I borrowed the set and Epitaph One seems to set up the whole show as a countdown to an apocalypse and leaves the fans wondering if it can be prevented. I don't get why it didn't air. Was it Heroes with stopping an inevitable disaster?

The choice of actors had me squirm at the beginning but I think Whedon doesn't want to have a predictable pool of actors that he uses exclusively.

I missed the snarky humor, too. I saw Tru Calling on SyFy the other day, and realized how long its been since I saw Eliza Dushku on screen.
