After a shaky start in season 1, I had actually grown to really like the show and was disappointed to hear that FOX would not be bringing it back - especially with Jane Espenson joining the writing/producing team. So, colour me excited when they announced the show would be returning with the first two episodes of the never aired season 2 tonight, followed over the next four weeks by the remainder of the shows they produced before giving it the axe (and justifying FOX selling the season 2 DVD set which I'm expecting to hear about any day now).Happy as I was to see the show again, I have to say I got a little bored with it halfway through the first episode. Heck, I'm writing this while watching episode 2, so it can't be too gripping, right? I kind of feel like they've gone back to the beginning with the explaining and the restating of the show's premise and the character relationships. It took 6 or 7 episodes for me to get interested in the first season and, considering there is only 6 episodes of season 2, I'm hoping the viewing curve is less pronounced this time around.
Jane's episode will be coming up soon, so I'll comment again when that happens.
