After more than a year of tough campaigning, champagne corks can now pop for Scapers as the series "Farscape" almost officially has been resurrected.

According to the Save Farscape Campaign, the series, which was cancelled by the Sci-Fi Channel last year, will return as a four-part mini-series. Filming will begin in December with the four episodes airing sometime in 2004. While Jim Henson Co. will be in charge of production, there has been no official announcement as of yet on the show. Also, it is unclear whether the miniseries will air on Sci-Fi Channel, or through other means.

According to reports, Ben Browder (John Crichton) and Claudia Black (Aeryn Sun) will return to the series. There is no word on other actors, but it is expected that many of them will be back.

"The fans reacted immediately to news of the cancellation and began one of the most impressive fan campaigns in television history," said a release at the Save Farscape site. "Through a strength of spirit and ideals of community and family, the fans of 'Farscape' have created something fabulous and achieved something that should have been impossible.

"Take a bow, Scapers. You did it. You saved 'Farscape,' and don't let anybody tell you differently. This is all yours. You kept the hope alive, you kept 'Farscape' alive, until the people behind 'Farscape' could get back to work on telling us the rest of the tale again."
