SIX WEEKS TO SEASON THREE: A FARSCAPE PRIMER


With 44 episodes under its belt, Farscape has proven to be one of the most fearless and original sci-fi series ever. If the season two cliffhanger [ DIE ME, DICHOTOMY ] finale has left you breathless and wanting more, there's good news: the new season begins March 16.

Until then, SCI FI and series executive producer David Kemper have charted a course of six essential episodes that will prepare new viewers and hard-core Scapers alike for the twists and turns to come. Our exclusive six-week crash course (or as we like to call it, "Journey To The Center of John Crichton's Brain") will allow you to introduce Farscape to any of your friends who have yet to discover the show, and will provide veteran Farscape-watchers with some subtle hints about where the series is headed.

Every Friday morning from now through March 9, visit SCIFI.COM for background on that night's encore presentation -- including observations from Farscape creator Rockne S. O'Bannon and character-by-character analysis from Kemper. Then call your friends and prepare to watch episodes that introduce key characters (such as Scorpius), crucial plot points (the "chip") and underlying themes (like the "shippy" stuff) that every Farscape viewer needs to know.

We promise that if you read and watch each and every week, you'll "get your mind on right" in time for episode 301, "Season of Death."
