It is imperative to the fandome of sci-fi t.v. for the renewing or restoring of this & other intellectually inclined series. Keep 'em comin' Rockne & Sci-fi channel! Smart men, make Smarter moves. It's never too late for a GREAT move. As we are undergoing changes, (on our shows) we can embark on changing certatin habits, to fit the needs for our sci-fi desires. Challenges that we face can sharpen us. But, the result of our capabilities & efforts will abandon our own wants. If decision making from other resources leads us astray. Finding our own limits & capabilities, create smarter choices with less wasted thinking. Benefiting, everyone who stems from the accomplishments that we persue, endevour & dare to overcome as well as acheive. Quoted by ME.

Great post, I must say. You really put a lot of thought into it. I do agree, we need more quality Science Fiction shows along the lines of Farscape. Sadly though, with the moves Sci-Fi Channel has been making lately, we may need another station to start airing them. Sci-Fi, IMO, is heading down a very dark road. One that many Science Fiction fans may not want to head down (what's with all the wrestling??). I fear for any good show that appears on that channel in the future.

You know something I was thinking of the other day? I would have loved, if the show had gone on longer, if we'd seen an episode dealing with Pilot when he wasn't joined with Moya yet. Yes, I know we saw him on his homeworld in Season 2's "The Way We Weren't" briefly, but I would have liked an ep dealing with him in his past. Just a thought.

That was my initial reaction.....I especially HATED the theme music, but now I LOVE it.....it's a show where you need to see several episodes to really get it.....personally I'm addicted now.

[Spacegirlnz]

That's unfortunately true. Still, I think we still could get another mini-series someday. Stranger things have happened.

*waves* hi!

Stranger things... Including Serenity...

Well, I watched the first 2 season of Farscape when they were on. Then I don't think it was ever on after that. Today, however, I hired the first season . So guess what I'm watching :cam: I love the theme msic. Even the music reminds me how much I liked it!

Welcome to the madness! How many episodes have you seen so far?

[Trek_Girl42]

Welcome to the madness! How many episodes have you seen so far?

I've seen eighteen episodes (sixteen from season one, two from season two)- some of them twice.
I'd have to say my favourites so far are "Back and Back and Back to the Future", "They've Got a Secret", "The Flax", and "A Human Reaction". I love that music that they played at the end of "A Human Reaction", so pretty.

[Psi-fi/Steph]

Welcome to 'Scaperverse'! Prepare yourself for thrills and spills...pain and gain....action and attraction! This sought-after Australian blend of comedy/sci-fi/drama/action, ingages the 'utmost itellect' with it's flavorful mix of Great CGI, Spectacular costumes and Superp stroylines. Adrift....Crichton searches for his way home...in 'Technicolor'. Along the way...somoning emotions, that bring him to the brink of insanity will he go wayword? Plagued by the half cebation /half scaren hybrid knawing through his swiss cheese brain, (Scorpious). Tortured, spent, and always on the edge of a nervous breakdown. John hides, scavenges, stoops to new lows, and brings to life an ecstasy of radiant humanesk sensuality, mental acutacy and heartfelt level-headedness to the 'Uncharted Territories'. Bringing a 'Peace' to the 'Caos'.The Microbes have translated... Welcome New Fellow Farscaper. And Kalenal!

Initially, that's the reaction a lot of people have. Watch a few more at least. Trust me, Farscape has a way of realing growing on you. It was a very different type of Science Fiction show. Very original IMO on how it was done. That's part of what I loved so much about it.

Ah, "The Flax" was my personal favorite from Season One (aside from Family Ties). Maybe it was the whole Aeryn/John/Death factor in all of it, I dunno.

Trust me, once you watch "Family Ties", you'll wonder why in the frelling world this show got cancelled.

Ooh, can't wait! I'll probably get a hold of that last disc in a couple weeks.

I'm thinking of spamming my library to get seasons three and four.

Spam your library to get Starburst Edition (btw, are you watching season 1 & 2 Starburst Edition or the first release?). The additional extras, especially episode commentaries are just frelling brilliant.

Nope, not the Starburst edition (actually, I think they might have two different editions of the eps.....but it doesn't say whether they're Starburst of not, might try requesting the other one to see)- hopefully one day I'll get my hands on those.

The other sets seem to have only two eps each- are these the Starbursts, or could it just be a larger set in which all of the individual discs were split up? There's not much info- they haven't been processed into the system yet.

[Psi-fi/Steph]

I enjoy watching (1st seasons'):1) "Throne for a loss" 2) "Rhapsody in Blue" 3) "Thank God it's Friday...Again."4)"The Flax" 5) "Jeremiah Crichton" 6)" Human Reaction" 7) "Through the looking glass" 8)"A Bug's Life"9) "The Nerve" 10)" Hidden Memory" 11) "Bone to be wild"



*********Pilot, as well as the other characters could have done with their own episodes. Unwinding each history of their origins as well as, species and personal interests (Planetary, family, derivinations etc.).
