News from TVGuide.com about Farscape

[HP1]

I haven't seen this news on a thread, so I thought I'd post it.

From TV Guide at http://www.tvguide.com/news/entertainment/

"FAR OUT!: Hey, 'Scapers — this is the news you've been waiting for! The Jim Henson Company is holding a press conference Thursday to "announce an exciting new development in the campaign to continue Farscape." Among those participating in the media pow-wow: Series creator Rockne S. O'Bannon and exec producers Brian Henson and David Kemper. They better not be unveiling the 2003 Farscape Christmas ornament."

It will be interesting to see what this press conference is about.

:bigwave: Welcome to the fold HP1 :violin: :banana: :crazydanc :band: you have no doubt by now discovered that resistance is futile ... you will be assimilated! :signlol: Now there are those who will have you believe that there is something wrong :bonk: with being a Scaper. But I assure you :bballbat: that this is totally unfounded. Okay granted, we can be a little weird :nana: ... at times :flower: which may scare :horror: non-Scapers but we really are a wonderful :signtroll bunch :multi: of creative :idea: people with fun personalities :wingnut:. If that's not enough to convince you remember ... :duck: missed me ... :nana: frell! :tonbricks lurking here is way cheaper than therapy! :harvey:

[PrairieScaper]

Wow! This news was added since I checked out that TVGuide column for Nov. 12th just this morning! :cool:

Well, now I'm really really sad that I won't be able to make it to Burbank... :(

Edited to add: Welcome, HP1! Thanks for the post.

I especially like the last sentence .... I hope it's what we want to hear and not that.

[generic_screenname]

Holy-crap-on-a-stick! The only thing that could possibly top this is if as the press conference is being held, elsewhere in the world Bonnie Hammer is crushed by a falling house.

Between you and stellar I'm going to wind up wearing a truss yet.

[generic_screenname]

I think me and stellar combined aren't even half as funny as the image of you in a truss, DB!

[HP1]

I don't think TG Guide would have put the news on its website if the information was not credible. I'm glad my first post may be good news.

[divinedaydreams]

I want to know where and when! Are we getting this up on the main page?

[Digger]

The only thing that could possibly top this is if as the press conference is being held, elsewhere in the world Bonnie Hammer is crushed by a falling house. Yeah, but according to the Dark Horizons rumour posted earlier skiffy may be involved. What if Bonnie is at the Press Conference? The house might hit Brian, Rockne and DK.

[Kerrigan]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

O.K., we need to target that house JUST right!

Or maybe use something smaller? I think an Outhouse would be appropirate, myself.

[Mickie]

Guys, lets not sully this joyous moment with all this Bonnie talk :D

[buggabboo]

ehem.

and moving right alog. *g*

here's hoping more information will make it's way here sooner rather than later.

[Mike@Pilots Chamber]

HP1 - VERY nice find! Glad it's your first post as well!

I agree with you - TVGuide is very highly regarded, so if they're posting this...

That said, I am not going to get my hopes up.

Well, maybe a little...

And it's tomorrow! Isn't Burbank starting tomorrow, or at least the Jay Leno thing? Anyway, if this IS true, the people at Burbank are gonna have one hezmana of a party!

But then so are the rest of us...

Anyone up for a Farscape marathon?

[mfa96]

Welcome HP1, and thanks for the great news!!!

:joy: :joy: :thumbs: :party: :stomp: :stomp: :party: :thumbs: :joy: :joy:

:colors: :colors: :colors: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Just wondering if it's a coincidence your name is HP...as in Henson Productions? Just a thought- maybe a reach:grabbounc: but fun to think about- though not as much fun as thinking about the press conference. Wonder where it is and what time????

[Dominar of Action]

Why, Frell. Me. Dead. :thud:

I personally like how Henson apparently worded the press release:"... an exciting new development in the campaign to continue Farscape." So, let's say the rumors are true and a mini-series or movie is announced to wrap up the cliffhanger ... this wording suggests to me that we're right to expect that this is only the beginning. :D

[Mike@Pilots Chamber]

He's the lawyer! HE'S THE LAWYER!!!

[kechara420]

:thud: I ... can't ... breathe ... breathe ... gasp ... :thud:

Seriously, I doubt that Brian, David and Rockne would *all* get together sor something as simple as "we're still committed to Farscape, keep up the good work." It *has* to be good, right? Right?!?

