It also had some major cliffhanger-y aspects. The creators said they knew it was cancelled when they made that last episode... but then they also gave out dribs and drabs about how they wanted to follow up on it in the 2nd season. So who knows?Cygnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394890573443379954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63753090450546412.post-86770694340590892272013-11-04T05:58:15.095-07:002013-11-04T05:58:15.095-07:00My faves were th colonel Buts and final episodes. ...My faves were th colonel Buts and final episodes.

Nevermind, I'm extremely lazy, I could probably check that myself, LOL... 2) Since it was only one season long, did it have a good ending or did it end on a cliffhanger?Remembering Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14760441035721518260noreply@blogger.com
