Farscape

Synopsis

American astronaut John Crichton (Ben Browder - "Stargate SG-1") is catapulted to the distant edge of the universe where an intergalactic conflict rages. As he searches for a way home, his journey to new worlds becomes not just an odyssey of courage for him but also a journey of the mind and heart in the award-winning science-fiction adventure series Farscape.

For John Crichton, the distinction of being a second-generation astronaut is a mixed blessing. After earning his doctorate in Theoretical Sciences, Crichton spent his time as a scientist/astronaut in his famous father's shadow, always trying to impress and please Jack Crichton (Kent McCord - "Adam-12"), but never forced to scramble to make a name for himself, since he was born into the legacy without even lifting a finger. When his experimental mission aboard the Farscape One module shoots him through a wormhole, the younger Crichton finds himself definitely not in Kansas anymore. Here, he is at last forced to call upon the heroic qualities he has inherited from his Dad but has never needed to use. Crichton's natural leadership and decision-making skills make him an important member of Moya's crew; his complete lack of cultural understanding of alien races and technology makes his "heroics" just that much more difficult.

Hurled across the universe into the midst of an intergalactic conflict, trapped among alien creatures wielding deadly technology and hunted by a merciless military race, Crichton is propelled on an epic odyssey more spectacular than anything he could ever have imagined in Farscape.
