It's a sci-fi show. The main character, John Crichton, goes on a space mission (The Farscape Project) - something about using the earth's gravity to shoot him into space - and ends up getting shot through a wormhole and ends up in a different galaxy, essentially. He ends up on a ship, Moya - she's a living ship, actually - with a bunch of escaped alien prisoners. (Prisoners who were wrongfully prisoned.) There's also a woman soldier (Aeryn Sun) who ends up on the ship from a race called Sebacceans. She looks like a human for all intents and purposes. And they end up being on the run together on this ship and sort of become a family. And there's a fabulous, fabulous romance between John and Aeryn.
Some of the creatures on the show are muppet creatures...so they're very, very bizarre sometimes. But really, it's a character-driven show anyway, so I love the relationships between all the main characters. If you like space shows at all, I'd definitely give it a try. John and Aeryn are seriously the hottest couple I have seen on TV. Amazing, amazing chemistry. And the actors are really great friends in real life, which makes it even better. *points to icon* That's John and Aeryn.
Poor you - getting such a long explanation. I can't help it, though. I love Farscape.
