Don't worry. The majority off Trekkers agree with you. Its only TPTB that don't realize that.
Forgive my ignorance, but what does "TPTB" mean? I guess it describes me, because I still like Enterprise and have no plans on giving up on it.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

TPTB = "The Powers that Be". Basically, the people in charge of the show.
Angel actually has a recurring in-joke, in that the entities who send Cordy's visions are called "The Powers that Be".

Wonderfalls and Angel are must see TV for me. After the first ep, Deadwood might be a regular for me along with Sopranos. And I still watch 24, Six Feet Under, Enterprise, Gilmore Girls, Alias, and The OC.

Very familiar with all things Angel, I just misunderstood the context that you used tptb. My mistake.

I watched Enterprise from the beginning; cried when they ended Farscape; enjoyed the last couple episodes of Carnivale and am looking forward to season 2, and my coworkers got me watching the BBC's show Monarch of the Glen; but the only show to have captured me like Firefly is The L Word on Showtime. I've been watching it since the first ep. and I love it. But it is in a totally different category from Firefly - it's not scifi.

The entirety of my TV viewing this year has been:
Angel, Smallville, Alias and 24. I watch the Simpsons when possible, and my wife is tragically, inexplicably addicted to Friends. I resist adding new TV shows to my life, even when I hear raves about, say, Arrested Development.
However, someone posted here on fireflyfans.net Tim Minear's plea to give Wonderfalls a chance. Minute my wife saw it, she loved the main character, we both thought the show was a lot of quirky fun. So there's the answer: The only show I've picked up since Firefly ended is the show Fox now has in the same trap-door time slot.

If I like a show, it is the "kiss of death", so I'm afraid to get attached to anything anymore. I just bought the "Futurama" season three box set; since I already killed that one, I guess it cant hurt.

I started watching Dead Like Me, but it only runs in 13 episode cycles so it's like it gets cancelled between seasons.
And then re-emerges later.

Carnivale. I can't wait for the next season to be released some time in 2005.
Had HBO picked up Firefly, it would still be on the air, albeit with fewer eps per season, but still on at least.
