  • Occasional Randomness #33 - Timey Wimey Stuff And Pirates (Farscape S4E11, Skeleton Crew S1E5-8)
    Feb 24 2025

    First up in our ongoing watch of Farscape -- season 4, episode 11 - Unrealized Reality. Crichton gets sucked down a wormhole and meets another of the mysterious Ancients. This one explains everything you ever wanted to know about wormholes, and some stuff we bet Crichton didn't want to know. We loved all the alternate realities Crichton gets thrown into, which just keep getting more wild and wacky.

    Then we finish the second half of season 1 of Star Wars, Skeleton Crew -- episodes 5-8. We loved the first half of the season and the rest of the season did not disappoint us either. A nice 'coming of age' story set in the Star Wars Universe. And pirates!

  • Occasional Randomness - Farscape Flashback #22 - Chekhov's Halitosis (Farscape S2E21-22)
    Feb 6 2025

    While Jason and I deal with colds, work and other IRL stuff, enjoy our final 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 and we'll see you soon with new episodes!

    Eric and Jason close out season two of Farscape with a pair of episodes reviews and then the season two review, lowlights and highlights.

    First up, Liars, Guns and Money (Part 3): Plan B. Instead of using their newly obtained mercenaries to rescue D’Argo’s son, now they’re off to rescue Crichton from Scorpius’ clutches. But don’t worry, Stark has another foolproof plan… ah, frell that, it’s time for a guns blazing, frontal assault! They manage to rescue Crichton, but at what cost?

    Finally, Die Me, Dichotomy, the (mostly) exciting season two cliffhanger. The crew locates a healer who can both heal Moya and get the neural chip out of Crichton’s head. But the chip isn’t having any of that and does its best to get itself, and Crichton, back to Scorpius. And then some other things happen that we’d like to forget about, before the exciting cliffhanger ending that sets up season three.

  • Occasional Randomness #32 - Witches and Pirates and Kids, Oh My! (Agatha All Along S1E4-6, Skeleton Crew S1E1-4)
    Jan 8 2025

    We're staying inside the Disney+ ecosystem this week. We wrap up season 1 of Agatha All Along, with episodes 7 - 9. Did we think they brought the season home on a good note, ready for whatever comes next? Mostly. Did Jason ever come to like any of the characters? Well... But overall, we did like it and we'll see if anything comes after it to continue where they leave us at the end of the Witches' Road.

    Then we cover the first half of season 1 of the latest live action Star Wars, Skeleton Crew, episodes 1 - 4. This one we're completely invested in. We love the characters, setting and theme. And we get to see Star Wars' version of suburban life. It's definitely your Young Adult series (with pirates!) but has something for every age group. We speculate what the mysterious treasure of At Attin is as well as life based around aptitude tests.
