Farscape Webisode/Series Continuation?

Skippy 2k · July 25 2009, 06:03 AM

I haven't see anything on this in a long while and while I assume if more news had come along it would have been posted by someone...

Anyway what do we know, anything new? Still in the works? Seems like it was back when the strike was going on was when it came about and now that its over still haven't heard anything. With Sci-fi wanting a new (or old...please) space opera I was curious if it could ever come back as a full series?

As far as I know, it's still happening.

And yes, I would also love it if SyFy (ugh) decided to bring Farscape back. I'm not hopeful, but for some reason I'm also not completely dismissing it.

I'd rather them not continue. Farscape told about as many stories as could have been interesting, I thought. And the PKW miniseries was a great ending that brought closure to the program. Very few shows seem to end on the right note, so I'd rather keep the book closed than keep doing shows and eventually have bad memories of how it ended (again).

Here's some info that was posted on the watch Farscape forum about the Farscape panel at comic-con.

Please God, not webisodes. I hate hate hate that format with a passion. I honestly would prefer to have nothing than webisodes.

I always assumed webisodes would be exactly like a regular TV episode, only not shown on screen? Am I wrong in that?

Trubinator · July 26 2009, 10:07 AM

Nope. Webisodes typically only run a few minutes in length. See the BSG ones for example...

OMG, I did not expect that. I've been waiting for that? Aw, hell.

Yeah, they're usually about 8-10 episodes that run a couple minutes long. Together, they might tell a complete story, but in general, they're kinda lame.
