to bring it all in on itself -- this is a premise in a later Farscape episode if I remember right. Some distant alien race is looking for television show ideas and one of them keeps pitching Earth shows until finally they decide upon creating a new Farscape.

They used Stargate cast members as cameos as fan-service towards people who mentioned the likeness of actors between the two series.

Ah, and how could I have forgotten Claudia Black and Claudia Black? It's been a few years.

It was good to see both of them get a few good SG-1 seasons on the strength of Farscape.

And then Scalzi’s redshirts takes that idea in another really interesting direction.
