It's the return everyone's been frelling waiting for! SCIFI.COM has ordered a 10-part webisode series based on the multi-award-winning Farscape, the fan and critical darling that has been widely recognized as one of the greatest sci-fi series in television history. Executive produced by Brian Henson and Robert Halmi, Jr., and produced by The Jim Henson Company, in association with RHI Entertainment, the series will revive and expand the beloved Farscape universe.

It's either the best "sci-fi" show ever, or a fairly good science-fiction show. It's right on that borderline between "sci-fi" (or escapist space adventure) and science-fiction (SF). It does have a great attitude to it.

I suppose this will be on DVD too...