Lordie, I'm not gonna get ANY sleep tonight ... and I'd sell my soul to be at Burbank after this announcement!!! Crap!! I have got to figure out who I can sell so I can afford a plane ticket ... maybe someone will shell out a couple hundred bucks for my brother ... or one of my co-workers ...

From your mouth to God's ears, g_s!! Just give me a spew warning next time, huh? My boss isn't going to like having to replace keyboards every other week ...

[divinedaydreams]

Should we ask Matt?

ASK MATT!

[Tiriel]

We're trying to find out more details and see if DocuDot can get a camera-team there :)

I think posting a little clip of Brian Henson announcing that there will be more Farscape would be one of the highlights of my life...right up there with tearing down the wall seperating East and West Berlin with my own hands (before the east military drove us away with water-cannons, but we did do some damage :D) :joy:

No guarantees of course, but if we can get in, we'll report from there :)

Love and Peace and Can Y'All Read My Signature!?

OMG! Can't breathe.... Need... paper bag... somebody slap me! :bonk:

Okay... I hope this is true... I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope... uh, oh.. Here I go again...:thud:

Huh? What? Oh, hey, welcome aboard HP1! Helluva 1st post!

Tiriel got to say I love you! That would be the coolest thing ever! Hope you can. :cloud9:

[jondbrien]

This an absolutely awesome development. Whatever form of continuation is announced, it's becuase of all of you awesome people who have impressed me from the very first time I logged onto this site. I want to thank you for inspiring me, but remember, even if we win the battle, we must continue to fight so we can win the WAR!!!!!!!!

Remember to thank our other watchful junior member, gf2020, for his post regarding Dark Horizon's article on this subject as well.

So much for getting anything done today or all day tomorrow either. :comp: Oh and maybe the weekend. Hell maybe the rest of the month! :joy:

[aeryncrichton]

This has *got* to be more than, "hang in there" -- So, frell it all, I'm getting my hopes and expectations up! :D

And I gotta say, I love TV Guide's editorializing about "This had better not be the 2003 Farscape Christmas ornament!" LOL!

Either way ... WELCOME HP!!!!! :aok:

Just a guess. I suppose I should'a put smileys in there.

If he is the lawyer though, I demand a chocolate cake :D

An interesting posit, though... it would explain a fair amount of the available data.

Still in shock - but will try to stay calm - likely not capable of it. Such happy news I am sure.

Sounding like a child can be the only appropriate thing in some cases ... and I second the sentiment ... man, do I totally *NOT* feel like doing any more work today!!

Does anyone have a confirmed time for this thing tomorrow? Morning? Afternoon? I should prepare myself ... I'm less likely to get funny looks if I scream and do the happy dance *outside* the office building ... :D

[BlackThorn]

WOO-FRELLING-HOO!!!!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[generic_screenname]

I'm just wondering what time this is going to take place, because I forsee the site's server being flooded and crashing tomorrow. If you thought the day of the last episode was bad, think of how many new people have discovered Farscape since then...

[stellar]

Did you know that g_s and me combined is illegal in the state of Louisiana... I looked it up. That truss thing is pretty funny.

As for the press conference: I may have hurt myself a little when I read that announcement for the announcement. Any idea if it can be viewed/listened to in real time?

My left foot will not stop tapping. That is all.

[recklesshumor]

I'm dying here!! Will the press conference be televised? Help!!!

[Mreen]

Finally we get to hear the official version of what's next!


Burbank is gonna be a blast, I'm so jealous of all who are going.


Grinner, like your Tardis.


And about that last sentence ....

well, you know, I'd like to have Moya ornament from Hallmark this year :D

[buggabboo]

the server should be ready for any and all traffic that heads our way.

and yes i know that those are the famous last words...

[Kerrigan]

I keep coming back to this thread, waiting... reading... waiting... yes, I know tomorrow is a long way but I can't help it! Yeah, no sleep for me either tonight!

[Darth Buddha]

buggabboo, am I right to assume that there will be a mass e-mail to all members once we have the facts from the announcement?

[StarsGoBlue]

*heh heh heh*

Now Stars realizes what a certain someone was trying to tell her (next time, you'll probl'y want to hit me with a 2x4, LOL....)

And can I just say.....

[atlantagirl]

How do we do telegrams? Wouldn't it be great if those of us not at Burbank would send telegrams of congratulations to the production team after the announcement?! I've never sent a telegram before. How do you do it? And where should I send it? Henson offices? The hotel where the convention is? What do y'all think?

