You are all just obstacles on my path to Nirvana.
If Star Wars and The Muppets had had a baby, its name would be Farscape.


Has anyone ever seen this show? I was a fan of it during its run on TV, and picked up the DVDs when they came out. Of course, its been 10 years and I've long since sold those old DVDs.


Luckily, I happened across all four seasons at Walmart last weekend (I hate Walmart, but they have some good deals on awesome TV shows: Deadwood, Rome, Farscape, all for $15 or less per season...yes please!).



I love this show. Great and zany characters, decent writing that only matures as the show goes on (while still balancing the inherent craziness of the show), and just a lot of original and fresh approaches to the sci-fi genre in general.
 
nope, never heard of it.

I did like when Luke Skywalker was on the muppet show though!

I loved Farscape so hard. I have the complete series on DVD. Hell, I drew Chiana recently.

Has it really been that long since it was on the air......(checks IMDB......damn, 1999-2003)

you can't hate on Wally World, i was gonna pick up the Lethal Weapon 4 pack the other day for $10.

side note: speaking of old shows, I just finished out all 4 seasons of Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman (1993-1997), back when Teri Hatcher was hot..........

back to Farscape.....did you watch the movie? Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars
 
nope, never heard of it.

*sigh*

Its hard to judge just which one is better.

Its pure awesome in a bottle.

And Gigi Edgley is one hot little Nebari. Actually, most of the women on the show are beautiful.

I can definitely hate on Walmart. Its corporate bloat at its worst: large corporation putting small business OUT OF business and shipping jobs overseas (90% of Walmart products are made overseas); unhappy, poorly trained employees offering mainly frustration and confusion to customers; etc.

Walmart is a perfect example of whats gone wrong with corporate America in the past 30 years. When you ship jobs overseas to save yourself money, you also shoot yourself in the foot in both the short and long term by no longer providing manufacturing jobs within the country the majority of your stores and customers are.

But thats another point entirely.

That said, Walmart has been raining thunder in terms of great deals of DVDs. I can't argue that you can get a great TV show or movie for a good price.

back to Farscape.....did you watch the movie? Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars

I did when it first came out, back in 2004 or 2005. Once I've watched through Seasons 1-4 I'll definitly check that out. I'm also looking forward to checking out the new comics by Boom Studios, which basically act as a Season 5. They pick up after Peacekeeper Wars and continue the adventures of Moya and crew. They've also done a series of minis focusing on D'Argo (taking place during Season 3 of the show) and Scorpius (taking place concurrently with the Farscape ongoing comic series).

Which episode was that from? I remember the scene, just can't remember the context of it. I'm finishing up Season 1 tonight and hopefully will start Season 2 as well, so either way I'll answer my own question soon enough.


Have you checked out any of the comics by Boom!? I'm just wondering if they're any good, and how well they compare and hold up to the show.
