Just wanted to thank all of you who participate. I know many of you are frustrated and I understand so take a break and re-watch some Farscape 😀

These projects take time. I wish we had a nod from Henson that they are pleased with our work or just a Hi Scapers! I know in the past we never knew how close we were to getting more Farscape until in 2010 Ben mentioned it at a Farscape Con breakfast. It was Sunday and the actors had been told the previous week to have their agents ready as soon as the funds were transferred. They were to get the money at noon on the Friday. The time came and went. The investors changed their minds at the last minute. No news may truly mean no news or it may not. Ben wants more Farscape and feels the time is right. He says Brian Henson also wants more. I tend to trust them. The way series work these days provide many more opportunities for projects and they can also be more complicated to get started. Both Ben Browder and Brian Henson have been in the industry for  3 decades and are quite savvy despite anything you may read on Facebook groups. So until I hear from either the project is dead with no hope of resuscitation I will keep it up. Do what you can when you can! Public groups/sites may get looked at on things like Facebook or Reddit but those making and breaking shows are on Twitter —- Deadline Hollywood for example has gained quite a voice the last few years so give them a shout asking about Farscape. Go to the streaming services and ask them to add Farscape back to their menus.

Sunday nights 7 pm ET/ 1900 London time is the weekly surge.

No news at this point but as encouragement I offer the timeline from the savefarscape campaign which resulted in PKW :

I also want to note the timeline from Farscape‘s cancellation to the airing of The Peacekeeper Wars for those getting depressed about the #farscapenow campaign.

—-Farscape cancelled September 2002

—-The Peacekeeper Wars begins production December 2003

—-Official  announcement that SciFi Channel will air The Peacekeeper Wars May 2004

—-The Peacekeeper Wars airs October 2004

Streaming, social media etc have led to us expecting instantaneous results to all things. Projects like Veronica Mars, Con Man and even the Miss Fisher additional funding seem to happen “overnight”. Veronica Mars had been in the works awhile and the production company was willing to put up an amount if it could be matched. Fans and likely the actors made that happen and exceeded the amount. Same with Con Man — the producers put up money (much of it their own) and again the fan match exceeded. Miss Fisher producers and primary actors met with Netflix US over a year ago to secure funding for a film. The amount offered plus money from other sources would allow them to make a scaled down version of the script. So they took to Kickstarter to fund some additional features. In less than 2 weeks they raised double what was asked. None of these projects had huge internet presence until the project announced. Our goal is to show Farscape worth the investment. I believe Brian Henson interested in pursuing it but that is hearsay from a reliable source. So until we hear the project is officially dead keep doing what you can, when you can.

Official hashtag surge is weekly on Sunday at 7 ET/1900 London. Retweet, reblog on any social media you choose Twitter,tumblr,Instagram and any others! Tag entertainment bloggers or streaming services or networks as many are also investing/producing revivals as well as original programming.
