“Farscape” geeks…and you know who you are, and you may stand proud of your status…may now do their dance of joy at NBC Universal’s confirmation that the series’ creator, Rockne O’Bannon, will indeed be executive-producing the 10 new “webisodes” of the series, as well as serving to develop stories.
According to the press release from NBC Universal, O’Bannon will work closely with executive producers Brian Henson and Robert Halmi, Jr., and SCIFI.COM’s Craig Engler, to develop the online show’s storyline, which will revive and expand the Farscape universe, with each episode anticipated to run 3-6 minutes in length.
“The characters, creatures, passions, conflicts and barely contained lunacy of the Farscape universe have never stopped. We just haven’t had a window into that universe lately to see what’s currently happening there. Well now we do. And it ain’t calm, and it ain’t pretty, and it ain’t like anything anyone is going to expect. But it is totally Farscape,” promised O’Bannon in the press release.
