Rygel looks a lot like my exceedingly stupid grey cat. Therefore, I cannot hate Rygel, for Rygel is the Ohm.
I'm in the camp that doesn't hold with judging the merits of something based on a short career that appeared to hold limitless potential. Doesn't work for me in horse racing, nor in TV.
Though, for whatever it's worth, I think the heights of AtS were higher than those of Firefly. Home totally trumps Out of Gas. (Of course, Home is a near-perfect hour of television, bless that beagle man.)
Oh my, how I loved Cam.
Right with you there. (Quelle surprise, I know...) The man had amazing dedication to his sport. The only criticism I can level against him is that he had Jim Carrey's throat right there in his hand and passed on the opportunity.

At least Tim trumped himself. I'm sure he wouldn't object to this argument. "No, it's Tim's witty dialogue that is his great strength!" "You're fucking nuts! It's his narrative structure and inventive direction!"

Does this lead to mud wrestling?
I may have seen too many beer commercials in my life.

Heee! Well, and his restaurant on the Vineyard was mediocre at best. I blame Glenn Close for that though, and while we're on it, what the heck was up with that? Glenn Close? Cam's such a hottie.

Amen.
Origin,
and
Not Fade Away
pushed all the right buttons for me, too. My watching during S5 was sporadic at best. I can't wait for the DVDs. I still feel like I have new Angel coming.
My memory says he never actually got to play for the Celtics - I think it may have been something like a month before, not after.
IIRC (and I was at UNC, which is in the same conference, in 1985), it was right after the Celtics drafted him. As in, he took the cocaine that night while celebrating the draft.
WSFS, the World Science Fiction Society has been awarding the science fiction and fantasy Hugo Awards annually since 1953. Since 2003 Best Dramatic Presentation has been split into: BDP: Long Form and BDP: Short Form (under 90 minutes).
With Joss-TV on the air there was no shortage Short Form finalists: "Serenity," "Waiting in the Wings" and "Conversations with Dead People," which won the 2003 Hugo; and three of five finalists for 2004: "Chosen," "The Message" and "Heart of Gold," which all lost to a DVD Easter egg.
For 2005, there is the part of Angel season five that aired first in 2004--I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around the concept of Enterprise, Andromeda or Stargate SG-1 with a Hugo. If you had a vote, which of those Angel episodes would you nominate?
Assuming I haven't overlooked an absolutely brilliant Sci-Fi original that clocks in at 86 minutes.
"Not Fade Away" and "Hole in the World" would be safely in the 2005 bracket, right? I'd nominate those.
I also might go ahead and cosider the (second half of the) pilot of
Lost
a fantasy show.

The first half had the perpetual motion jet. And SuperJack, for that matter.
"Smile Time" aired in March 2004, didn't it?
Also, let's not forget that Wonderfalls was fairly fantastic, in at least 3 senses of the word.
