    Sci-fi have commissioned a series of "webisodes" like they did with BSG last year. Details are still sketchy, but considering it was looking like "The Peacekeeper Wars" were going to the be the last we would see of Moya&crew, this is frelling great news imo. :)

    definately would be interested in watching these, hopefully they keep the dark gritty feeling the original series had

    Dark gritty!?

    What show were you watching, all I seen was lots of excessive silly humor and a silly looking creature with a fanny on his face! (Dargo) :p

    It was a show capable of delivering both - whimsical animated episodes of near pure farce and then extremely dark, bleak, horror episodes ("Eat Me"). That ability to stretch the medium, sometimes within the same episode, is what made the show so special. A pure farcical comedy it was certainly not.

    Assuming you have a multi-region DVD player (and everyone should!) then get the Australian DVD boxed sets or the US Starburst editions, which are considerably cheaper (especially with the weak US dollar).
