      Except that Jack never does figure out what Daniel was talking to him about that the beginning of the loop! They had time to put people in Farscape makeup for episode 200, but throughout the rest of the series we never learn what that was.

      The contrast to Teal’c getting the door slammed in his face every cycle.

          Unless Christopher judge himself tells me otherwise, I choose to believe that this exact moment is when Tealc’s loop starts. Too late to move, just early enough to feel the pain.

          That and him just shoving the door back gets me every time

      Not only for the humor and the great puzzle that groundhog day dilemmas always give, but the part at the end where he talks about his son (referencing the movie which I think is the only time?) to convince the guy to give up trying to bring his wife back…that is great writing.

        referencing the movie which I think is the only time?

        He references his son about a dozen times. There was one episode where he was copied by those blue crystals and the copy went home and talked to his exwife about the kid.

        His kid is still a major character event through the first couple seasons, but it falls off by S4.
