Interview  |  Ricky Manning
Crackers do matter

PictureWhat one scene do you think sums up what Farscape was all about?

I suppose you could probably pick a ton of scenes, but probably the one that jumps to mind is Crackers Don't Matter, practically any scene from there. Particularly the notion.

The thing that Farscape did best, I don't know that we ever came up with an original idea, but we certainly came up with ways to turn that idea on its head. Every show does the body swapping. Original Star Trek did the body swapping episode. There have been movies about body swapping, sitcoms about body swapping. Everybody, but everybody, does the body swapping episode.

I don't know that very many shows have done it with six body swaps going on, with six people exchanging. Then trying to keep track of all of them. And then, in true Farscape fashion, the scene that really makes it Farscape is three-quarters of the way through when we nail them again, and they all swap a second time.

That to me is Farscape pushing the idea right over the cliff edge and into the sea.
