I prefer these peaceful leviathans over the ones that are basically organic reapers from mass effect
Would you agree
*The darkness cannot be breached!*
Spacedock The LEXX would be a nice companion to this video.
Spacedock "anyone can give a machine intelligence, we gave them souls" one of the builders to zan.
the biomechinoids of the farscape universe are amazing creations, each with their own personalities and desires, the show did a good job(humanizing) these alien creations and moya was just as important to the show as any other character.
the leviathins where as sensitive as they where intelligent with a gentleness that matched, as the show progressed the crew became more and more protective of, not just moya, all leviathins seeking to free them when they could.
moya was the most special of all the builders creations, her genetics had been tweeked by the peace keepers allowing her to give birth to hybrid gunships, when the builders discover this they decided to decommision moya, and only change their minds because they see how fiercly the crew would fight to protect moya from those who would exploit her, to the point where they would willingly sacrifice themselves to moya, that is the depth of their love and respect for her and the only reason the pilot never threw them off. to quote pilot "we are at our best when we are serving others" and that right there sums up the psychology of the leviathins, they exist to serve others and if you dont betray that trust then they follow you to the ends of the universe itself.
Hello, can you make a clip about the species 8472 ships ( Star Trek)?
Farscape had the most interesting take on biomechanoids imo. Leviathans aren't just machines with biological components. They're people, with emotions, desires, morals and goals just like any other race, even if they can't convey them via the same means as others. Moya was as much a central character of the show as John or Aeryn, and that's something I haven't seen anywhere else in sci-fi or fantasy.
Well, the main character ship is often treated as a character of its own in shows like this, but it's true that having it actually be one is quite rare, and even then it's usually something more like an AI who can theoretically survive the ship's destruction rather than the ship itself being alive.
Just watched this so, kind of late to the party. Farscape will always have a place in my heart.
As others have already said, Talyn had far too short a life. Console yourselves with the knowledge that Crais gave him a warriors death. "Talyn, starburst!" That final line always gives me chills.
Ditto, I'm just getting here myself. Enjoying the series so far (SpaceDock that is) Farscape hasbeen one of my Fav's since it first came out. I was one of the ones that was left screaming at my TV when they ended the fourth season the way they did.
Farscape was a frelling awesome show!
Hezmana yes!
wish they continued it
Noom The story has did continue in comic book form.
Why? May be for that 1 more season which was clearly intended, but otherwise - the story is closed and ended in fairly honorable fashion. The fact that Farscape does end and its storylines are closed is one thing which makes it really great.
Stories should have their endings, preferably endings which are thought up in advance. When they don't, they just became to be mess sooner or later - and when they do and they are stretched over their endings, it just becomes really weird and usually shitty (StarGate SG-1, s08+, Babylon 5, s 05...)
if i remembered correctly i believe they had to cancel it since there was a fire in a warehouse that stored the props
Moya FTW!! , id love a more of farscape like Talyn , command carriers or dreadnoughts!
Farscape had really cool ship designs
Underrated show when creativity was valued.
There is One frelling exception to the Leviathans don't have guns thing. He died too young.
R.I.P Talon
But he died Roman
Ode for Talon - son of Moya.
Talyn was kind of a insane. He even scared Crais... Crais who was kind of a psycho himself.
Summary: Space Whale piloted by an Australian Mushroom.
Max Jenner seems legit
The BEST kind!
Kiwi mushroom
I'm thinking crab.
You know..... I've often wondered if they if could understand earth whale songs.

woo..hoo. It's Moya!!! thank you for bringing my favorite tv show of all time to your channel. What is the biggest movie today...Guardians of the Galaxy. James Gunn the director himself even said that inspiration for the Guardians family theme was inspired by Farscape. So can I get a HELL YEAH??!!!
HELL YEAH!!!!!!!
Hell yeah
Hell-frelling YEAH! Farscape forever!!!
Ah always loved the concept of a bio-mechanical ship, thanks SpaceDock was waiting for this for a long time. Was hoping you would include Tayln as he is a unique entry in the series.
