Farscape The Peacekeeper Wars DVD
Created at least in part
due to popular demand, Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars will
provide some closure to fans who were dismayed by the demise of the
popular science
fiction television show in 2003 and campaigned mightily to bring it
back. Indeed, this miniseries (originally broadcast over two nights on
the Sci-Fi Channel) will likely appeal primarily to the Farscape
faithful, as the somewhat convoluted storyline may prove baffling to the
uninitiated.
A brief bit of backstory explains how John Crichton, an astronaut
from Earth, went through a wormhole and ended up on Moya, a living
spaceship, with a motley group of aliens, including D'Argo (Anthony
Simcoe), Chiana (Gigi Edgley), various puppet characters (designed by
the Jim Henson Company), and Aeryn (Claudia Black), Crichton's love
interest, who's expecting their first child. As The Peacekeeper Wars
begins, our heroes find themselves in the middle of a
war-to-end-all-wars between the lizard-like, implacably evil Scarrans
and their rivals, the Peacekeepers. Crichton is the lynchpin in all of
this, as his knowledge of "wormhole technology" is coveted by
all, including his old nemesis Scorpius (Wayne Pygram), who captured and
tortured Crichton back in season 1 and with whom Crichton must now form
an uneasy alliance against the Scarrans.

Farscape The Complete Second Season DVD
The
second season of Farscape expands upon and develops the
characters introduced in the ambitious first
season. John Crichton's new nemesis is the deadly Scorpius,
replacing Crais, who has taken the living ship Moya's offspring on a
voyage into the unknown. Moya's regular crew--Aeryn, Zhaan,
Chiana,
D'Argo and Rygel -- remain as divided and suspicious of each other as
ever, yet somehow manage to pull together at times of crisis. The
writers continue to exploit the show's gift for surprising as well as
emotionally convincing character development, while the CGI effects,
prosthetics and state-of-the-art puppetry--courtesy of Jim Henson's
Creature Shop--continue to make Farscape the most
original-looking sci-fi show on TV. The witty scripts, peppered with
post-modern pop culture references and movie in-jokes, are also a breath
of fresh air. Despite some...
Farscape The Complete Season One DVD
Farscape is genre
television at its most ambitious, inspired both by the cult appeal of Babylon
5 and the continuing success of the Star Trek franchise, but
taking a visual and conceptual leap beyond those shows. Making extensive
use of CGI, prosthetics, and state-of-the-art puppetry, courtesy of Jim
Henson's Creature Shop, the Farscape concept has a freshness that
makes it look and feel completely original. Among the first season's 22
episodes, "Premiere" introduces the characters and the basic
premise: American astronaut John Crichton (Ben Browder) is flung through
a wormhole and comes out in the midst of an interstellar prison escape
on the other side of the universe. When the galactic cops (called
"Peacekeepers") mark him as the new public enemy number one,
Crichton is forced to ally himself with the convicts: hulking warrior
D'Argo (Anthony Simcoe), blue-skinned priest Zhaan (Virginia
Hey),
fugitive peacekeeper Aeryn (Claudia Black), exiled king Rygel
(Jonathan Hardy), and Pilot, the giant insectlike nerve center of their living
ship, Moya.
In the action-packed and stylishly directed "Throne for a
Loss," a race of mercenary criminals called the Tavleks kidnap the
imperious Rygel. "PK Tech Girl" and "That Old Black
Magic" feature a peek into the pasts of Rygel and Zhaan as they
hide from the fleets of Peacekeeper soldiers in the galactic frontier
known as the Uncharted Territories. Leading toward the climax of the
show's first season, "Nerve" and "The Hidden Memory"
make for a bold two-parter that reunites Crichton with his Peacekeeper
Tech girlfriend, Gilina, and introduces the dreaded Scorpius, who uses
his Aurora Chair torture device to extract what he mistakenly believes
is vital knowledge from Crichton. The final episode, "Family
Ties," ends with a cliffhanger guaranteed to bring viewers back for
more, as the duplicitous Rygel plans to turn traitor, which eventually
leaves the fates of Crichton and D'Argo up for grabs and
Moya's young
offspring under the control of the conflicted villain Crais, among other
developments.
