just a heads up. ive experienced an problem with my Ultimate Farscape Collection where the discs make a very loud whirring when played. i have had returned mine to Amazon and ive been led to believe that this may be a problem with the pressing of this collection. its a shame. this is a fantastic collection of a great program.

I recently bought the Complete Collection as a present for my brother. But, it is not called the Ultimate Farscape Collection. Are they the same?

Maybe he means the "Definitive Collection" that has been released in UK a few weeks ago.
I also have it and some discs make that noise, but otherwise they play without problem.

It's a nice box, including all four seasons, Peacekeeper Wars movie and 6 bonus discs, but unfortunately they have no subs.

yes SpaceFreakMicha is right i mean the definitive collection sorry that i wasn't clear on it Kathy!

yeah i loved the collection too (though the lack of subs was really irritating....) but the discs making that noise was too worrying for me and after looking around i realised that i had no choice but return it. My various devices are currently beyond my finances to replace so i cant take any risks with them. I'm irritated cos i really didn't want to return them but as it appears to be a problem with the set.... i saw no way out.... oh well with the refund ill probably get the BSG bluray set!

I'm sorry you had a problem - I hope they can fix it and you can re-order it.

I'm relieved though that my gift will not have to be returned - my brother really loves this series.

Thank you both for the clarification.

You can't go wrong with BSG. I didn't see Farscape yet, but unfortunately already own Seasons 1 and 3 and The Peacekeeper Wars. Should have waited for a box set.

While technically both sci-fi shows they couldn't be more different. One is a drama show set in a space environment and the other is the australian version of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

I'm in the middle of watching Farscape for the first time.  So far, I'm not overly impressed.  It does, however, have its moments. I think Browder and Black were better in Stargate SG1.

Same here (well 1 & 2 and the Peacekeeper Wars) - it's an unfortunate position but the Definitive Collection is already going for about the £60 mark and it's only been out a month. I reckon with a bit of patience it will cost me significantly less to get the full set than the two seasons I'm missing plus I should make some money back selling on the sets I have on Ebay anyway.
