Farscape Complete Season DVD sets question

What's with the order of episodes (I know they were sold separately as well, but I have the complete sets of the first two seasons)? The episodes on the discs appear to be in production order rather than original broadcast order, especially the first half of season 1. What's the preferred viewing order, then? Is there a Farscape site as comprehensive as the Lurker's Guide for B5 that could answer these pressing questions? Thanks.

Great episode guides and reviews.

I know on a few discs -- one in the middle of Season 2 and at the end of season 2 -- they fit 2/3 episodes on one disc and then the episode before and after that 2/3 ep. set are on the second disc - kinda weird so be careful.

Aside from that, the dvd order is the real story order and it works really well.

Season 1 was released on October 29, 2002
Season 2 was released on October 28, 2003

..so I'll guess
Season 3 - October 26, 2004
Season 4 - October 25, 2005

Although I do hope ADV gets off their butts and releases them quicker.

I've been getting the individual releases. Only 2 to go!
Plus the mini series will air towards the end of the year: The Peacekeeper War.

Looks like the Season 3 set will be released August 24th. Glad to see it's earlier than my October prediction.

It's ADV!!!!!! But then again the complete season sets of Andromeda go for only $45 or so on DeepDiscount when each individual volume was selling for $24 on DeepDiscount.

The best way to get these...

is on e-bay. I got a complete set (legit) of season three and all the discs up to the last released of season four for $140. And you can't beat that!
