Most underrated show ever

NBC shouldn't have let this show go. It is by far the most underrated Television series ever. I think that the first 2/3 of the season it was on was worth a ten and after that it was worth a 6 and because of the drop in quality the show lost viewers. The cliff hangers however ALWAYS made me keep watching it. It often takes series 2 or 3 seasons to get an audience and to build. The problem with TV is that these shows usally get axed early. Earth2 is an example of what's wrong with the TV industry.
