuance, her ability to flip a switch between the motherly priest and almost deranged violence is as fascinating as it can prove to be truly terrifying because of how unexpected that switch often is. I also like how there's a certain grudging camaraderie budding between Aeryn as a soldier and D'argo as a warrior, two vocations that have similar applications but very different ideologies - that camaraderie mostly gelling as a bemusement over John's "uselessness". I'm looking forward to you experiencing the character reveals and progression of each of the crew as the show moves forward. Especially looking forward to your reaction to "PK Tech Girl", the very first episode ever aired, which is what officially captured my imagination and pulled me almost bodily into the Farscape universe.

This was the 2nd episode in the original broadcast order. While the Pilot was great for setting up the premise, this was the first time we saw the characters for what they are - fighter, healer, monarch/trader and token human. It really gave the characters depth and showed that the writers/producers were seriously considering how these characters would interact, what drove each of them and how they could find common ground to work together. This is especially evident in the scenes with D'Argo and Aeryn where they talk about how they are recovering from the gauntlet and then Aeryn is helping D'Argo after he's injured, and the scenes where Zhaan is treating the Tavlek (little miss nice until she's not). Oh, and get used to the pet names for Rygel.

Looking at IMDB, I think you're watching these in broadcast order. That may not be what the producers wanted, but I think this is how those of us lucky enough to watch it originally got to.

I swallowed a crown once. Please don't call me poop tooth.

"No sermons." This is a really good early season one episode and frankly, no spoilers, if this is what the show stayed as it would still be a pretty good weekly sci-fi show. This episode packs a lot of action and twists with good character moments and the moments are often based on two characters bouncing off one another. And the way they used every trick to stretch the budget but deepen the texture of the show is on full display. Such a simple thing to do a lush jungle setting but color tint the background to add a sense of alien to it all. And as a sub plot the stuff between Zhan and the young Tavlek is mature writing all around. And to think... The writing and production values only get better in the near future... I am so happy somebody is doing this series. It's going to get SO amazing. This is gonna get into FIREFLY territory very soon.

I remember that PK Tech girl was one of my favorite episodes. I do not remember if it was one of my favorite of the entire series or just of the season, but I remember the episode all these years later. I DO think it was a little later in the season than this, but 90's TV had a little more freeflow about continuity so it probably could be worse.

This episode was originally episode 4 and the previous episode you watched was episode 5.

I do remember enjoying it, primarily because A) I'm a HUGE sci-fi nut, and B) like you, I've always enjoyed pretty much anything Jim Henson (and company) had a hand in (two of my favorite childhood movies were "Labyrinth" and "The Dark Crystal"). What would the gauntlet have shown of ME? Hmm..... For starters, I am a natural and gregarious smart-a$$. I'm not even sure the gauntlet would cause that to amplify any more than it is naturally already. And, if it DID... OH DEAR GOD!! 😁😝 On the other hand, (I hate to admit it) I have a pent-up internal rage that may take a lot to cause it to bubble to the top, but is ever-present and ever-threatening. Think Bruce Banner of the Avengers; "That's my secret, Captain: I'm ALWAYS angry!" Admittedly, I lack the physical capabilities of our two battle tanks, but it would still not be so good a thing.

This ep does have one of the rare missteps, though, in my opinion. Commando Sun shouldn't have been surprised by the fact that D'Argo's qualta blade had a pulse rifle mode. I'm actually liking Peacock's episode order. It flows well and, so far, I don't think it's introduced any continuity issues.
