News > Farscape Returns in Webisode Form

July 25, 2007

Producers for the defunct science fiction show Farscape have been working on creating some webisodes for launch on Scifi.com. Executive producer Brian Henson told TVGuide that there are a dozen episodes being planned and that while the scripts have yet to be written, three to six minute installments are to be expected. 
 
Henson also hopes and expects that a few of the series regulars will return to fill their roles, but no deals have been signed. The character D'Argo Sun-Crichton, the son of the two main characters of the original series, will likely be featured. Henson ultimately hopes that the webisodes will generate enough interest to lead to a sequel of sorts. 
 
I don't know if three to six minutes is enough time to regenerate interest in something. But then again, R. Kelly's Trapped in the Closet couldn't have been more than that, and I know I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for the new chapters.
