People are still learning about Farscape. I found the following: http://www.alternet.org/story.html?StoryID=17214

especially the following paragraph:
"The ghosts of multimedia present were everywhere in attendance. Scott Beale, owner of indie ISP Laughing Squid, was wondering aloud if he should have worn a different T-shirt. Matt Gonzalez was schmoozing with Web designers near the beer kegs. Jason Shankel, a developer at Maxis since the days of Sim City, gave me a quick plot synopsis of recently departed S.F. TV show Farscape that ended with the magic words, "It's like a combination of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Blake's 7." OK, I'm buying the (frelling) DVDs. Right now."

OK, he didn't say frelling, but I figured I'd tone down the language a little. :)

Is Jason on the board? Congrats! And welcome to the audience, Annalee!

LOL, that's great.

Lessee... if that line works so well, maybe I should try it on someone sometime... ;-)

Yay Jason! And what a great (and alarmingly accurate) line! :)

Wow, never heard FS described quite that way! Thanks for letting us know...and I sit back and wonder how many other people will get turned on to the series by him.
