Amazon.com: It's clear right from the opening episodes of its third season that Farscape has finally developed into a grown-up show. There's a new self-confidence and a new maturity here that's entirely welcome after the often wildly erratic tone of the second season. The production design and high-quality effects work remain true to the show's original quirky style, although both the look and the more adult-themed scripts have become progressively darker.
Season 3 is the year when the Wormhole story arc takes precedence, as the interactions between John Crichton and his nemesis Scorpius become ever more complicated (involving various different clones, real or "neural", of both antagonists). It's also the year that some major characters die, new ones are introduced, and Crichton (well, one version of him anyway) and Aeryn finally consummate their relationship. Moya's crew endures a vertiginous emotional roller-coaster ride when powerful issues of love, loyalty, and sacrifice loom large. They must also face their sternest challenge yet as the series' biggest story arc reaches an explosive climax aboard Scorpius's Command Carrier. Anyone who has not followed Farscape extremely closely from the very beginning of season 1 will be utterly baffled by the convoluted plotting and complex character interactions. But for fans, this is the show's most rewarding year. --Mark Walker

Farscape season 4 Item arrived in great condition. This completes my series. I have bought all 4 through Amazon.
Truly enjoyable For those of you who enjoy Farscape, this season was very well thought out, planned, and executed. Each episode keeps you wanting to see the next one, not because they end them with a cliff hanger, but rather because the story is so well told. Follow the story of Commander Chrichton, a human who was shot through a worm hole to a distant part of the galaxy and meet both old and new characters, as well as say farewell to a couple that we've known and enjoyed watching in this series. Personally one my my absolute all time favorite series ever!
Antidisestablishmentarianism If you don't like seasons one and two, you must like horses.
10/4 <----- The Last of the Really Great Wombats.
Far above many SF series Characters you can care about (even if some WERE created by the Henson Co.), witty scripts, great SFX and music, plus a cheeky Australian sense of humor -- these ingredients melded to make "Farscape" one of the best SF TV shows ever. True, the first season was a little uneven at times, but "Farscape" quickly hit its stride, and kept raising the bar throughout its 4 seasons. When it was unceremoniously dumped by the SciFi Channel, throngs of fans deluged the cable channel with feedback until a mini-series ender ("Peacekeeper Wars") was produced and aired. And the fascination continues -- SciFi.com has contracted for a series (appearing in 2008?) of "webisodes" of the series! In addition, "Farscape" has spawned a Parsec Award-winning podcast (Scapecast) that's enjoyed by fans all over the globe -- not to mention the myriad of websites fondly devoted to the show.
Yes, the 3rd season is great, but start at the beginning -- share the wonder.
Love FARSCAPE! I really like Farscape, so all I can say about it is positive. The characters are superb, the plots are good, and the humour is welcomed!
Really like the romance between Aeryn and Chricton, because it's not typical, and loved Chiana becauzse she is so cheeky! ;)
