@Andy Taylor - the programme had lost me as a viewer by that point. Bored stiff! Might wait until I can see a box-set and watch it from beginning to end. Lengthy, slow and dull episodes a week apart really didn't do it for me!

This has been renewed for a second season? Really?
I'll admit, I really enjoyed the pilot episode. It was beautifully moving and very different to anything else on TV at the time. However by about episode four or five, the plot had not moved on one bit, every episode was painfully slow and introduced a whole range of new characters who never appeared again. I gave up watching then as I found it almost impossible to stay awake during an episode. I wasn't looking for major action sequences or shocks and surprises, but a tiny bit of plot development and more of a thread running through the episodes would have been good. Can't believe it's been renewed. It was really bad!

The plot developed pretty fast after Danny Glover's character was killed.
