Customer Reviews of Farscape Season 1, Vol. 7 - The Flax/Jeremiah Crichton

A Must Have For Fans of the Show
It's wonderful that this excellent television series is being released to video and DVD. After all, it should be viewed in order, and those who miss the episodes on TV can catch up this way. As with all the Farscape, these two episodes continue to show the growth and change among the various characters. My only objection is that the U.S. is releasing the DVDs more slowly than the British, who have almost concluded Season Two in their DVD offerings. Patience is *not* one of my virtues! Also, when it comes to the "extras" packaged with the DVDs, I know fans of television shows would love to see previews, ad spots, missing scenes, and...perhaps most importantly...BLOOPERS! Thus far, most of the DVD available today lack these elements, although the Farscape disks are packed with other goodies to keep the fans entertained long after the initial episodes conclude.

Enjoyed this Very Much!
I really enjoyed these two episodes.I liked ''The Flax'' so much better on this dvd then I did when it was on tv.The story had more focus of Aeryn and John in this I thought.Plus, we meet Staantz who is actually a female of his species and is being hunted by his kind.Rygel is fun in this one he plays a game that they point of it is you have to bluff it is great! plus John and Aeryn reach a new point in their relationship.''Jeremiah Crichton'' I thought was a okay episode it isn't one of the best of Farscape that is for sure.After viewing the second time I thought that this story wa sprety mediocre.John bascially gets frustrated with the crew and flys off in his module when Moya is dealing with her pregancy and starbursts away and John thinks his crewmates have abandoned him,but they look for him the next 3 months.Then find him on a island where their is no energy so anyome who comes to this planet is stuck.D'Argo and Rygel go down to retrieve him too.John doesn't want to go back but other circumstances ensue and then John does return.It is funny when the islanders start to worship Rygel.Overall I thought that episode needed some work.But if you are a Big Farscape fan(like me) you should definetly purchase this and add it to your collection.

Farscape in Dolby Digital 5.1 Rocks!
It goes without saying that anyone who has purchased or is considering purchasing a Farscape DVD knows that Farscape is one of the best Sci Fi shows that's ever been on TV. That said, this isn't so much a review of these particular two episodes, but of Farscape on DVD (and it's soundtracks) as a whole. I'm surprised at the number of people complainng about a lack of extras on these discs. I love extras more than anyone, and getting to hear the actors talk about the individual episodes is a real treat, however what I like more than production notes or commentary tracks is Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtracks. This is THE golden extra on ALL of the Farscape discs as far as I'm concerned. The sound mix on these shows is aggressive! Kudos to the producers for choosing to go with 5.1 rather than just 2.0. Since it's not been mentioned on any of the other reviews I've read here so far I'll assume that those reviews were written by people who are not set up for 5.1. There's no question that on a weekly basis Farscape dazzles us with it's storylines, it's acting, it's make up, it's coustumes, and it's special and visual FX but if you've not heard Crichton shoot through that wormhole in full 5.1 digital surround sound you're really missing out. If you love Farscape these DVDs are fantastic. If you love Farscape and you're set up for Dolby Digital 5.1 these DVDs will blow you through the wall.
