About this episode

Eric and Jason discuss the series finale of Farscape and their thoughts on the cliffhanger ending.

To quote another famous science fiction ending - "This is the end, but the moment has been prepared for." Eric and Jason discuss the series finale of Farscape - Season 4: Bad Timing. Having seen this when it originally aired, Eric has been waiting five years - since the start of this podcast - to see how Jason would react to that ending... and yeah, it was worth the wait. While we eventually got the closure we deserved 18 months later with The Peacekeeper Wars, the original 2003 cliffhanger left fans reeling for a long time. We wrap up this episode by discussing our Best and Worst episodes of Season 4. NOTE: We are taking a brief break from the Uncharted Territories! Next time, we're heading to New York City for Daredevil: Born Again Season 2. Stay tuned - we'll be back for the Peacekeeper Wars soon!
