    But only for 4 hours. But hey! beggers can't be choosers, eh? This from scifi.com:

    SCI FI announced it will be bringing back Farscape with an all-new miniseries — called Farscape: Peacekeeper War — slated to air in the fourth quarter of this year. The four-hour miniseries picks up where the cliffhanger series finale left off and will reunite John Crichton (Ben Browder), Aeryn Sun (Claudia Black) and the rest of the Moya crew.

    Farscape creator Rockne O'Bannon and executive producer David Kemper wrote the miniseries, which was directed by Brian Henson. "Peacekeeper War" was produced by the Jim Henson Company and Hallmark Entertainment, and executive produced by Robert Halmi Jr.

    SCI FI will make the official announcement at noon on Monday, April 5, during the channel's advertising sales "upfront" presentation.



    That's your lot, but here's a link

    Yay!!! :clap:

    I have never seen it, but I've heard so much about it, maybe I'll give it a try. From the small bits I've seen, it looks a little cheesy, but there seems to be such a huge fanbase, there's got to be something to it.

    Yeh, it was always a little cheesy in places, but all the best sci-fi succeeds by not taking itself seriously at all times.
    Give it a chance, but be prepared to be absolutely besotted :)

    I've got an idea

    Spoiler (highlight to read)

    They weren't disintegrated, but teleported somewhere.


    End Spoiler

    Holy thread revival

    Looks like it's not that far away - the sci-fi magazines in WH Smiths are full of it Aren looks well preggo as well...

    Lets all hope it continues in the trippy \ comical styleee.

    The episode where it all turned into a looney tunes style cartoon was mad - can't remember which series though

    SciFi was promoing it up the arse last Friday during the 2-hour Stargate season opener. Guess that Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars will premier on Sunday Oct 17th..
