Please get the word out! This may be our last chance to show support for the show in a way that REALLY matters... viewership.

Time to set my TiVo... I missed a few season 4 eps. And the 8pm time slot may help a bit. I'm going to go light and candle and pray.

Reminder for all Farscape supporters to continue to spread the word on the marathon Christmas Eve. Good ratings could help us see just a bit more Farscape!

Here is a quick run-down of those episodes which will be played during the Farscape chain reaction.

1. Crichton Kicks
2. What Was Lost, Part 1: Sacrifice
3. What Was Lost, Part 2: Resurrection
4. Lava's a Many Splendored Thing
5. Promises
6. Natural Election
7. John Quixote
8. I Shrink, Therefore I Am
9. A Prefect Murder
10. Coup by Clam

Sorry folks… but “Kansas” (the conclusion of Unrealized Reality) won’t air until January 10.

Well, there you have it!

Sci-Fi Channel promised 11 hours of Farscape… they deliver 8. Anyone else notice that they chopped episodes 7, 8 and 9 right out of the line-up?

Ah, well. Kind of shows the level of contempt Sci-Fi has for its viewers.

Luckily, I already had the three they cut on tape. But for those who missed 7&8, they were very good eps. John Quixote was directed by Ben Browder and was very entertaining considering it was his first time. And I Shrink, Therefore I Am had the those whole Scorpy/John team up that was great. Oh well. *sigh*

I was able to TiVo Coup by Clam and will watch it this weekend. I missed Natural Election, tho. Doh. I'll have to catch it on DVD....

Overall, 8 eps are better than none even on a day where TV watching isn't high on folks lists (especially the hours they ran it). I'm just disgusted with this whole thing. Between Farscape and Firefly's cancellations things are just bad right now for fans of well written and acted science fiction.

Well, I didn't know about it at the time, but I stumbled across it while flipping channels. Glad I got to see "Unrealized Realities" though it was plenty confusing.
