"After more than a decade, Farscape is coming back in what is likely to be a TV movie. The film would follow John and Aeryn's son, D'Argo. Because their baby was exhibiting a set of interesting powers that made him a magnet for galactic villains, we find that John and Aeryn hide their son on Earth to grow up. Now the kid is 19 and ready to go into space with his parents."

  Much as I enjoyed it and appreciated the studio for letting the producers wrap up the series after the fans got vocal (first time that had ever happened, IIRC), "Peacekeeper Wars" was also one of the saddest things on TV for me. It was so clearly supposed to be a whole series run of ~20 episodes that had been squeezed down into the four parts of the mini-series/TV movie. Every time I watch it I can't help but wonder how much better it could have been, and how badly they compromised the whole from being one of the greatest scifi series produced.

  You saw the arc story. A full season would have been full of filler episodes about food cubes.
