Saw the preview for Farscape #24...

...and I realized I'm hoping Chiana dies.  Which would be sad, but not nearly as sad as her free will and dignity being stripped away, her having literally no choice in who she has sex with (isn't that called rape?), her being suddenly, slavishly devoted to Nebari ideals, and no one giving a shit or thinking this might be odd, or of some concern.  

Alive she will continue to be used and abused and alternately ignored and maligned.  Dead she will be a free spirit, with Zhaan, D'Argo, Jool, and Sikozu for company.

Huh.  Maybe her death at this point wouldn't be sad at all.

I love this post! It goes along with the "more than the sum of its parts" feeling...and so much of Farscape's genius was due to retroactive continuity and making the most of unforeseen changes, and flying by the seat of their pants.

So many people had a part in it - you can't reduce the number to one and expect the same kind of magic (I'd feel the same way if it were Kemper in charge of the comics).

I love books and movies and comics but good serial television is hard to beat when it all comes together.
