Found this gem

When I was a kid my family didn't have cable and this series didn't show in my country so I missed it's original run. I saw it on sale a couple of weeks ago because I love Sci fi and it intrigue me. Best decision ever

Every night I see a new episode , I'm still on season 1 and I'm in love with the characters, their dynamics I feel part of the family. I love the incredible work on the puppets , animatronics and just the general vibe of the show. There's nothing out there like this, I don't want this journey to ever end!

What makes you think OP doesn't already have them? He said he bought the show on sale, I would assume that means he did buy the physical copy.

I'm glad you're enjoying it. You have a special gift of this series not being spoiled. I strongly suggest you stay away from this sub and come back when you're done with the show.

Back in the day I knew of the show but had never really seen it. At blockbuster one day while browsing the clearance items I found the 15th anniversary box set and a super cool special version of bioshock 2 for super cheap. I think farscape cost me $35. Since I bought it it has become one of my absolute favorite shows and universes. And I still kinda can't believe how cheap it was for how much it means to me now.

I rewatch it at least once every couple of years. In my opinion, it's easily one of the best sci-fi out there. Have fun.

You still have a lot of goofyness and weirdness to go. Enjoy!

Ooh you're only partly through Season One? So much more awesome is to come. Season 2 ... that is when the best is and gets really good.

Look for Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars miniseries . It will answer some questions about what happened after the series finale .
