When referring to the Farscape Miniseries "Peacekeeper War," which do you use for short? Do you just call it "the mini," or do you use one of those ep-title acronyms we all know and love so very much?

Yeah, I call it "the mini" too... I suppose I will untill another mini comes along... I still get a bit confsed when people refer to it as "PK war", but I guess I'll get used to it with time. :)

I still call it the mini cause I got in the habit of calling it that before I knew the name of it and it is shorter to type.

Good poll. I still call it "the mini-series". Everytime I say "Peacekeeper War" it bothers me. Not because I don't like the title, but because I have a problem with the grammar. It's not technically incorrect, but I'd rather "The Peacekeeper War," or "Peacekeeper Wars".

"The Mini", it's shorter and easier to speak and write :). I know, i'm lazy :D

If I'm talking to anyone I refer to it as "The mini" but if I'm writing about it I call it Farscape: Peacekeeper War ... so abbreviated I guess it would be FPKW :lol

I tend to say "the miniseries" myself. I guess that's closer to "the mini" than to "Peacekeeper War". Like Stellar I get a little erked by the grammatical mistakes too... which reminds me, while on the topic of the title, is it officially Peacekeeper War now? I heard for a while from... I can't remember who, but someone, on FMD, that it was Skiffy's error and that it's actually "The Peacekeeper Wars", or vice versa, or something. Does anyone here know exactly which title it is? I'm really confused about that... it could be part of the reason I'm just calling it the miniseries still.

In the announcement Henson posted, they called it "Farscape: Peacekeeper War", so it's not just Skiffy.

I call it "the mini" still.. just because that was what I got used to calling it from when we first found out.

I refer to it as "the mini" and even after it aires I'll probably call it "the mini". I guess I'm just used to calling it that.