[BlackThorn]

I'm seeing another reason to send flowers goodies coming up . . .

And I would recommend that we NOT ask Matt. LOL. Give him a little breathing room. I think he'll celebrate with us when the time comes though. Actually, I KNOW he will.

Damn straight. It's only one story they caould tell this one shot. I find it hard to beleive that sets would be rebuit and money invested for a one-shot deal. This will be a step up, not a wrap-up!

It's been a wonderful, amazing year. Last year this time I didn't really know any of you. Now I can't imagine life without all of you! I am looking forward to spending the next leg of this campaign with the Farscape community. You are all the very, very best!

Holy moley, I just read this entire thread. Looking at the timing, (just before Burbank), the source, (TV guide and cinescape), I am really up in the air over this one. I hope that savefarscape will be able to get someone to eavesdrop on the meeting. Jeez, this makes my year. I don't know what else to say.......

[Digger]

So what do y'all think of the Dark Horizon article? I think if you put it together with the TV Guide article it spells "HELL YEAH!"

M-O-O-N. That spells "Hell Yeah!"

[Selena]

So what do y'all think of the Darkhorizons article?

Farscape (TV): The cancelled but highly acclaimed Sci-Fi Channel series which had its plug pulled earlier this year may be making a comeback. Last week an insider sent along this rumour: "Farscape is back in production - the series is to be wrapped up in 4-6 new episodes with the usual crew, cast and producers. The props and sets are being dusted off and are being assembled in preparation for filming in Sydney. The new mini-season will complete the story arc and bring closure". An interesting story and a solid source but still it sounded almost like wishful thinking and as there still hasn't been any official announcement about it I held off. After all, you would've thought Sci-Fi would have shouted it from the rooftops that its coming back to appease the ravenous fans of the show (incl. me). Then some people I know connected with the show started mentioning it's coming back and its confirmed that the Sydney production office is open again. I placed three separate calls to them on Tuesday to confirm/deny the rumours and all three calls were not only summarily cut off at their end but the secretary hurled nasty insults (courtesy is a dying art) - I've never had problems with these guys before so best guess would be they've been advised not to speak to press at all (which would explain the lack of coverage locally). That would also explain that when I got in contact with a US publicity rep for Sci-Fi, they said they couldn't comment on it at this time but will be releasing details when they're available soon. Something IS stirring, I guess we'll have to wait to find out what exactly.

I didn't think there were any sets to dust off :eh:

[jayelsee]

Oooooooooooh, my stomach, my stomach. I stayed home from work today with the stomach flu, or I wouldn't have seen this yet. This is not helping my stomach. Oh. Wait. Yes. It. Is. I am SO glad I had the stomach flu today!

I'm making margharitas! Now. I am, really! Does anyone have smilies for happy tears?:rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin: :rollin:

Oh, please, please let it be true.

[kechara420]

Maybe they managed to save some of the smaller pieces, or it's really just the props ... or maybe it means that Pilot and Rygel are getting a "get-out-of-jail-free" card ... :D

[padmeskywalker]

I think I remember them saying they put the prowler and the module in storage along with Pilot and Rygel, etc. I think the writer is just using a bit of editorial license anyway.

[bgdbeatnik]

I'd personally like to have more than 4-6 new episodes. Am I being too picky? I really liked the story that ran in the Farscape magazine-- that gave me closure.

More!

I was alright until kechara420 mentioned Rygel and Pilot being pulled from their boxes. Now I tears in my eyes.

I'm so happy. I love every single Scaper.

I still think a flood of congratulatory telegrams to Henson, DK and Rockne at Burbank (or the Henson offices) from those of us not attending the con would be a great thing.

Well Saturday at the con would be a good day to send stuff.

This news is just great, it's almost surreal,
Let's hope it is really a very good deal.

Brian and David have both said,
Just to make a few eps, it would not go ahead.
With baited breath and with great joy
We hope it's good news and not a decoy.

If you mean after the announcement, and if it is THE announcement, I plan to get drunk. later, I will think about ways in which I can help to promote the show so that an even wider audience finds it. Xothas is still collecting money for the Advertising campaing. I say we continue to add to it so we can put it to good use.

A quote from Andy Dufrane popped into my head when I read through these posts. When he got a couple of boxes to start his library he said: "Now I'll write two letters a week instead of just one."

