I was a fan of the show because it portrayed the characters with both courage and weakness. They weren't the cookie-cutter characters that are portrayed on many sci-fi shows. The episode where they were basically volunteered/hijacked to go on a secret mission that they new nothing about - and it ended up being a "to leave no-one behind" kind of scenario - was very compelling. How could you not be moved by the Johnny Cash song and the pancakes - and more importatntly - their significance. Deeper than alot of its more commercially successful counterparts.
