The gulf war started after its high ratings debut, and it was preempted or dealyed a week at a time for war coverage, leaving viewers lost as to when it would be on. NBC should have given it a second season and reaired season 1 in its entirety over the summer, but chose not to. You can find this bunlded on DVD with Dark Angel season 1 for $20 at Target. Its DVD release is marred by a few things. All the night scenes were shot in the daylight and a filter was used in the show to make it look like night time. They somehow left the filters out on the DVD and all the night scenes are oddly in the sunshine. A second revival was attempted by the WB, but the pilot was not picked up. Probably for the best as the WB/CW was going for a young cast as they do with everything and it felt wrong. This was the best show.
