...having been spirited off by a suitor who outbid a rival in a heated moment, but by the more prosaic route of having been cancelled. It's a welcome respite for the endearing sci-fi romance and its winning cast, but it does tend to undermine UPN's argument, which is that this is the type of UPN show that inspires devotion in viewers. Just not enough to keep it on the air at another network the same size. (It is a theme of the upfronts, by the way, that statistics can make every network into...

My feeble credit card thankfully is not declined and I am actually able to get my car without an incredible battle, a confusing and enraging argument, or some unexpected monstrous charge. They just run my card and give me the keys and directions how to get to West Yellowstone. Unbelievable...
