I haven't heard anything on a second season.How is Numb3rs sci-fi/fantasy genre television?Dresden, Painkiller Jane, and Flash Gordon all suffer, I believe, from a "budget" look and feel to them. There's a certain lack of visual appeal (and more often than not, always seem to be filmed on overcast days), and without really, really good performances and stories to overcome this, to me they often seem doomed from the start in a competitive television market. Dresden was starting to rise above a bit for me in the last few episodes, but apparently not enough to overcome its flagging ratings.Flash, however... when a story starts reaching for sci-fi cliches like the protagonist fighting with his double (and someone having to figure out which one to shoot) within just a few episodes... well, that's just a bad sign.By contrast, Eureka has a better "look" to it, whether set design or camera work, great acting and interesting stories, plus a well developed sense of humor. This show is deservedly doing well.</blockquote>