So I say we wait for the news and celebrate if we get four episodes out of this. Then we buckle down and let 'em know we won't settle for less than a full season.

We'd all like more, and I have a feeling that we'll eventually get it. This is a HUGE step, but I feel it's just that--a step.

Ideally, we'll get 4-6 eps or a miniseries that resolves the S4 cliffhanger. With luck (and a lot more hard work and pimping by us fans ;) ) the ratings will be high. That, in turn, will hopefully show TPTB at various networks that Farscape *is* a valuable an viable commodity, and it will be picked up for syndication or another mini/short run. That will broaden the viewer base even *further* and hopefully lead to another full season somewhere.

Granted, that's a long road, and it won't be an easy one. But this first step is the most important one. We've gotton the message across that Farscape is worth saving!

4-6 wrap up episodes. That would please many, and make ME very happy....However...I want more. Always did!

Sounds like the announcement will come from Sydney..No chance of a AVI viewing for the desperate masses...You'da thunk it would be from LA. What's the frelling timetable?????? ARGH!

OOOO..a thought, just to drive the masses nuts..IF it's from Sydney, then Thursday is NOW...so..could we be getting a press conference in the new few minutes???

Yup. I'm here for the long haul. But I just feel....instead of being upset that it's "only" six for episodes we should celebrate this for what it's worth. Which is a lot. It just seems like Henson, the crew and cast, everyone here, has worked too hard to let the absolute coolness of something like this be diluted.

No one's gonna forget about Farscape after the resolution of the current cliffhanger. I think this thread, and the amount of people online, is proof of that.

There's lead time on any advertising, so it might not be possible to get an ad in any of the LA papers by Saturday, even if we had already raised the funds to do it.

So, they order a bunch, WE make sure they get watched... and then they order more.... or am I missing something?
Who ordered them? :huh: That kinda makes a difference right?

[CeRell]

Ah....good point. Luckily, I've managed to pick up two extra part time jobs so I'll be able contribute $$$$$ for advertising. We GOTTA get up the ratings for when our show returns to us.

I AM frelling delireous at getting an end to the current cliffhanger, however, it's like dragging myself out of the desert and having my lips covered in lip baum. I want a HUGE class of lemonaide! I want my FARSCAPE!

And I wanna be in Burbank to join in the racous celabration! A thought...If Rock's in Sydney for a conference, how could he be planning on being in Burbank for the con? Wouldn't it be more logical to have the conference in LA at the Henson offices? Has anyone called the LA Henson offices?

[Selena]

Burbank - Friday
1:45: RICHARD MANNING
Welcome to The Convention
I think he's the one that's going to get the welcome .....

If the Rock is at a press conference in Australia tomorrow (late Thursday -early Friday ~ 14 hours time difference) the poor bloke will be wasted after a 14 hour flight to be there on Saturday ...

Saturday
1:30: ROCKNE O'BANNON
"The Origins of Farscape"
Does anyone think he's going to be able to speak on that topic - alone .... :rollin:

[Timmayy]

Hmmm, never been drunk before. I think Friday night at the con might change that.

What was that series called again? Tremors!?? :shrug:

[pktech]

has anyone heard at what time the conference is going to be held

I would assume that the reason that they didn't want the information to leak out was because Brian, DK, and Rockne wanted to announce it as close to the con as possible.

This is frelling awesome news! Tomorrow can't come quickly enough. However Farscape comes back, I will consider it a huge victory--and just the motivation that we need to keep on fighting!

There aren't enough smilies in the world to express my joy and excitement, so these will have to suffice:

The press conference is postponed. Red just heard it from Henson. :confused:

No worries, guys. Just keep your eyes open. :)

[lightningbox]

Dang! I am much more lurker than poster, but this is too much. I can't stop smiling! :)

[Roland]

POSTPONED!!! :mad:

[RomCen]

:smokin: I can't stop grinning here. If this keeps up, I'm going to have to start putting vaseline on my teeth like those beauty pagent contestants! You guys are posting faster than I can read!:aok:

[RomCen]

NOOOOOOOOOO! Not postponed!!! I can't take it...THUNK!

[seattlescaper]

Frell Me Dead!

Considering Farscape's history, it is only fitting that we should be teased into a state of frensy before the big announcement tomorrow. What's one more cliffhanger. After months of rumors, tips, hints . . .it killing me . . . frell . . . good frell.

