Farscape fan thanks

Henson honcho says return is due to fans.

Brian Henson, director of the new Farscape miniseries (and overall mighty muppet at Hensons, the makers of the show) has paid tribute to the fans who helped bring the series back.

In a statement on the Henson company's website, Henson says: "This special television event would not be a reality were it not for the tireless, unwavering efforts of the Farscape fans to bring the series back. Like all of us at The Jim Henson Company, they believed that the epic story we were telling was something special and deserved a proper ending. We are thrilled to respond to their dedication be creating this miniseries, thus resolving many of the unanswered questions from the final episode and giving fans their just due."

And it's not just a quiet thank you note, either - it takes up the front page of the Henson site.

The four hour return of Farscape (closer to three for UK fans) is scheduled to air on the US in the autumn. There are no details of when it will be shown in the UK.
