'Destiny'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
On the downside: Ben Browder now less likely to give up on Hollywood (or Vancouver) in disgust and return to hometown for career in local theatre.
It's unclear that any of the old actors will be in this one. It says that the new webisodes will be based on the original series.
Didn't the producer once vow that the series would continue, even if it was animated or something?

I doubt they'll have the budget to bring back the original cast, but the Adventures of Young D'Argo Sun Crichton could be a lot of fun.
Cindy! Are you watching Born Under a Bad Sign tonight? Because you really, really should be.
TiVo grabbed it,and we were going to watch it, but when we saw the previouslies, we decided we should finish our catching up before going forward any more. We're done through "No Exit," now (2.06 -- where Jo tags along and gets kidnapped by the ectoplasm demon. Stay-Puft Man. Ha.) We started watching "Usual Suspects," but I fell asleep. We only have that one and "Crossroad Blues," to watch, before we are all caught up and can move onto "Born Under a Bad Sign."
Didn't the producer once vow that the series would continue, even if it was animated or something?
Well, that was before the mini, where they swore they'd finish the story using shadow-theater on a streetcorner if necessary. Since then, Brian Henson merely said that he'd like to keep telling stories in that universe, but didn't know what form it would take.
Frankly, I'm not sure the business model for webisodes is all that strong, but trust Henson to make an attempt.
I'm actually more excited about Ben getting a new project, one he himself has a creative role in. I hope it's good...
TDF:
Juliebird! I saw that announcement at the Butcher Board! I'm glad at least one person interpreted it the way I did: that they're not likely to make a separate announcement for cancellation. There's hope yet.

You know, I was all sanguine about it at first, "we had some great episodes, if I survived losing Firefly, yada yada," but the longer this goes on without knowing, the more I want it back. Does that make any sense?
more Farscape news towards the bottom of this article. looks like some of the original cast will appear. *crosses fingers for Ben and Claudia*
I bet it'll be easier to get the Aussie actors that, well, haven't done anything since Farscape wrapped. But it was a huge labor of love for everyone involved, so hopefully Claudia and Ben will at least show up in cameos to wave at the fans.
Farscape! Although how much enthusiasm can I reasonably invest for something that may be only ten minutes long and potentially not have the characters I loved involved?
Zenkitty, I totally get the "not having it, potentially never having it again" increasing the want-factor. This waiting and constantly checking for news is just keeping it fresh, especially now that there's some kind of news to be anticipating before the month is out.

Did anyone catch Supergator?
Apparently Bianca Lawson (Kendra) was in that movie.
