AS SCI FI TELEVISION CLASSIC FARSCAPE MARKS ITS 10TH ANNIVERSARY, A&E HOME ENTERTAINMENT AND THE JIM HENSON COMPANY PARTNER ON A RE-LAUNCH OF THE DVD FRANCHISE.

The Re-packaged Line, Slated for November 2009, Includes the First-Ever COMPLETE SERIES MEGASET? Featuring All Four Out-of-This World Seasons.

Fans Invited to Attend Panel Featuring Executive Producer Brian Henson, Creator Rockne O?Bannon and Stars Ben Browder and Claudia Black this July at Comic-Con International 2009.

When a freak accident during an experimental space mission catapulted Astronaut John Crichton (Ben Browder) across a thousand galaxies to an alien battlefield, a cult classic was born with the epic, adventure-filled TV series Farscape.  The award-winning fan favorite show, which ran from 1999-2003 on Sci Fi and was named by TV Guide as one of television?s best cult shows ever, is about to blast off again on DVD courtesy of a pact between A&E Home Entertainment and The Jim Henson Company.

Blasting off in November 2009, as the show marks its 10th Anniversary, the treasure of the newly re-packaged DVD line will feature a Farscape home entertainment first: THE COMPLETE SERIES MEGASET?.  Never before available in one package, A&E Home Entertainment brings together all four out-of-this-world seasons with countless hours of absorbing bonus programming featuring multiple commentaries, interviews with cast and crew, behind-the-scenes featurettes and much more!  Single season collector?s sets will also be released, offering genre fans of all walks the opportunity to sample this superlative sci-fi classic.

To launch this eagerly-anticipated re-release, there will be a Farscape panel convening at this year?s Comic-Con International in San Diego.  Executive producer Brian Henson, creator Rockne O?Bannon, and stars Ben Browder and Claudia Black (Officer Aeryn Sun) will be in attendance to discuss their favorite moments from the series and the DVD re-release.
