IGN's FilmForce is reporting of rumors that The Jim Henson Company is prepping for a 4 hour Farscape mini-series.

For the uninformed, Farscape was the critically acclaimed show on SciFi that was cancelled without warning. They has made big news about picking up Farscape for another 2 seasons (which would be the last as season 5 was the planned end of the show). However half way through the 4th season in a sci-fi chat room the announcement was leaked that sci-fi opted out of the season 5 and would cancel the show.

Well the show ended the season with the usual cliffhanger to get you excited about the next. However it was not to be.

Now these reports are in no way verified by anyone from Henson or SciFi so take it with a grain of salt. However, I do hope it turns out to be true. It's well known that Henson had the entire season 5 planned out so it's very possible that a rewrite for a short mini-series to clean up the loose end has been in the works since the cancellation announcement. It could be that a script has just been finalized and possibly passed onto SciFi for discussion.

For now it's just a rumor...
