this is something I've been trying to put in words since literally my first watch of farscape and I am still unsteady on it so whatever I'll just post and see if anyone else can explain it better than me.

farscape is a show that cares a LOT about perception of reality. it's a show that spends a lot of time and stories exploring the way that events are perceived, interpreted, and understood. but I don't know what it has to SAY about that or if it has anything to say at all.

#i have a lot of examples.#the translator microbes i think are the first instance of someone's perception being altered.#the crash between tauvo and crichton. is it murder or a forgettable accident?#i e.t. crichton realizes that HE is being perceived as an alien #back and back and back to the future john is having visions or are they hallucinations or is it reality?#tgifa the whole EPISODE is about this.#thats just the first few episodes.#so much. What is reality? How do you KNOW who you are talking to? Can you trust your own senses?#DO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN BY ALL THIS??#i guess the reason its sticking out so much to me is . my ongoing quest to understand my own perception of reality.#guy who experiences paranoia and hallucinations and delusions watching tv: getting a lot of paranoia and delusions vibes...
