    I ignored this for ages cos it was bound to be one of those over-patriotic teen/soap messes. Then I caught it over the weekend and I thought it was really good. Think it was the 2nd episode. Anyone seen how it progresses on the hinterweb or anything? Am curious about it now. Some great eye-candy too and she doesn't speak in an Eastenders voice! :)

    I really enjoyed it but it was cancelled during the writters strike.

    It didn't even get a full series. It was stopped after 8 I think.
    Ratings were terrible.

    Yep, it got canned after 8 episodes and ends with no closure at all - it did do very poorly in the US and couldn't recreate the success of the Battlestar Galactica remake in the least, which is apparently what they were going for...

    When it was good, it really was quite good. But when it was bad, it was eye-gougingly bad.

    Sadly, the bad parts were more common than the not-so-bad... :(

    Michelle Ryan was a terrible cast choice for the series

    I would have agreed with you until I saw it - she's not bad at all. Nice that she doesn't have the Deadender's accent too! :)

    Thought now it was good..was shaping up to be a very interesting storyline.
    Then it gets canned.
    Why it is all the good shows that get canned?
    Jericho/BM/Firefly etc..stupid reality tv and stupid people who watch it.
