Farscape

Not only that , it was voiced and acted by the one and only Frank Oz, the Muppet man second only to the late Jim Henson himself.
Take THAT Muppet-hater.
I'm not a muppet-fan, but the muppet work on Farscape was outstanding. Pilot was a great character which just as much depth and emotion as any of the other characters.
Character development was one thing the show did extraordinarily well. Even Moya and Talyn were characters that you cared about, though they were essentially spaceships that don't really talk.

I almost just started this same exact thread, used the search function, and found the thread.

I watched quite a bit of Farscape and need to acquire the series on DVD to add to my collection and finish the series.
For Christmas I bought my wife the complete collection of Babylon 5 and we have been binge-watching it, such a fantastic series and one of the first sci-fi TV programs to work on a structured story arc.

Amazon apparently has it. I was just about to sign up for a trial so I could watch it over the weekend but my Apple TV 2 doesn't have amazon.
A frelling (if you watched the series, you know the word) brilliant series. I have the DVDs when they were released a long time ago. The commentary tracks are interesting with a few good behind the scenes tidbits. There are some good special features profiling the characters and actors worth watching. There are some issues with the video quality of the 2011 Blu-Ray release from A&E Home Entertainment. The 2013 15th Anniversary Edition uses the same Blu-Ray transfer. Seems that the original 35mm prints are lost, so the video is up-scaled from the original PAL format, meaning it could look better. Check out blu-ray.com for the full story.
