Farscape is a science fiction television series that was produced for the Sci-Fi Channel from 1999 to 2003.
Plot Description
John Crichton, an astronaut from Earth, enters a wormhole and finds himself thrown to the other end of the galaxy where he meets a bevy of strange creatures -- and, possibly, the love of his life, in the form of a soldier named Aeryn Sun. Caught in the middle of an intergalactic war, John desperately tries to find a way home, while being pursued by armies on both sides of the conflict, who want to learn what secrets he knows about wormholes.
The series is the brainchild of Rockne S. O'Bannon, whose other credits include Alien Nation and Seaquest DSV. The Jim Henson Company was largely responsible for the various alien makeup and prosthetics, and two regular characters - Rygel and Pilot - are entirely Creature Shop creations.
The show originally ended on a cliffhanger, as the series' cancellation occurred too late in production for producers to significantly change anything. However, Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars, a four-hour miniseries, aired on Oct. 17 and 18, 2004, wrapping up most of the loose ends of the series.
