Well, sod it anyway. I was enjoying that for a change. Fecking dumbing-down audiences. Oh, sure Warehouse 13 and True Blood we'll watch, but if it's neither silly&trite, or t&a, the neilson ratings hit rock bottom and the network pulls it. Gah. This is what happened to Firefly dammit...

Oh God it was AWFUL! Bad BAD sci-fi (Instantanious communication back to Earth..... Magnetic hairspray?).

...Someone mentioned Firefly in the same breath as this show. PLEASE tell me that was sarcasm. PLEASE!!! (BTW, if this whole thread is sarcasm I apologise)

If it was described as grey's anatomy in space that would be enough to put me off, but to be fair, you can't criticise it for its implausible sci-fi technology but in the same post praise Firefly (they have spaceships capable of interstellar travel and laser weapons, yet still use 19th centry style revolver pistols and rifles?)
