The BBC has posted an interview with "Juliet Blake, the President of US Televison at the Jim Henson Company, and an executive producer of Farscape." You can read about it here (http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/farscape/interviews/julietblake/index.shtml).

This excerpt I found particularly encouraging (emphasis mine):

That’s not to say that Farscape is entirely dead, we’re planning to continue the franchise but in different ways. So what we’d like to do is a movie, either a TV movie [or a cinema release] at some point. We get calls all the time from – I can’t go into any of the names – but from billionaires and some large corporations who are saying ‘You can’t let it die, what are you doing? What can we do to help?’ which is great.

It ain't over 'til it's over, and FarScape, much like Scorpius, always comes back! :D

Oooh, millionaires... that ought to be fun. :D

Speaking of Scorpy, I have a Harvey-like image of what Farscape could have been running around inside my head. Imagine having the entire cast talking to you all the time...

Why are you all looking at me like that?
