A show that had great promise in both its premise and its characters, it soon began to suffer at the hands of the writers, who couldn't seem to decide what the central focus of the storyline should be. While most of the individual episodes were well enough done, the overall story seemed to head off in one given direction for a few episodes, only to stop and stumble off in another direction at seemingly random intervals. Unfortunately, it aired on a major network, whose executives had neither the foresight nor the patience to give this show the time it needed to find its center.
