Totally agree with you on the BBC showing stuff at 6pm which just shouldn't be aired - however Farscape was cut for the 6pm slot as I discovered when Sci Fi started to show it. And they muck about with schedules so often its annoying - hence the reason I got cable put in. And for every good show on Sci fi channel over here there are another ten that are truly awful. I know they showed Firefly over(which I will be forever grateful) here but they were responsible for cancelling Farscape - on a cliff hanger no less!! Which they are at least now putting right.

You farscapers need to go get a room.
As far as me not really liking Farscape.. maybe its an age thing. How old are you people that love Farscape?

We got a room - you're the one Peeping Tomming

I'd agree Farscape is an acquired taste; one for those with a finer palette perhaps, but its proper adult science fiction and it aims high - means it falls down sometimes, but I'd rather see a show take risks than not.

that's a real good explanation. it's adult SciFi aiming for the stars and sometimes even hitting them but then sometimes not. and the best thing about it is we scapers can't even agree when it hit and when it failed. it's just at the egde all the time and personal taste decides the hit and miss. it's taking more chances than any other SciFi show. sometimes it's too much for me and sometimes it's too much for someone else but it's never boring and all the same again.

and to answer the age thing: I'm 28

Heck, I've said before following the arc is tough enough for a fan at points, but when people suggest its just muppets in space, I point them in the direction of the Two Crichtons arc - an extended "twin" episode which left the lead characters permanently changed and was intensely emotional.

Besides, any show in which every character has at least six different names is fine by me

Couple of links to some pictures - now I'm really excited; the gangs all back (Sikozu's new 'do - whoa.) Warning, here be potential pitcure spoilers:

Fear not, FS fashion remains distinctly of the leather persuasion.
