Yeah, it was pretty obvious what was happening if you watched that final episode. Never did figure out why Nathan didn't just fly him to a great altitude (or even into orbit?) and release him. Peter could have blown up then and not harmed Nathan.

The second season started the -- 'we need a problem that can't be addressed by any capability' -- 'we need an ability to address that problem' -- spiral. Between the constantly changing rules of the game, the constantly changing alliances, and the inconsistency of the characterizations between one episode and the next, I found that I no longer cared what happened to anyone in that series. We started missing episodes and pretty soon, we were out of it.

But it was a good season 1. Smile
