"Defiance" - tv series/game

[Bromptonboy]

Looks like they added a character similar to 'Head Baltar' and 'Head - Caprica 6'...

To be fair, BSG wasn't the first to use that concept. The invisible companion was seen far earlier in Farscape and if Rockne is copying anyone, it's himself.

Thanks - didn't know that - I never watched Farscape (he says in shame)...

In comparison though I don't ever see those two characters in Defiance being as awesome and enjoyable to watch as Crichton and Harvey. Harvey brought so much to Farscape and to Crichton and Scorpius as characters.

Harvey was awesome... and named after Harvey, the giant invisible rabbit that probably was one of the first invisible friends of some note.

My comment was not a reflection on the show, more my interest at the time. :)

I know how that can be.  Farscape does take a little time to get into it, but once you are in, it will be a wonderful ride.

Tell your wife it's an epic love story with a very strong female cast. She might make sure you find the time. Oh and there are lots of homages to Trek.

There's a lot of homage to just about everything geeky.

I say with Farscape make it to the end of Season 1 and you will be hooked. The last few episodes of season 1 is really when it gets good, and it only gets better into season 2 and beyond.

I'm still hanging on with Defiance. As the other guys said, it's not 'amazing' but it's not put me off either. I'll certainly give it the first series to see where it goes and the possibility that O'Bannon pulls off another Farscape with this is not completely impossible. We'll see what happens.

(For some reason, it's skipping a week over here. Is that due to US scheduling?)
