this is a great show but...
It seems to lack a certain quality sometimes but if you step back and think of the whole series, it was in there somewhere else but since people are not familiar with the episodes when they see so many reruns they don't get into a groove. I don't know... if they were curious to test this an example would be to play it at different time slots but you only play say the first 20 episodes here, the only 20 episodes there, 6 months maybe change it up or start thinking like that so they get used to it piecemeal. Cuz i saw every episodes and then started thinking it was missing something and then 'but it had it here' but then i'm not in the groove. A great way to do it is split it up with liz from hellboy breathing fire on one segment and then the new blonde on the other segment so then it makes the difference clear. Like maybe if it was on an hour split it that way so then they understand right away what is lacking is really not lacking throughout the series.
Because I saw the series the whole way but just catching a few episodes it may be hard to keep certain things in mind. And then it's more humane to the actors because they are getting more steady air time and royalties AKA loyalties so they are more likely to promote the show. It also helps quell any hurt feelings since it's starting to level out and everyone is getting a more consistent fame and they play it an hour at a time when they play it anyway.
