At 15 years old, this sci-fi gem beat the odds of cancellation and boldly told stories that could alienate new and old viewers.

It gets much better after season 1.

Season 1 is basically 'monster of the week'. Everything is disconnected, but it's a fun romp through sci-fi.

Season 2 starts the real plot. Things start to connect. They start to leave hints for future episodes, things tie back to previous episodes, and the characters get more complex. It's very well done.

The last season gets a little weird :-)
