Season one was onto something, it wasn't the greatest show in the world, but it was new and original in a completely borrowed and unoriginal sort of way. Some of the characters you could really grow fond of, and others you wished they'd just hurry up and kill off. The first season had some mystery and suspense to it. While I wasn't a huge fan, I found it entertaining and enjoyable. Season two felt like a bit of a ripoff, even less original that season one, the story was all over the place, but to give it the benefit of the doubt, blame the writers strike. Season three however has no excuse. It picks up where season two left off, but leaves many season two strings left dangling. Gets a little more original perhaps, but at the same time a whole lot more ridiculous, predictable, and down right retarded.
