Everything has meaning. There are no accidents. Susan ChambleeUp to the halfway point of the episode, I was originally going to complain that the episode wasnt living up to the standards of the previous ones. Boy, was I wrong. The first half was exposition that set up major events to come in this and future episodes. Where to begin? How about the Jump Start? I couldnt understand why everyone had no idea where they were going based on the clues considering that the location was shown on the map in the film.

With the exception of Angel, all have aired on the Fox network and all were cancelled before their time. Cancelled? Sadly, yes. Yet, even though they were only broadcast for a short period of time, fan communities for his shows developed, later to be heartbroken over their cancellation.So here we have Tim creating yet another show for the network that likes to cancel his series.
