Each main villian has a personal motivation to hunt down and deal with the crew.After three years in the Uncharted Territories, the crew has to maintain a low profile becuase they are legendary. ("And some planets are laughing at us because we can't deal with one ship of criminals!")The writers are not afraid to use John's use of pop culture and related attitude to add some spice and levity to the show. ("So who's Commadant Clevage?", "You are so screwed grasshopper.")The writers seem to always be able to ratchet up the pressure on some characters. (I was framed for the murder of my wife, now I find out my son is alive and a slave, now my g/f is cheats on me with my son ...) <--- That did happen over three season mind you.In an interesteing backstage twist the voice for the most subservant character in the show was done by the same actor who played the villian for the first two seasons.Farscape is just different than anything else out there.</blockquote>
