This week TV addicts Schmee and Riker review the pilot episode of the TV series Farscape, “Premiere” (Sci-Fi/Amazon Prime). We discuss the old cheesy intro and judge the pilot in each of our four categories: 1) Genre/Theme - how well did it set expectations for the tone and conventions of the show 2) Characters - how effectively were we introduced to characters and whether they were compelling; 3) Series Plot - how well expectations were set for the series plot and week-to-week episodes to follow and 4) Hook - whether or not it had us coming back for more.
Are Luxans similar to Klingons? Are John Crichton and Peter Quill the same man? If not Earth, where next for our ragtag crew? And did you keep watching the series past this episode?!
