Silly little side story, but the Farscape actors have all said at one point or another that if they were confused about how something in the script would actually work, then they'd just wait to see how the fans would figure it out on the forums. That was a series that assumed intelligence in their fans (after they saw the reactions over the internet) and didn't fall into the trap of dumb writing too often.
Intolerant monkey.