Did anyone else get a big old nerd chubby when Ben Browder showed up in GotG2? Great to see him in Cpt Larraq mode again, but this time .... in GOLD!
uh, I took in a huge loud breath. Like I knew he was in it, and I knew I'd see him but then when I did it was still a shock LOL.
I miss Farscape. Always loved the show
That's one of the best SciFi shows I've ever watched.
This video excited me so much more as I love Farscape, but I was disappointed you didn't mention the most notable example - Moya
I absolutely love that you know the difference between Sentient and Sapient and use it in your videos. Like and Sub right there!
Imagine Farscape with 2021 CGI. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Gorgeous!!! Wish a remake of this remarkable SciFy serie.
Awesome! So glad you did the Leviathan! And such a tragic story too.
No mention of Moya or Talyn specifically though. :(
Does that mean their Own episode one day? Farscape has some great ships
Thank you for doing Farscape!
From somebody who's seen this series about a dozen times, you did an awesomely thorough job here. Bravo!
Love Farscape and seeing Moya front and center on my feed was awesome.
Next video, now you have covered Farscape.
The command carrier Zelbinion (spelling) and her pretty interesting story.
I got to watch this show all over again!
One of the best original Sci-Fi shows !!
Farscape is the best show ever made!!!!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Such a great birthday gift!
Who thumbs down a video about space wales. 🐋
So far, three Sebastian Peacekeepers.
Crimson Fucker space jellyfish, they came for farpoint. (stng)
Tim Trowerz haha lol
The Japanese
I don't why but it's like your voice was made for these kind of videos. I have no idea what farscape is and I was STILL excited to watch this video
This is simply good quality nerd stuff I never knew I wanted. Well done, well done!
How is this channel so thoroughly enjoyable?
Speaking of living spaceships how about an episode on Ryo Ohki?
Such a nice ship. Love the show, charicters and cast.
please........more stuff on this series
I love farescape :)
YEY! Farscape! :D
Finally, I was beginning to wonder if you were ever going to cover Farscape.
MOYA!!! Thank You Very Much Good Sir!!!
You should do a segment on Talyn, the only gunship leviathan
Next: Command Carriers?
Do Andromeda Ascendent
She was a bad a$$
Farscape = Dope AF
Was my favorite show. Damn Sci-Fi for killing it early. Damn fine show at the time.
Blame Stargate SG-1 as well. It came down to a decision from SciFi (or was it already SyFy at that point?) between whether to fund Stargate or Farscape, and they picked Stargate.
Subsequently, Stargate cannibalized Ben Browder and Claudia Black from Farscape for their last two seasons, plus a few movies. And, ironically, their characters kind of traded places, with Browder playing the military person and Black playing the smartass alien goofball.
Thank you for doing farscape!
I noticed you used the logo in your intro when I first found your channel then scoured your videos and couldn't find any on it. Will you be doing more like peacekeeper or scarran ships?
under rated show
Awesome video!
Absolutely love Farscape I've been a fan since it first started crust me when I took it off the air Moana is the bomb and Talon is a beast you need to do one on Talon
All of your videos are fantastic! I think a video about the Andromeda Ascendant would be an awesome addition :)
In the comics leviathans also serve as fighter platforms in a limited capacity. Another offensive ability of the leviathan is ramming other ships, since they're living ships they heal damage over time. And as they grow according to the needs of the crew it could also possibly grow tougher hull for ramming.
This video reminded me to keep watching this show
Ah, my favorite TV show ever gets some much-needed love. Leviathans are such magnificent creatures, though I'm not sure I'd want to live on a ship that can get high and have allergic reactions.
iv been waiting for this. thank you good sir.
so basically, they're like Tin Man from Star Trek TNG
yup
Actually, the TNG episode was based on story called Tin Woodman by David Bischoff published in 1979.
FARSCAPE YES
That spaceship is basically a living car/hospital/weapon.
Another great vid.
Here's an option for you to check.
Larsen v Larsen
70s BSG ships v Buck Rogers ships.
Man i miss Farscape
Starburst = gap drive.
If you don't know, then you've missed out on one of the best Sci fi /Sci fant book series.
Moya is the most beautiful ship in science fiction. Farscape is the best series in sci-fi...or at least in my opinion it is.
