 Great Value for the total series... March 12, 2010
Anthony J. Bruno (Sinking Spring, PA USA)
I am a big fan of the tv series Farscape, but when the show was released on DVD it was in various episode sets and then in full seasons...it was very expensive. We all have heard about the enormous production costs to make the show, but it seemed like the powers that be wanted to make those costs back on the DVD sales. But Amazon was selling the whole series, all 4 seasons, for $59.99! That was an opportunity I could not pass. (I think it currently lists for $74.99, still a bargain)
Once I received the set, I could not wait to watch some of my favorite episodes. I am not one to really care about the packaging, but it comes in its own set box and 5 DVDs...one for each season and one disk of special features.
I won't go into details about the picture or sound...others have written reviews much better than I could concerning that. I will say that the picture and audio are outstanding.
If you are a fan of the series or are interested in seeing what everyone has been talking about, this is the set to buy.
Great Set but beware the packaging! March 8, 2010
Keith M. Kitchen (Montgomery, PA USA)
I first discovered "Farscape" shortly after the beginnings of its first season and have been hooked ever since. My biggest gripe over the years has been how expensive the previous incarnations of the "Farscape" DVDs have been...til now! This set includes the entire four seasons in beautiful prints at what is now a very affordable price.
However; be warned! The DVDs are set in their holders so tightly that if you are not careful when removing them, you may break them. This happened to me. In all the years I've been collecting both CDs and DVDs, I have never broken a disc...until now. I actually had to replace the (Season One) set to replace one disc. I'm not laying blame at anyone's feet, but just be careful when removing these discs.
Also, don't expect to find "Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars" in this package. The rights to the mini-series are owned by a separate company, so you'll have to buy the mini-series separately, but it's worth every penny as well.
great sci-fi March 8, 2010
R. Speck (Canton, GA)
I started watching Farscape somewhere in the middle so I was anxious to go back and see it from the beginning. I loved the show - much more to it than the usual science fiction fare. Very funny but lots of action and very meaningful stories. The price was half of what it usually is so I couldn't pass it up.
Excellent March 8, 2010

I can't add much more to what has already been said. The production values are off the charts, and the work of the creature shop is magnificent. It also helps that so many of the main characters are memorable and that the acting is generally top notch.
I am not sure if this has been mentioned before, but this set does not include the "Peacekeeper Wars" finale. It's still well worth the money, however.
Awesome series! March 8, 2010
Matt Sherman (Cedar Rapids, IA USA)
I remember this series back when it was first airing on SciFi. It was part of my daily ritual: Go to class, get home, watch Farscape and Lexx, then homework. Several years later, it's part of my new ritual: Go to work, get home, watch Farscape and reminisce.
The acting is top notch and the characters are very engaging. Watching the first season has really helped me understand where certain characters from later seasons came from and what their motivations were.
Jim Henson Productions turned out some very interesting puppet designs and work. Rygel is easily my favorite character, both because of his puppet work and because of his personality.
Cannot recommend this enough to people. If you like Science Fiction, you'll enjoy Farscape.
