...But I've already watched some of Peacekeeper Wars! I already know John and Aeryn get together!
Dude. There are so much more interesting things than whether or not John and Aeryn get together!
Granted, my intense dislike of all things J/A may be colouring my perspective somewhat....
Seriously, though: trust me when I say that spoiling yourself will greatly lessen the viewing experience. There are so many twists and turns in this series, and they really lose their impact if you're spoiled for them. :(
The first couple of seasons were shown in Australia out of order, censored to all hell, and way behind the rest of the world (which made no sense, because we made the frigging show *sigh*), and it seriously took a lot of joy out of the viewing experience, for me. The story builds and builds upon itself, and watching it out of order is no fun.
At the very least, go watch the final four eps of the first season (Nerve, The Hidden Memory, Bone to be Wild, and Family Ties... holy crap, can't believe I still remember that) before you watch anything else. It's the changeover point from oldschool FS to later FS, and it introduces some major characters and story arcs.
(Oldschool FS: Kind of your traditional monster-of-the-week SF, although the building blocks for the later arc-related stuff were obviously being put in place. Later FS: More arc-oriented, space opera-type fare. I love them both.)
I apologise if I'm coming across as annoying or pushy, but seriously, it is so much better without spoilers. Please say you'll watch it in order? For me? *pleading eyes*
