Farscape - The Complete First Season
Hey instead of buying the season box sets or the individual volumes buy the european region 2 pal dvd box set of the entire series! It costs about $200 dollars on amazon uk! Thats less than the first season in the U.S! Hey, I just saved you hundreds of dollars (and without Gieko)!

Season One is Out of Print
rating: 5
Season One is now rare!
ADV Films, the distributor of the Farscape DVDs, has sold the Season One rights to Sony. You can no longer find the Starburst Editions or the box set for the First Season because of this. Do not be fooled because the starting price is $70, this is because they are few and far between.
If you look at the other seasons on Amazon you will see the difference. The Starburst Editions for the other three seasons are only $22.
The best way to see Season One, unless you are willing to pay the elevated price, is to find someone who owns it and borrow their discs.
Farscape is a ground breaking science fiction series that should be seen by all. Even though it was canceled five years ago, there is still a huge fan base that is eager for more. In 2004 a miniseries was created that tied up the cliff hanger at the end of Season Four, but was still not enough. Recently the Sci-Fi Channel has announced the production of Farscape Webisodes, which will continue the story.
Farscape is edgy and inventive. It blows Star Trek and Stargate SG-1 out of the water. It is not only a sci-fi show but a love story, an action-adventure thriller, a horror, and even a mystery. It grabs you and makes you wanting more. It is one of those shows that cannot be seen from the middle or the end but the beginning. Everything is important and every detail will create an impact.
This is one show that should not be over looked.

A series for rich people

I always thought this was a great series on TV and have been looking forward to buying it. HOWEVER, $70 and up for 7 episodes? $180 and up for just ONE season? Forget it.

Goofy but fun
rating: 4
I was skeptical of this show because of the puppets, but I gave it a try because of all the good things I'd heard about it. And when you first see the alien puppets, its hard not to laugh. But the show is a load of campy fun and the character development is deep and fascinating. The show is actually quite sexual and there is a lot of action and in fact my one complaint is that there's too much action. The crew seems to bounce from one life threatening event to another and we rarely see how they are making any money or buying food/fuel. Firefly was much better in this regard where the crew was constantly looking for work. I highly recommend this series to anyone remotely interested in Sci-Fi or even plain old romance.

Much Better
rating: 5
I adore this show and strongly suggest buying the Starburst Editions as opposed to dropping about $200 on the full seasons. The Starburst Edition way is far more cost effective. Especially for poor college students like myself.
