    While the series premiere was pretty poor, I gave it another chance, and I actually think it's gotten to be a pretty good show. While the series premiere was pretty poor, I gave it another chance, and I actually think it's gotten to be a pretty good show. It's certainly not on the level of Battlestar Galactica or Eureka, but the show has heart and a growing sense of humor. I think this show merits a little patience.
