Farscape (
1999 .
2003) is
science fiction television series, featuring a present-day
astronaut who accidentally travels through a
wormhole to a distant part of the galaxy. The series is one of a new generation of popular science fiction television shows in which the main concerns are surviving in a hostile, chaotic universe and dealing with interpersonal conflicts - instead of exploration, warfare or law enforcement. It is produced by
the Jim Henson Company and
Hallmark Entertainment, and filmed in
Australia. Drawing on the Henson's traditional expertise in puppetry (he was the creator of the
Muppets), two of the main characters are animatronic puppets.
The show was abruptly cancelled after it had completed production of its fourth season, with a fifth season contracted, effectively ending the series on a cliffhanger. A mini-series in 2004 wrapped up some hanging plot threads, and a feature film remains a possibility.
