[QUOTE="John Crichton, post: 610392, member: 4779"] I was just saying that the writing on Alias is better than the writing on Dark Angel. But I agree that the characters weren't all that similar.Oh, I agree completely. I watched it for the stories it told, not for the women. I'm not saying they should have, but they could have marketed it using the women as "bait." We all know Fox isn't beyond that kind of thing. ;) And I thought [b]Birds of Prey[/b] was done badly. I had hope for that show and they didn't follow through on making the characters that interesting. To me anyway. I'm not surprised it hasn't been picked up either. I was hoping it would, but this is just another show in the history of shows that was cut down either in its prime or before it could grow. :( This one just hurts a bit more because Joss has proven in the past that his shows get much better after their first seasons. I considered Firefly as close to a lock as one could get to being an excellent show. I guess Fox wasn't watching the same program. [/QUOTE]
