With the long weekend I got some rewatching done. I was going to write about it, but I'm tired.
However, having just watched Durka Returns, I've got some Chiana love.
I'm so glad they introduced her. I like her anarchic spirit. I really can't imagine her not being part of the crew. Young, rebellious, and otherworldly. A little heroic and a lot selfish--she's fun.
I also wonder whether Farscape has the highest ratio of female to male characters? (I suppose that depends on whether Buffy counts as sci-fi or urban fantasy. BSG had a number of women, but it was also a fairly large cast). Farscape had a small cast that still featured Aeryn, Zhaan, Chiana, Sikozou, Noranti, and Jool (plus Grayza and a female Scarran as a Big Bads).
And of course 'the radiant Aeryn Sun...'
