I finished the series (including PK Wars) a week ago and I'm more than satisfied. Farsape is one of those few shows that constantly gets better and better. What is more, the wormhole technology plot never starts to feel tired and that in itself is a remarkable achievement.
I also can't praise the actors and writers enough for creating these wonderful characters, by far some of the best ever featured in a drama series.
I really like the way every character's (well, not everybody's) story was actually finished by the end of it all. D'Argo found his son, confronted his wife's murderer and died a hero. Crichton & Aeryn got together and ended the war between the Scarrens & Peacekeepers, Chiana became less selfish during the course of the show and got over her fear of taking chances (in that regard it really sucks that D'Argo had to die) and even Rygel changed a lot (and once again became the ruler of his people).
And Scorpius....it's hard to sum up how I feel about him. In my opinon he is one of the best characters in fiction (literature, movies, TV - you name it). To call him a "villain" would be too simplistic and quite frankly unfair.
As for PK Wars, it often felt rushed, but everybody involved did a great job (considering they condensed a whole season into 3 hours). I was disappointed with Sikozu's fate (apparently it was Pygram who suggested that she should be the spy, damn him lol). On the other hand, it at least made sense (I assume she became a spy soon after the Scarren-Peacekeeper war started). Jool was utterly wasted, however.
All in all, it was an enjoyable end to the journey and I'll start rewatching Farscape real soon. I thought that I might wait until I get my hands on the DVDs in November, but that's just too long. I can already tell that Farscape is insanely rewatchable. The performances alone are worth it.

I'll definitely keep visiting this thread (and board) as I watch Farscape once again (and apparently again and again haha). I seriously hope that once the DVDs are released (guess what my friends will get this Christmas) more and more people discover the show.
Thats not funny anymore, so I look it on english! And just a side effect, the voices from the german side sounds like teen voices, nothing against teens, but if you have a adult standing infront of something and there is coming a teenvoice out........
How is she with the show until now? Hope she enjoyes it like us? Anyone she like more or hate more?
