So now I have another Fox show with a renewal to fret about. Let's forget dangerous precedents for the moment, though, and celebrate a splendid first season. Unspoilery, I can say that what impressed me most and hit my narrative kinks is the ensembleness of it all. This show has a knack for a) giving its regulars interesting personalities and interesting relationships with each other (instead of, you know, relying on the audience having vague fond memories of the movies), b) making its non-regular, guest star characters memorable, using them well and giving them also interesting relationships with the regulars, and c) choosing ambiguity over predictability several times over.

Spoilery comments ensue )
