My favorite show of all time. They went a little too sci-fi at times and left a lot of questions unanswered but it is still the greatest show warts and all. I implore you to stick with it until at least the end of season 3 if you lose interest.

I think it's a show that wanes and then gets a heck of a lot better. It got a second wind once it knew it was gonna end and had a definite end date. I don't think it resolved every little thing, but once it got narrative momentum going in the final season, it was pretty impressive. And the S3 finale is great. It's odd, S3 has the best group of episodes, but I think its the weakest season overall. The first half of S3 is a bit of a chore.

I've never gotten this line of thinking. I feel like the people who watched it live and live and died with every scene got WAY too caught up in tiny, minute, trivial little details that don't matter one iota. Some people want every..single..thing to have some explanation or backstory, that simply isn't feasible. I think all the BIG questions did get answered for the most part. They may not have been answered to everyone's liking, or even in a way that made sense, but I think most questions were answered that actually needed to answered.

And before you ask "well then how do you explain THIS!?", I don't remember near enough about the show as I used to and would defer to OML who does, and also this is a thread for a new watcher so we don't need spoilers here.
