2003-2011, a period that seems to be marked by a feeling of having missed this show terribly!
After all, it wasn’t any ordinary sci-fi that enthralled us for four consecutive years!
Shouldn’t we bow our heads in deep regard to technology personified?
For me, it has been transformed into nothing less than an idiosyncrasy to watch the show, Farscape online.
The thing I most admire about its protagonist till date is the fact that he would face every challenge without fretting for a second, or taking it as a daunting task!
‘Zelbinion’ and ‘Maldis’ – did that ring bells in your ears?
That’s certainly not Latin I’m speaking, nor is it a refined version of the snake’s lingua franca (that’s the Harry Potter effect)!
These incongruities formed the crux of the show in its initial season. Crichton, an inhabitant of Earth had just been thrust on the Moya via a wormhole.
Zelbinion, if you guys remember, was the hulk of the Peacekeeper Ship; it confronts Crichton, posing not as a danger bringing forth a surprise worth having!
It was in one of the subsequent segments that Crichton was drawn to Maldis, which acted as a black hole for all sorts of negative energy.
Crichton is allured to this deadly creature Maldis, only to confront Crais that resulted in the fiercest of clashes.
So now, the stories related to Zelbinion and Maldis might have been refurbished in your mind. Well, you can thank me; I would take it as flattery!

The show is a limited exhibition of 10 performances from August 18th to 27th. It is organized by none other than the award-winning director, producer, writer and now puppeteer Brian Henson.
Ben has been a pivotal part of both the shows, which is why the comparison of both his roles is inevitable.
The veteran star is blessed with such an exclusive sense of witticism, that one can’t stop giggling, as Ben reveals his true persona!
