Why was this so bad when Firefly, Buffy, and Angel were so unbelievably good? Well, for starters it lacked Whedon's trademark HUMOR. The premise was so dark that there was no room for the kind of witty banter and hilarious references within the dialogue that we've come to expect from Joss' shows.

    Not sure at what point the show got cancelled, because I don't think the production got a chance to properly finish up. A fantastic series, otherwise.
