Yeah, I know I'm late, but I want to proudly go on record that I was hooked during the first-run premiere episode on Sci-Fi channel.  A life-long sf fan (I watched Trek from its very beginning, as well), I'm always interested in something new, and Farscape was definitely that.  I immediately liked the Aussie cheekiness, and its being produced by Henson was a real plus, too!

Kimberly,

When I heard John say, "Stop or I'll fill you full of little green bolts of light."  In the commercials running on Sci-fi and USA. I was hooked I had to see it and there was no going back for me.

The line was little YELLOW bolts of light, Kim

To be fair, it's like calling those Tavloids which annoy John so much "Tavleks" instead ;)

When I first saw Moya, and then found out that she was well a she.  That was so cool and I loved that it wasn't Star Trek, I know I am siging my own death warrent, but I don't really like Trek so Farscape made me fall in Sci Fi for the first time and I have never looked back.

The very first episode that I hired on video, and I was hooked.

Thank you Farscape. :)
