Hey just wanna say, myself being a huge Buffy and Angel fan, logan and max are nothing like Buffy and Angel. at least buffy and angel got it on and didnt have a mysterious virus so they couldnt touch eacher other. I like Dark Angel, i havnt finished the 2nd season yet but nearly, but at least buffy had other relationships such as Riley and Spike. I wish Max could of moved on, preferably Alec since he is really hot and logan is a bit of a sissy. I was dissapointed when i first started watching the second season, i think its better then the first season though, that would just get to together already and then they didnt, then there was hope when Alec came along but i guess not. he's so hot. thatnx for your time

That's a fair point there I suppose, but to be honest, I never really saw anything happening with Max and Alec (although I agree he is GORGEOUS). And I really think you should check out Freak Nation, as Logan really comes into his own (ie. is less of a sissy).
I have to disagree with you though on the S1/S2 front. I love S1, and although S2 does have some amazing eps (Berrisford Agenda, Freak Nation etc.) there are just too many OTT transgenics running about.
And of course we'll give you our time we Browncoats/ DA fans are lovely people!

I know nothing could happen between max and alec - since he kinda looks exactly like her X5 brother - but i just wish- yeah a lot of people do like season one more but i just think season 2 is more interesting story line, plus the White is a hot hottie, while lydecker is kinda dud in the look deparment

Late to this thread, but here are my thoughts on Dark Angel. First, the 1st season was fantastic. I rate it with a 9/10. Not one bad ep in there. I just found it to be great story writing with some real good action in it, interesting characters and Lydecker to be a great & complex villian. Plus, anything Jessica Alba's in is certainly worth watching, especially when she's kicking butt. I really dug James Cameron's vision in this season and thought the show had real potential to be a great show.
Season 2 had it's bright spots, but overall was a major step down for the series. Overall, it just went way too X-Filesish for my taste (while I'm a big X-Files fan). Too many FOW eps and most of them besides Alec and Joshua were pretty bad. The season had a couple decent eps in the beginning, but really trailed off in the middle. The last 4 or 5 eps as I remember managed to pull it's self together and ended decent. I thought it deserved a 3rd season after the way it ended, but unfortunetly the bad eps in the middle doomed the show. I rate it about a 6 to a 7,not quite sure where it stands in that range.
I really wish James Cameron would resurrect this franchise with Jessica Alba and do a movie and have some closure to the series (quite like Firefly and Serenity). With her star power, plus James Cameron would I think no doubt be a smash hit. It seems in some recent interviews she really enjoyed doing the series and playing Max, so I'd think she'd be up for it if he was doing the movie. One can dream, can't they?
