Farscape/Awesome: Difference between revisions

Examples:

 

** *sniff* But also, Crichton killing a Dreadnought by basically throwing the heart of a star at it. Also brilliant because {{spoiler|it was a really, really moving [[Heroic Sacrifice]], that somehow wasn't cheapened by the fact that there was a duplicate. Those chimes as Aeryn wept over him...*shiver*}}

*** Also, anything and everything Crichton did in the series-ending "We're So Screwed" trilogy. After walking into Scarran high-command with a thermo-nuclear bomb strapped and [[Dead-Man Switch|attuned to his body and vital signs]], and giving an inspirational speech about being an all-American sellout while walking on top of the conference table, {{spoiler|getting away with nuking the place}} was just an encore.

{{quote| '''Crichton:''' You've been lying to your daddy, boy, and you know you shouldn't lie to your daddy. It's gonna stop. Who's your daddy? C'mon, you know who your daddy is. Who's your daddy? D'Argo, tell him who his daddy is.<br />

'''D'Argo:''' I'm your daddy. }}

* A crowning moment of ''acting'' surely has to be Season 2's "Out of Their Minds". Everyone in the regular cast except Virginia Hey gets to play someone else, and they all nail it. From [[Ben Browder]] and his hilarious Rygel voice, [[Claudia Black]] completely shedding her Aussie accent for Aeryn-as-Crichton, Lani Tupu imitates D'Argo's rougher voice and speech patterns to a T, Gigi Edgely completely shifts gears for Pilot-as-Chiana, Anthony Simcoe's hilarious attempts to be seductive as Chiana-as-D'Argo, and even Jonathan Hardy gets in on the fun by switching up his vocal performance for Aeryn-as-Rygel. And then they switch *again* at the climax, and once more everyone hits it out of the park. It's a hilarious episode already, but add in the phenomenal comic acting and it's easily a series highlight for this troper.
