Farscape

They have begun showing some Farscape previews on SciFi Channel. For the four weeks in January, the station will air the four-part season finale for last season (much like Babylon 5, SFC can't seem to get its timing right--they always begin a new year by showing us the End of a season). None of these episodes has aired before. It looks like the finale will focus on the fate of Dargo's son. Scopius and Crais both figure in the plot.

When is Farscape on? I just have not been able to find it since it was on every night for one week.

New Farscape episodes will begin airing Fridays at 9 p.m. Eastern starting January 5. SCF will also have a few weekends dedicated to showing old episodes for folks who need to catch up on what happened.

So season 3 is about to end? Typical...I get interested in a show 2-3 years after it begins and have to scramble to catch up! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif

Here in the UK

We are up to episode "Liars, Guns and Money" 2 of 3, as of next Monday.... Can anyone tell me how far behind the US we are?

Heh...don't ask me...I don't even know what episode we are on now. http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/redface.gif

But I DO know someone who can tell you! The Wizard of Iz! http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/wink.gif

Gang,

I was lurking around that site that Iznbardy had mentioned and found this really good fanfiction area. You should read some:

For Cosmic and Ian:

Cosmic, January is the Season Finale of Season #2 and the opening of Season #3. So you actually haven't missed that much. Most of the story arc that matters for current episodes took place in Season Two (introduction of Scorpius, MLee the Boneater, and the Scarrans, Crais taking off with Talyn, revelations about the past of Dargo, Aeryn, and Chianna). The most important storylines from Season One will probably by (1) Crichton's meeting with the wormhole aliens (2) the Nebari's destruction of a Peacekeeper super-star cruiser (3) various, no doubt recurring villains, like Durka, the Peacekeeper leader who captured and tortured Rygel.

Ian--the journey logs on the official page make no mention of any episodes with that title. So I have no idea where you are in the sequence. If it is a three-part episode, I am assuming you are somewhere in "Look at the Princess"--where Crichton is betrothed to an heir of a Peacekeeper out-planet. In that case, you are about seven episodes behind the U.S. schedule.

Or maybe you are ahead of us.

actually, ian's question raises an interesting point. most of the farscape episode titles are meant to be puns on popular sayings or phrases. since many of the puns based on american phrases would not make sense in england, maybe the producers are changing the episode titles depending on where the episode is showing.
