Just watched the first two painful episodes and have finally come to the conclusion that it’s eventual demise was absolutely justified. Apparently it was another FOX fuckup and was later picked up by Sci Fi Channel and played in the states endlessly before coming over to the UK. Not the best of imports!
I guess what wound me up the most is that it started off quite well then deteriorated rapidly with mindless kid tricks (look at me I can levitate, so I must be a cool alien, right?)
