Farscape Questions
Well I came to this board before I bought most of the Babylon 5 DVDs, so I thought I'd try the same with this show.
I have a few questions about Farscape...I was going through the search results and looked at a few threads, but I didn't read all of them as I was worried about spoilers.
I have absolutely no idea what Farscape is about, except that it's a sci-fi show and it gets a lot of praise. Therefore I thought I'd try it out now that I'm done with most of my TV shows this summer
I had a few questions though. Nothing big really.
1. Is Farscape very 'episodic' or do the episodes generally move the overall story arc forward?
2. Farscape was cancelled (?), but was it wrapped up nicely at the end?
3. What's this Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars that is coming out. Did the series not end nicely and now this is used to wrap the series up? When is this coming out?
Thanks!

So you don't think there is even a small chance they will spin the miniseries into another season? I doubt it, but I can't say that I'm not hoping.

Farscape was sabotaged, and while many of us thought the ending was perfect, I wouldn't use the phrase "wrapped up nicely." "To be continued ..." is more accurate.

You know, what's with the networks cancelling shows that lots of viewers actually care about? It's like they're intimidated by quality.

I think you will like the show if you give it a try. The tone changes towards the end of season to a darker tone but with some humourous moments.
This is some great Television and hope it comes back if not regularly as another Mini series.

I think we have an answer in Arrested Development: it's a quality show the fans, the critics, and the network loved. Farscape was sorta missing one of the critical three there.
