I am so happy to see this! Of course i will pass this along to several people who had not even known of Farscapes' existance until the midnight reruns (from which I am currently experiencing withdrawal).

They promote Stargate (which is good, but if I had to choose I would opt for Farscape) as a sci-fi channel original series. -Ahem- didn't it start on showtime or independents like channel 5 in NYC?

If they promoted Farscape as much as they promote Tremors (stick with the original movie), it would still be on! I would be willing to subscribe to a ppv showing of Farscape. I had been thinking maybe a channel which actually backs its really good programming, like HBO, could take it under its wing as one of the revolving miniseries (Sopranos, Sex and the City, The Wire, etc). Of course I would be really happy to see it back as a regular weekly series. At the final moments of the series ending episode, I just stepped off my nordic track, stood, and stared at the screen in scock and disbelief. Then when I found out that was it, no more, I was stunned!

Perhaps the network executives are playing it safe, seeing as how the Sci-Fi channel is on the market (from Vivendi to ? But Knightrider? Pfft! Personally, I am hoping for Viacom (although it would be nice to see the Universal Star Trek sequels, like the much underrated Deep Space Nine. Hopefully they would also yank STNG from TNN. All the action figures promoting other shows which run on top of the show have made it unwatchable).

Dish network? I don't have that - I have Time Warner Cable, NYC. Who would show it here?

Anyway, I am thrilled to hear that there may be a chance to bring back Farscape! Yayyyyy and go for it!
