Frell me , the new Farscape anniversary box set calculate nerveless . 90 + minutes of erase scenes , 29 episode commentaries , behind - the - scenes featurettes aplenty — and of course , Farscape Undressed , hosted byBen Browder , Claudia Black , Rygel and Pilot .
Brian Hensonlost no prison term in telling us that the Fraggle Rock characteristic film and the Dark Crystal sequel , The Power Of The Dark Crystal , were both slated to be unblock in 2011 . He is a interfering guy these day , splitting his time between working these two films and the new Farscape task .

we ’re just more interested in continuing the established story than in deviating into a spin - off . These little , non - linear webisodes will be the launch pad for for the next major chapter of Farscape . It ’s about family ; the go along story of of Aeryn , Crichton , and their son .
Maker and director Rockne S. O’Bannon reveals that
the webisodes actually get , chronologically , before the comics . We stare study on the webisodes first , so we could figure out where they fit on the Farscape timeline . And THATS where the comics set off .

Henson comends the actor for taking a huge leap of faith in work with the creatures .
All we had when they bring together the shape were sketches , no muppets . Working with the creatures is challange … you have to regale them with respect , they have to be real to you . Although , in all fairness I have to admit my favorite moments in Farscape are when Claudia smacks Rygel upside the head . ”
Black agrees the experience was satisfy .
It was great to eventually get my hand on Rygel ! but really , I think it genuinely address to the natural endowment of the creators that they were capable to create these tender , aroused scenes with nothing more than rubber and latex paint .