[atlantagirl]

:bawl: :bawl: :bawl:

[CeRell]

Postponed??? Mayhaps TPTB decided to scrap Sydney as the base of the press conference in exchange for LA where they can get more coverage from TV and mags!!!!!!

[NYPinTA]

Maybe it's just postponed until the convention and they wanna announce it there? (((Hope))) :D

Edit: What CeRell said.

Well, look at it this way, if you had a significant announcement about Farscape, wouldn't you want to make it at the Con? :D

[Frag_You!]

That probably means that it was postoned...until Burbank, maybe? Those lucky few scapers going might get the treat of their lives. Where better to have a "Farscape has Returned" press conference than there, at the official convention?

Either that or some contract has yet to be signed or is still being negotiated, so they couldn't have the press conference yet. Somebody forgot to dot the i's and t's. Ah well, will they never learn? :P

Good things are a happenin', people, good things! Keep up the hope, the press conference will come eventually! And I will keep writin' letters until (and maybe even after) then.

WHO'S WITH ME!? :)

[CeRell]

So true! This torture is SO Farscape! MAYBE TPTB decided to hold their press conference AT the Burbank convention????

[atlantagirl]

Thanks Roland.

Got to learn . . . classic DK fake out.

Life imitates art.

This thread is going so fast, it's like a slow chat room!

Bad frell! Very bad frell!! But dang it, you're right! Loving Farscape means never having to say you don't like cliffhangers...

Now I'm not even making sense anymore...

It is a frelling cliff hanger .... Aaarrrrgggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
we need a Charlie Brown emoticon.

Well at least that means I can now get back to work just as soon as I find something to mop my keyboard with
:cry2: :bawl: :cry2: :sadbye: :pace:

[recklesshumor]

Postponed!!! :P Before this rumor, I was only very jealous of those attending the Burbank con. Now I'm apoplectic!! Somebody get me a tongue depressor!!! :ballchain

:rollin: Well, I'm glad one of us understand us!

Ah, DK, you torturer you!:whip:

[Borgi]

This sounds SO much like they will do the announcement in Burbanks.... Just a few more arns to wait for us...

Hey, people: we´ve been waiting for this for more than one!frelling!year!!!

We still know, they have something to tell us! Whatever it is - it just has to be good...

:banana:

[recklesshumor]

Why a tongue depressor?

To keep me from choking during my seizure of frustration!!

[NYPinTA]

I was going to stop and get a Lotto ticket on my way home because I was feeling lucky... Now I think I'll stop at the liquor store! :rollin:

I still have hope... Burbank. Really! :D
Night all.

[CeRell]

Ooooo an announcement at Burbank...perhaps a CA scaper or a scaper with their handy digital camera can sneak in a video for the masses that can't attend the convention. MAYBE Gary could be persauded to permit a video????

[BlackThorn]

Bummer. However, that fact that they had planned to do a press conference in the first place means volumes to me!! Something is in the works. As we've been saying for months, Farscape will be back. It's just a question of when!

[atlantagirl]

Well heaven help Brian, DK and Rockne at Burbank if they don't make an announcement.

:flee:

[bgdbeatnik]

Yeah... I don't think I'd be very comfortable walking into that venue without something substantial to say.

I don't think walking in would be the problem, I don't think that part would a problem at all... :D

It could be for a million reasons. Here is what I like to think: They were planning on doing a small little announcement, maybe just via conference call, to some of the major entertainment news outlets.
Then TVGuide jumped the gun and announced the upcoming news-conference. Suddenly the entire net lights up, everybody's talking about the Buzz. Someone at CNN HLN hears about it and decides it's a good follow up story, as do others. So they call up Henson, asking about the when and where and if they can send a team.
Suddenly Henson finds themselves in the middle of this frenzy (should feel familiar by now :D) and of course now a small conference-call thingy isn't going to do, but they haven't prepared for anything big...soooooo, they postphone indefinitely, i.e. until they can set up for a live broadcast :D :D :D

OK, maybe I'm getting slightly carried away here, but it could be what happened :D

Love and Peace and Hope :)

Tiriel :bounce:

[Shipscat]

I have to say I like that scenario, Tiriel. :)

[Becka]

I agree, I like Tiriel's scenerio as well! I think I will sleep on that one, positive thoughts!!

[cybergal]

I've come to the same conclusion Tiriel. Like I said at Kansas:

A Press Release for the Press Release. How drad is that?


Something is definitely up. Another cliffhanger..... Cool.
