 "An overlooked outer space adventure" | 2010-02-04 |
| - Reviewed By Crip from Murfreesboro, TN |
| This is a terrific space drama, shows interactions with many different species of creatures, and their similarities, one being obviously close to human. Friendship turning into a family like atmosphere on a living ship passing through the galaxy being chased by a military group that has been given the job of keeping peace in the galaxy but is on the verge of an impending war with another race who cares little for peace, or getting along with any other species. Every planet has the same fear, with the impending war, who's side to be on, and how to survive invasion. |

| No need for praising Farscape. That's been done by people far better at expressing themselves than me. This collection has perfect video and audio and is exactly what I hoped for. |

Awesome! Got hooked on it and just kept getting better each season. Such a travesty Sci-Fi cut this series short. There is something better than this out there, season 4! Each season continued to improve. Great chemistry between the characters. Well thought out and written. Awesome sense of humor. It was like watching a feature-film in each episode with great integration of special effects, music, everything very well done.
As far as DVD value, OK. Not a huge amount of bonus features if that's why you buy DVD, but each DVD comes with some content and behind the scenes info. Great series. Definite must buy. Get Scaped! |

 "Farscape Finally Comes Into Its Own" | 2009-09-06 |
| - Reviewed By Bryan A. Pfleeger from Metairie, Louisiana United States |
In the third season Farscape finally came into its own as one of the better science fiction shows on television. Farscape was a show that was based more on character development than epic action and the third season finally began to connect all of the plot lines that had been developing in the first two seasons together.
Characters die and are reborn, the wormhole technology experiments are finally explained, a major character is twinned. If all of this sounds farfetched it is but oddly enough it works to keep the audience interested throughout. If there is a problem with Farscape its that its plotlines were too complex for thecasual viewer to pickup if any of the episodes had been missed.
The standard definition set presents all 22 episodes in fullframe format with a wealth of bonus materials. There are commentaries on selected episodes, trivia, series previews and the continuing alien encounters that premiered in season 2. If you are a fan this is well worth the price. |

| "Better and better, I hate the SCI-FI channel now!!!!" | 2009-02-01 |

So, why if i say better and better do I now all of a sudden hate the Sci-Fi channel, well because after wrapping up season 3 (probably the greatest single season of any show ever) I can not see how cost alone would possibly have this show cancelled. Obviously this show was not cheap to produce, but with knowledge of releases to DVD seasons (which by 2004 were becomming more and more popular) you would likely have movie deals, and advertisng rights on that alone could have made gobs of money. Well enough ranting let me tell you about sseson 3.
\
I earlier called this season the greatest, and let me explain why, the show at this point has built a tension between the characters (most notably John and Aeryn, this one is tangible, and at the end of season 2, John is mildly responsible (at least in his head) for Aeryn's death. I am a guy and most of the times do not go for the overly romantic story arc's shows ride. But in Season 3, I am rooting for them, really pulling that somehow it will all work, and for a while it does...kinda. They have 2 John's not a cloned John, but literally 2, same thoughts backrounds, lives, feelings, and the sequences on board Talyn are some of the most emotionally gripping Television, movie, book, story, etc ever in history. Your heart is grabbed by them and then smashed and destroyed by the end. This season does more than tell a story, amd invite you for a ride. It grabs you from the first episode and pulls you on board Moya and Talyn.
So you think this season is just the John and Aeryn show, not even close. The stories behind Crais, Scorpious, the loss of a character, the addition of others. D'Argo, and Chiana. This season is mind numbingly good. I feel get a few people with financial backing to watch this season, and you could have had many more seasons, movies, and so on.
Maybe its a dream, and as we hear from another new character (not all dreams are realized) but there has to be a way. Funding from bake sales, collections from fans, studios, Henson, there has to be something to give us one more shot. I know it's not likely to happen, but at least I still have season 4 and PK wars to go. go to Watchfarscape.com...voice an opinion... |
