My Tivo is still getting episodes that I haven't seen yet, and I'm still interested enough to watch, so apparently it's good enough.
I will say I have a hard time reconciling the whole western meets space aspect. and the props look really low budget at times, especially the cheesy guns. I also think a lot of their villains are lame.
It's actually made me wonder if I shouldn't give some of the other sci-fi series a shot. I've never given shows like Stargate a chance, but maybe should reconsider.

I haven't heard much about Stargate, but people rave about the new Battlestar Gallactica. Haven't seen either, but I plan to check out BSG sometime on DVD.