I'd love that see one on Crichton's module.
This was great! More please!
You said they can be equipped with defense screens... however that was basically unique to moya, in the same way one "can" equip a leviathan with guns, by slapping it to the hull or something, these components however are not normal integrated bionechanoid systems, they are just devices made by others, hooked into the ship.
I liked this summary..
Would love to see a video on the tiger claw carrier from wing commander.
Which version though, since the design of ships between Wing Commaner games can vary wildly
The one from the movie, this one was probably the most well known.
*HISSSSSSSSSSSSS* We do NOT speak that that... That... ABOMINATION!!!
that movie is a guilty pleasure of mine and has an awesome soundtrack
Yeah but, hairless Kilrathii, Freddy Prince Jr, Angel going from French to English and Paladin from Scottish to French, Blair having super powers and the Kilrathii being so blisteringly stupid that they fly right into a black hole, thinking its the Terran fleet, when you can litterally see the thing they are flying into from millions of miles away.
Any chance of a spotlight on Talyn the only Leviathan with weapons capability
I couldn't click this fast enough.
Ben Rollman SPACESHIP!!!!!!!!😂😂😂😂
Such a great show
maybe one of my favourite spaceships
keep the videos coming man!
Please tell me your going to do one of these on Moya's child? That would be very cool!
Love your videos can you do the peace keeper command carrier
FYI Moya is a swahili word meaning 1 in the number scale. Not sure that was the inspiration for her naming but I would like to think it was.
My favourite ship of all time
I love how you read this as tho factual. I loved farscape and have a theory that if it can be imagined for screen then it can be imagined into reality. I do believe humans have built space ships, not the rockets that go to the space station and mars ect. Yet huge ships that traverse our galaxy. I so wish EBEs would interact. The public is more than ready. The dam world powers will not allow it tho, not in my lifetime at least, maybe in the lifetime of my grandchildren.
Daniel, did you do this because of my suggestion? This was an awesome episode!
More Farscape, pls
The Best Damn Space Whales Ever!!!! You did the ISA Victory-Class Destroyer with equal awesomeness. Can we get a Systems Commonwealth Heritage-Class Heavy Cruiser?
A friend did a Wold-Newton where in it was them that sent the probe in Star Trek 4, LOL. I told it can't work because this vid seems to suggest that Leviathans of Farscape have only around for, what, a few thousand years.
Later on, do one on Talyn.
Emperor Sleestak, you big upright iguana, what's it look like from the Death Star?
I'm... actually kinda surprised you didn't mention the Leviathan Gunship class as a sebacean influenced variant of the leviathan. am also intrigued that i don't see any other farscape ships in your playlist.... at least lex isn't in there
9 dislikes. . . Must be Scarrans
Now do Talyn the Peacekeeper-Leviathan Hybrid Gunship
Sweet!
I remember watching this when I was very young but I can’t remember much wasn’t the ship called moia-or moya...: who was the little floating guy? That was just rude AF to everyone who was the blue lady?
Rigel and Zann respectfully
+SpaceDock can you do the cylon Surtur, cylon Hel, and the Advanced Hel (a more capable and stronger hel a hel mkII if you will) cylon Malefactor Type 1, cylon War Raider.
The Spelljammer would make an interesting topic for video
"Blah blah blah blah blah, listen Pilot! I don't care about all this techno-babble! What happened to the girls this week?!"
I think this would be an interesting topic: Samus' Gunship from the Metroid series.
starjump i think was random or randomish but had infinite range kinda thing (i think)
What about the Andromeda show? Good video.👍
The design totally looks like the Interdictor-class Sith Destroyer....with the most famous beeing darth malaks flagship...the leviathan
Aussie sci-fi @ its BEST!
Would be cool to have a video about Talon, he was bad assed.
I've been looking for information on the Leviathan and Farscape.
Never clicked so fast in my life
When are we getting the Command Carrier from Farscape?
Do a video on The Destiny from Stargate Universe please.
Always been curious about the leviathan's star burst. I mean how much distance does it cover? The peace keepers don't have star burst yet they seem to be everywhere.
you should do one about talon
how about the Milano from Guardians of the Galaxy?
