thank goodness.  This show is great, and I figured it might go the way of Stargate universe, firefly, or any of the other great sci fi shows that got canceled way too early.

I am still watching it because summer is kinda dead anyways but it's not "great" by any stretch of the word, it's "worth a watch" though IMO.  With all the other crap on TV, this is definitely not so bad compared. :)

Same here. It's much better than a lot of the crap on these days.

Good to hear about season 4 but I also feel that it's going to have to end soon. I don't think they can drag it out to, say, 8 seasons. Maybe 5 tops would be a good number, though each season is short episode wise, it's not a 24ep season.

I should really get around to watching this again. I stopped like 2 or 3 episodes into season 2. How has the show progressed? Is it better/same/worse than it was in the first season?

I thought it got a little weird when Tom was elected President only to find out that the government was intact. Then the colonel had to take orders from him. I'd rather see if with the colonel (forgot his name lol) back in charge but the show has been great al along. I love Pope!

Agreed on the CGI. I almost can't even tell if the fish heads are CGI or just costumes.
