Only 22 episodes?
Man, my memory must suck, cause as a kid, I though it lasted longer than that. The baby and everything was in that one season? Wow.
shareI was crushed when this perfectly formulated show was cancelled. HOW crap like Buffy and Angel got past 1 episode is beyond me. Look at crap like plastercine heads in Farscape lasting more than one season. Space Above And Beyond is another example where a fine show goes under after one season. Dark Horizon was a superb follow up though. When is it on dvd??
shareWhoa! Speaking as a "Buffy" addict and an "Angel" fan, I take offense (not really)... I loved "Alien Nation" AND the aforementioned shows... "crap" is in the eye of the beholder, hon...
The hardest thing in this world is to live in it.

I though Buffy was going to be stupid. Then I actually watched it. I was wrong. Really, really, wrong. That was a hell of a good show. Angel wasn't quite as good, but the characters (and the actors) were fantastic. As for Joss's other shows, Firefly started a little slow and then quickly got BRILLIANT. And the last few episodes of Dollhouse have been mind blowing. Completely. Mind. Blowing. But Firefly and Dollhouse have suffered from the same thing Alien Nation suffered from. That would be the Fox I-don't-get-it-so-cancel-it-and-put-on-more-karaoke-shows Machine.
In fact, the cancellation of Dollhouse was actually the reason I came to visit the Alien Nation listing in the first place. I wanted to check how long ago I should have learned that Fox can't tell a good show when they see one. Twenty years, apparently. I am kicking myself that I fell for it again, and got hooked on a show they'd never give half a chance. I am just done with Fox.
