Only the one episode of Farscape this time around as we're waiting for the next Marvel or Star Wars shows to premiere. This time, Farscape season 4, episode 6 - Natural Election. Aeryn and Crichton are about to have "the talk" about Aeryn's baby but just as they start Moya is rocked by a collision and explosions. Seems she's covered in some kind of space plant that begins digesting her. The crew rush to get rid of the plant before Moya is destroyed, with their new bestest buddy Scorpius even lending a hand. All this and also the crew picks a captain, with some surprising votes being cast.

We continue our trip through the final season of Farscape with season 4, episode 5 - Promises. The crew finally are reunited (and it feels so good) with Moya, Pilot and Aeryn. And a not-so-welcome new addition to our crew. But Aeryn's not feeling all that well and the person who made her that way drops by for some revenge.

Then we finish our review and discussion of the last half of season 1 of Star Wars: The Acolyte with episodes 5 - 8. We liked the series overall, giving it 7 out of 8 stars (one episode really didn't go over well with us). We absolutely loved the intricate and wild lightsaber battles in these episodes. And loved speculating about the nature of Jedi vs. Sith, the Rule of Two and our creepy lurker buddy Darth Plagueis.

Episode #25! Not that we planned anything for this milestone, but we do have a larger than normal sized episode this time around. First up, Farscape season 4, episode 4 - Lava's a Many Splendored Thing. Still no sign of Aeryn (maybe next time). The crew lands on a barren planet covered in, you guessed it, lava, in search of food. Unfortunately things go about as well as you'd expect and they get trapped by a group of thieves whom Noranti mistakes as friendly freedom fighters. Cue the hijinks!

And then after Farscape, we recap and discuss the first four episodes of the latest Star Wars live action show on Disney+, The Acolyte. Despite the Internet kerfuffle and review bombing of the early episodes, we both liked it. We have some ideas on what might have been a more interesting premise for the main antagonist(s), but overall, we like the mystery they've set up so far. And one of us has some wild theories who the dark master behind things could be.
