The show is instantly recognizable as a Henson production, yes. I thought it was a remake of that "Amazing Stories-esque" show they produced back in the 80s when I first saw it. Now that was good TV.

Amazing Stories was Must Watch TV back in the day.
They had the best opening title sequence ever, too. Long have I wanted to get an .avi of that and have it start when I fire up the 'puter. (just once or twice. After that it would be boring.)

Well, yes, but it lacked a certain crazy weirdness that the Henson show had. The magic sack! That's all I remember clearly, but it was a magic sack!

Hm... I wonder if this means they're more or less likely to start rerunning the show from the beginning again, so that I can start fucking watching it?!

Could be, but it'd have to be an extremely high-level one. I don't think the cast and crew of Farscape would actually lie to the fans, so they, at least, think it's real.

Notice how much they're singing 'Scape's praises... and the use of superlatives from TV Guide and USA Today.
God, I hate TV executives...

Try "Six Feet Under".
I love "Farscape", but I don't think I would care much for an anime version. I am hopeing someone picks up the show, but Anthony Simcoe said yesterday that the sets were already coming down and Pilot was already "in a box".
