Joss is just beginning to tell his story. Topher, and others, have a long way to go. Here's hoping that we'll get to see this out to the end.

I say everyone should give every Joss Whedon series at least 2 full seasons for plot and character development. He's such a detail oriented writer that season one would just be full of the background and mythologies. Another season would give us character evolution that we could relate to.

Agreed, she's not gifted. Had it not been for T:SCC Summer Glau would have been perfect for this role. She could do Echo in her sleep and be better than Eliza.

Of course, she's done that type of role before. Still I would prefer Summer any day.

She can act pretty well... but only 1 type of character. Which I guess is another way of saying she really can't act very well. :) But she's got a hot bod', and that covers a multitude of sins.

It is Paul Ballard, the FBI agent, that I don't like. He seems to be wearing blinders and not seeing the whole picture. He seems so one dimensional. I hope Joss will drop him down a manhole or get squashed by a falling piano.

And I agree that Topher did not have a childhood. The episode that has him celebrating his birthday shows him feeding his inner child. The candles on the Twinkie was a great touch. His immature behaviour is because of his lost childhood.

Now to answer the main question of this thread. I am into this show. It takes a while to build the characters and the true theme is just out of our reach as the series continues to drop clues that, to me, were not always so obvious. To fully enjoy this series I would recommend seeing every episode so you know how these people are really tied together.
