I think it was awesome overall. Having seen all episodes in a matter of several weeks (about 6), I got a real feel for the characters, and especially the character archs. I really feel for most of the characters, both good and bad. It was wonderful to see the battle hardened Aeryn turn into a person that prefers peace and John doing almost the exact opposite from an "always talk first" person to "I have to destroy them to have peace".
Loved the humor, the emotions, the way that bad guys turn good and vice versa, the unorthodox way that stories are told.
Personal highlights (for various reasons): "Thank God it's Friday. Again.", "PK Tech Girl", "Crackers Don't Matter", "The Way We Weren't", "The Locket", "Die Me, Dichotomy", "Self Inflicted Wounds", "Thanks for Sharing", "Incubator", "Infinite Possibilities", "Into the Lion's Den", "Lava's a Many Splendored Thing", "John Quixote", "A Constellation of Doubt", "Prayer" and the complete "Peacekeeper Wars"
One thing I don't understand: when did Sikozu turn spy? Before season 4? (As in "She was sent to Moya to attach herself to Crichton" ) During season 4? Between the end of Season 4 and the beginning of the PW (60 cycles later)? During PW?
Before season 4 doesn't make sense when she almost kills the Scarran emperor Staleek in "We're so screwed". During season 4 has the same problem, but with the added problem of when she was away from the crew long enough to be turned ("Bringing home the Beacon?". In the interim between Season 4 finale and the beginning of PW she was on board a PK command carrier and I thought there was no time at all for her to be turned during the PW. What did I miss?
Oh yeah, and D'Argo's death got to me more for some reason when it was offhandedly mentioned on board Moya and Pilot recoils in shock, then when he was left behind on the planet with a crying Chiana. Strange how that works. It's like in real life you don't really "feel" or "understand" the loss of someone until you have had some time to process it and then see the reaction of others.
Not all questions were answered at the end of Farscape, in true Farscape fashion. The story goes on, even though we don't see it.
Goodbye John, Aeryn, D'Argo, Zhaan, Rygel, Chiana, Pilot, etc, etc, etc. It's been a wonderful time.

The mystery deepens... I think. *MySmiley*

The story does go on, actually.

Was there any followup on the webseries that was announced in 2007?
