If you think they drug that out, then go watch Lost. They haven't resolved things from the first episode, and it just goes on and on..

That's why I liked it. You could have deadly serious moments but then you'd get stuff like Jane saying, "I'll be in my bunk" or the War Stories episode where Mal and Wash are captured and tortured by Niska. The whole scene where they are arguing over Zoe while being tortured is just great.

QFT, great show which had a cool sense of humor while still telling the story and characters so vividly. :)
