grow up in the late 60 and 70 i could not help but become a fan of science fiction . with america space program in top gear and sci fi book and movie and tv show and and comic book fuel my imagination and open my mind to the possibility that exist in the universe . farscape be so unlike any other sci fi show yet it have all the ingredient that make show like star trek and battlestar gallatica and x file and and deep space nine personal favorite . one of the criticism of farscape be that the casual viewer can not just jump in and watch one episode and understand what be go on . there have be other very successful show that use multiple episode story arc and complicate character . this for me be one of the charm of the show . i do not need or want to have the story all tie up neatly at the end of every episode like the various incarnation of star trek have do . all in all and farscape have wonderful and funny character and a running storyline that say that although human may be the least evolved or advanced intelligent specie in the universe and they still have unique quality and ability . unfortunately and the shortsighted people at the sci fi channel have cancel farscape 5th season . they have state that the cancellation be base on sag rating . yet just a few year ago it be their top rat original series and a critical favorite . it a shame that all of the artist who help create this show will be unable to continue their labor of love because of the fiscal problem of the very channel or company that make it all possible in the first place . hey and do not take my word for it and watch the show and watch the re run and make up your own mind . help save farscape .
