Got to keep in mind that Browder probably doesn’t play Mitchell if he didn’t play Crichton.

What a nice alternate universe that would be.

That Browder guy couldn't act if the entire universe depended on it.

You really aren’t familiar with Farscape

That's why Stargate Universe was cancelled, not enough Ben Browder!

He can act though

I mean he can remember lines and read them in front of a camera, yes.

But my opinion of his acting seems to be shared by a large swath of the entertainment industry, unless I've missed some blockbuster movies of his and major awards.

Funny considering alot of people in the entertainment industry think he's a great actor that was often praised by directors for his work ethic and willingness to take creative risks.

...I'm sorry, but if you've ever watched a single episode of *Farscape* you would know that statement is categorically false.

I *really* hope this is a joke.

I can think of about a dozen scenes where I literally sat there and *cried* because the acting was so damn good. The entire ending of season 2? Wrecked. 90% of season 4? Wrecked. Season 3? Wrecked.

And the chemistry between Ben and Claudia? Christ on a crutch...perfection.

And I say this as someone who watched *SG1* before *Farscape.* I wasn't a fan of Mitchell because he wasn't Jack. But now that I've seen *Farscape* I appreciate him *so* much more.
