Yup. It has been getting better, but it's too late now I think...

Fingers crossed as I think its pretty good.

Hmm. Very doubtful, IMO.

That article was from before it returned after its stupidly long hiatus... and the ratings in the US have been falling & falling week by week... The ratings weren't too hot before the break either, but now they're truly awful.

Highly unlikely it will be renewed, even with international success.

On Ausiello's Renewal scorecard it is now down as "Now a long shot.".

I did like this week's episode... the series is definitely at its best when it concentrates on the actual main story, rather than boring & pointless filler such as Cancer Doctor's search for Japanese Girl, etc. I want to know WTF is going on with the blackout etc., not whether some guy is gonna meet some girl in a sushi restaurant.

I hope that the producers admit to themselves that it is unlikely to have a second season, & actually tie the whole thing up properly by the end. I really hate it when one-season shows end on cliffhangers.
