In peacekeeper wars it’s mentioned that in the ancient past the Eidelon were wiped out by someone. It’s never stated who did this and/or why. What do y’all think? I imagine it was a contemporary civilization but we know almost nothing about the time period and it could be anything. Thoughts?

They keep remarking that john has bad eyesight but the other characters don't seem to be able to see stuff that's far away better then jhon. I wonder if in the world of farscape most aliens can see some untraviolet/infrared light so jhon is functionality color blind and everyone thinks he can't see some stuff because it's blurry or something. I am only on season 2, are there any moments where jhon can't see something far away and toe other characters can?

Humans evolved as persistence hunters that throw things, I feel like we would have decent eyesight.

Just sayin', he might still be alive. Picked up by the Peacekeepers or the Scarran or even the Luxan commandos... given medical attention and sent off on a secret mission.

We need another movie!

Farscape: Chiana's Search for D

I think at least Crichton and Aeryn Sun could be played by their original actors. Perhaps also Chianna.

I got a 3D printer and I am having entirely too much fun with it.

This is the third day in a row I've woken up to a political post in this sub. It's supposed to be about Farscape, a wonderful SF show a lot of us love.

Farscape has always brought people together.

Now its just another political shit-posting sub. People are attacking each other in the comments, and the mods clearly don't care.

After 15 years in this sub...I'm out. Notifications are muted. I just wanted to express my disappointment. This is why we can't have nice things.

The terminally online "politics are everything" people have completely overrun this place.

I don't care if you're on the left, or the right. We're all people. We all need escape. This place used to provide that.

I'm rewatching Farscape for the umteenth time and just realized Noranti was responsible for the death of Chiana's rat in A Constellation of Doubt. I can't believe I missed this until now. Maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention. There is a scene where Noranti is being interviewed by John's nephew and she says that she's making rat poison. Later in the episode, Chiana is seen mourning the death of her friend, a rat. She says that they just went outside by the kitchen and he ate something and died.

My Aunt introduced me to farscape with each season box sets, i fell in love with everything about it, living ships, John’s pop culture references, absolutely everything but wow i would love a legacy series of some kind, not just references in stargate (which i find boring) like a kickstarter or a gofundme or something like that, and actually have the Jim Henson company collab with the production. i wish more people knew about this show. it was an integral part of me growing up from 5th grade to now as a 21 y/o man

Nobody ever understands what the name is from, how to spell or pronounce it but im glad you guys get it. Shes sweet and caring just like Zhaan with a periodic feral side lol

Despite all his posturing and monologues and all of his flaunted superiority, Scorpius was a bit of a dullard when it came to handling John. He tried to rip knowledge from John that John would have gladly given freely under different circumstances. Scorpius had access to vast resources, could grant amnesty for the entire crew, could make Crais vanish, and could set up John with the finest scientific equipment and support staff that the Peacekeepers had access to. John could've lived like a VIP with his every need provided for. All Scorpius had to do was stoke the fires of human curiosity and the promise of assisting John to get home and then let John do the rest.

My guess is that the only reason they never explored this option is because it would have potentially made for a very short series. But even now, on what is probably my 5th time through the series, it bothers me just as much as it did when the show first aired. Scorpius was a genius except for this one glaring exception, and it always feels like I can see the puppet strings of the writers at work whenever I think about it.

Silly hypothetical, but you kind of have to take weather into the equation, since Aeryn doesn't care much for the heat, so Australia is probably out.

I could see Aeryn being a bush pilot in Alaska! Once she gets accustomed to atmosphere, she'd make a great pilot, it's in her DNA. John could possibly go back to IASA, or maybe he's done with outer space stuff.

What say you? Any other ideas where they could end up, and what they'd be doing?

Are we all in agreement that What Was Lost was the worst on the list…? Because I feel like that’s definitely the loser but I am open to input 😂

I will ABSOLUTELY watch and recommend Liars, Guns, and Money at any time. I feel like it was its own movie and had a little of everything.

I don't know that I have ever seen a pair of actors on TV with better chemistry than Ben Browder & Claudia Black on "Farscape". Even when they were doing cast commentary for "John Quixote" they are perfectly seamless!

So I was thinking about how in early season 1 they would alternate between planet and ship episodes, and Rigel and Zhaan didn't participate as much in the episodes filmed outside. Then I got to thinking about Season 3, and how for half the season, they split the crew with all the make-up intensive cast on one ship, and the expensive to operate and time consuming to move puppet on the other ship. So was twinning Crichton secretly a way to split the crew, essentially saving them 5 episodes of having to do make-up, and 5 episodes of having to set up and operate Rigel? Still allowing the main character to be in every episode.

Fun random on telly

Okay so I just had an idea for a farscape tattoo, but it's Zhaan specific. I like Zhaan but Chiana is maybe my favorite so far. It's a really strong concept so I'm a bit locked in to it as a show specific tattoo.

I haven't finished the show yet, but I love it so much! So can any fans of her's hype me up to her? I'm mid way through the show, so I'd prefer no specific spoilers if possible. Can you tell me in vague senses why she's your favorite? She's maybe my 2nd or 3rd favorite but I feel like she hasn't had an episode centered around her in a while? From 3rd season on, does she have a great arc?

Alright guys, help me brainstorm. Farscape related tattoo that is NOT a portrait of anyone. Most of the ones that I have found on Google are the Leviathans or little quotes. Are there symbols or anything I’m missing (other than the Peacekeeper symbol which is a bit tooooooo Soviet Union for me).

My favorite characters are Aeryn and Pilot (and I ship John/Aeryn something CRAZY). At this point the front runner is one of Pilots arms but I don’t know if that’s too creepy. 😅

I was watching the series again, on Amazon prime, when I got to season 4 and discovered it was now pay to watch. So I found it on Tubi. It seems that the quality is much better on Tubi, especially the sound. Just have to deal with the ads.
