Hi,
That was a fun series that didn't fall into the trap of taking itself too seriously. I think it was too tongue in cheek for the SiFi types and too SiFi for anyone else -- a shame, since I think it deserved a longer run. In some ways, it reminded me of Lexx, another series that I enjoyed for the most part, but would rather it had died than degenerated into what it became its last season.
It seems that those are two common occurrences. Either a series is pulled when it is still going good, or a series continues past its expiration date (i.e., it's gone bad). Other than mini-series, I can't think of any that were ended 'just right' (although Lost might do it today). Any candidates?
